B & B Racing

For owners restoring an older scooter or motorcycle, finding someone who can repair a worn component can matter more than locating a replacement. B & B Racing, on North Woodlawn Avenue in Metairie, specializes in engine and transmission machine work, including parts for vintage Mustang and Cushman scooters. Its workshop handles the kind of detailed repair that older vehicles often require.

Services include welding damaged engine and transmission cases, repairing inner and outer primary covers, and restoring cylinder heads, including broken cooling fins. The business also works on carburetor components and tests engines before sending them back to customers. Examples of its work include rebuilt vintage Harley-Davidson heads, a Linkert carburetor, and repair of a worn throttle shaft on an S&S unit.

B & B Racing is not a conventional scooter showroom; its strength is specialized machining and mechanical restoration. The shop has experience handling projects shipped from outside the region, including international work. For someone caring for a Cushman, Mustang, or another older machine with hard-to-find parts, the ability to rebuild a component can help keep an otherwise stalled restoration moving forward.
