I sent my motor to Varner in May of this year, don’t have it back and can’t get a hold of this guy. Should have done some more research to save myself this massive headache. Been calling this guy non stop for the past 2 months, only answered my call once. My situation is still not as bad as some others on here and I’m fucking frustrated. For those of you on here that have had this same problem, has anyone gone to his shop and tried getting it back in person. Have an annual trip coming up this March and need this motor back.

Why don't you go to his shop and find out what's going on, its not that far from Hollister.

That’s my plan for this coming weekend, was wondering if someone else has done the same. Last option really, got a hold of him last week and scheduled a phone call update with terry for today at 10:00 AM. Have called 30 times today, no answer

This is unbelievable, how can this guy show his face at race tracks with BS like this happening?

Not a suggestion at all, but at this point, I'm really surprised no one yet has gone to his shop to kick his ass.

Genuine question for people missing motors before people show up to his shop:

Do you know for sure he still has your motor, and didn’t send it to someone else or sell it?

Because that seems like a veeeeery good reason to avoid communication. Just figure that would be worth looking into but judging by this thread NOBODY knows what’s going on with their equipment.

He’s aware of the thread and asked the OP to take it down, rather than coming on here and explaining his actions. That tells me all that I need to know.

I’ve sat back for a couple days now watching this thread without commenting. I posted here in this thread for people to see help was available and, for everyone else I’m friends with to hold me accountable to my word. However, I have not once gotten a pm from anybody. I sent out two PMs and no response. For the third time tonight, my family has asked, do the guys want their engines back or not. Both my cousin and uncle have said, if I had an opportunity to get my engine back after waiting so long, fuck waiting till after the holidays, please get my shit!
I’m kind of at a loss myself not knowing whether to just say screw it, I gave you a chance or sit back and wait for that message at someone else’s convenience. Holidays or not, a simple hey, got the message, I’ll touch base with you soon and my name is whatever. Or, thanks but, no thanks.
8 days ago I said, we’d help. I know my post has been seen yet, nothing. The guy willing to go out of his way for the sake of decency really shouldn’t have to be the one reaching out, looking for updates within this thread and wondering if this is a waste of our time.

I didn’t care if it was one engine or ten. We were willing to make a run for you guys.

Any thoughts?

The problem is, situations like this can quite easily escalate. Sending people around for such a matter who've you've not even met can potentially create a legal risk that might not be the reward for an old dirtbike engine.

You might be right. Its sad that this thread has been going so long, with no resolution and the mx industry pulling the wool over customers eyes so they unknowingly walk off a cliff

I was bored so I went back through this thread to see who posted they were waiting on Varner, below are the results:

Kowalczyk579 - Started the thread and eventually got his motor parts back, I believe it was 9 months.
wadmaster11 - Got his back eventually after close to 2 years
cmotodad - Got his back after a couple months
607 Collective - Still waiting after 2 years.
EJRACING - Lives in Norway and after a year is still waiting.
jswalter4729 - Been waiting since May of this year.


I would say it wasn't just one person who had problems with Varner, there were others who posted long delays but just chalked it up to doing business with him.

I've come to the conclusion that if Tom Morgan retires I will ride stock bikes.

Thanks for Chance1216 and his family for making an effort to help.

I had a long talk with Terry the day before Christmas. It appears we have a resolution in the works for after the New Year. He sent pictures of the motor. I could see my serial number. So it's there.

I won't go into details about the resolution till it's done.

Again many of you are now getting what has happened. And a lot of non related posts aren't happening.
