About Hanshaw Engines
Hanshaw Racing Engines is committed to building the fastest most reliable engines possible. We specialize in building custom engines that will meet your specific needs.
We especially understand the needs of our customers that compete in professional competition as Jamie Hanshaw is a 3-time GLRRA National Champion. In 1998, he finished 8th in the 750 race and 10th in the 600 race at Mid Ohio in the AMA Supersport races on a 600, which was the top-finishing privateer both times.
Jamie's professional life off the track has also been very successful. He currently holds two patents, one defensive publication, and one PACE award all relating to specific engine technologies in his name. He's a highly decorated and celebrated talent within the industry.
Throughout the course of his engine building, he's built over 150 motors, ranging from SV650's, to 600's, to 1000's and just about anything else. He's built motors for former Isle of Mann TT champion Shaun Harris, as well as for Rad Greaves.
Rad rode a 1585cc Hayabusa that made 225hp on a Dynojet dyno. With that machine, Rad went 200.8mph down the front straight at Brainerd International Raceway in 2003, which was the first time anyone went over 200mph on a closed-circuit course during an AMA Superbike race.
Hanshaw Testimonials
"Jamie has been building my motors for the past 4 seasons. I race of couple of second gen. SV 650's. One is a supersport and the other is a nice superbike. When he was refreshing the SB a couple of months ago, he noticed the cases were worn out. He went out of his way and searched on e-bay and found a set out west. Jamie is truly a standup engine builder. This past fall I took a job transfer down in Memphis,TN. I plan on still using Jamie for all my motor needs. Give him a call, you won't regret it!"

"Jamie's an extremely stand up guy. He goes above and beyond the normal call of duty to make sure his customer's are happy with his work. The results speak for themselves with the motor he built for our program this past year. His motors are incredibly fast, reliable and Jamie is a great guy to deal with throughout the entire process."
- Eddie Kraft, Ex. #48
Dear Jamie - Thank you again for all the work on the '06 1000 GSXR engine. Our first race to break in the new motor was at Daytona Speedway for Oktoberfest CCS races. It pulled unbelievably on the straights and was perfectly at home at 190 mph. Bear in mind the straights are 37 seconds long and the motor had endless power. In an Unlimited class race we were edged only in the last 25 feet at the finish line by a 2011 BMW. We are extremely pleased with your work and look forward to the next engine coming out of your shop.
Look forward to seeing you soon. Have a great New year.

Hi Jamie- The motor you built for me is fantastic no leaks and runs strong! Attached you will find the results sheets for this past weekend - Double Regional Race/Quali Sat Race/Quali Sun. By the way a Goodyear tire engineer came by my garage and wants me to help develop tires for the F1000 championship series and the FK1 Championship series.
He scooped out your logo on the front of my car (Hanshaw Racing Engines). I explained that you are my engine builder, so I hope this brings you business, both championship series' run 1000 Motorcycle engines.
Thanks again! Great Job!

From what I have heard from others and from the limited amount of time I have spent talking to you, I trust you. If you say I want it...then lets make it happen. I will have you a check in the mail next week.

Dear Jamie - Just wanted to say thank you for an awesome rebuild on my '06 R6. This thing is a beast. The power you gave it makes it untouchable with the other 600's I ride with. I had it on the track for a track day at Mid-Ohio and as I exited the keyhole for the long straight I noticed two RC51s behind me...well that's where they stayed. At Grattan, I got by other 600's with ease and chasing and passing them like they were mild-tuned 600's. The guy that dynoed my bike is well known in the high performance bike scene, and said this is the highest horsepower 600 he's dynoed. It runs on pump fuel. Jamie, you will be my sole builder for this engine as I have had other so-called "builders" try to set it up and could not come close to the beast I ride now. Just at idle it sounds strong and tough, and on the pipe it's wicked.
