EXPERT MECHANICS WHO HELP YOU GET THE BEST OUT OF YOUR BIKE
Upside Down Racing was born the same way most great motorcycle stories are — at the track with good friends, adrenaline, and a little chaos.
During a track day, one of my buddies high-sided his bike in front of the group. Later that day, someone joked, “You’re not supposed to race upside down.” The name stuck instantly.
What started as an inside joke quickly became something bigger — a brand built around the passion for motorcycles, track culture, wrenching late nights in the garage, and pushing machines to perform at their best.
Today, Upside Down Racing is more than a name. It represents the riders, builders, and enthusiasts who live for the process — from maintenance and performance upgrades to detailing and preparing bikes for the next ride, track day, or photoshoot.
A brand built by riders, for riders.

Chris Bedont - Owner & Operator
With over 4 years of hands-on experience working on motorcycles and automotive platforms, Upside Down Racing is built on real-world knowledge, quality workmanship, and genuine passion for the industry.
Founder Chris Bedont attended WyoTech in Laramie, Wyoming, where he studied Automotive Technology and High Performance Powertrain. Since then, he has earned multiple ASE certifications along with Toyota manufacturer certifications while gaining professional experience at both a Toyota dealership and a specialized off-road/lift shop.
From routine maintenance and diagnostics to performance upgrades, suspension work, and custom installs, Chris has worked on nearly every major motorcycle and automotive brand on the road today. With a strong background around Yamaha platforms and over two years of track riding experience, Upside Down Racing understands motorcycles from both the rider’s and technician’s perspective.
What sets Upside Down Racing apart is simple — clean work, honest communication, and making sure the job is done right the first time. Long before the business officially existed, side work and helping fellow riders was already a constant part of the lifestyle.
This isn’t just another shop. It’s rider-built experience backed by real industry training, professional certifications, and years of hands-on wrenching.
