THE HISTORY
Eyvind Boyesen, president and founder, started a performance revolution in 1972 on a shoestring budget and a single patent in hand. He used reed induction technology, in combination with his patented dual-stage reed, to produce instantly stunning results. Motorcycles using Boyesen reeds were consistently outperforming bikes using other modes of intake induction. On and off the race track circuit, the Boyesen name became equated with superior performance, quality, and service.
From those first days, applications for Boyesen technology have expanded to include intake products for watercraft, snowmobiles, and outboard marine engines. Manufacturing has been and continues to be perfected with painstaking precision and care, insuring the highest quality standards for the ultimate in trouble free performance. Through licensing agreements, technology designed and patented by Boyesen is built into two-stroke engines around the world. More than two decades and many patents later, motorcycle racers and motorsport enthusiasts around the world have turned Boyesen Engineering into a company serving people on six continents. Because of his dual-stage reed innovation, Eyvind Boyesen became known as the "Reed Man" throughout the industry. Never content with "good enough," this Norwegian born inventor has been obsessed with the desire for continual improvement. Man made inventions, such as the internal combustion engine, could never be said to "have arrived" at perfection. The reason is that human inventiveness is never static but is always capable of achieving new insights and a better understanding of the dynamic forces of energy and matter. This explains the motivating principle behind the company: to bring creative engineering solutions into the marketplace.
MOVING FORWARD
With factories such as Kawasaki and Yamaha integrating Boyesen's technology into their production bikes, the list of top-level racers who have fielded Boyesen technology is simply awesome. Racers spanning the likes of John Dowd, Bob Hannah, Jeremy McGrath, Chad Reed, James Stewart and most recently Ryan Villopoto are among those who have trusted Boyesen's technology as a part of their winning formulas.
