My name is Rich Gagnon.  I began racing Hodakas in 1972 on a Super Rat and shortly after the search for more power. I started doing porting for the local Hodaka shop in 1975.  Soon I got to know Harry Taylor and through this friendship he made it possible for me to increase my knowledge and skill in two-stroke porting. He has been more than helpful and has allowed me to incorporate his name in my Taylor’d porting service.
