Bob Stultz
Pro-Street Performance, Inc.

When Bob Stultz walked into the UNI Regional Business Center, he believed his experience, ambition, and vision would lead to one thing: owning his own business. This dream, common to many prospective entrepreneurs who walk through the RBC doors, materialized for Bob when he opened Pro-Street Performance in 2001.

Bob had made his living as a hired performance specialist and always wanted to be in business for himself with a specialty unique to his skills and his market. He had the reputation and resources necessary, but he sought the services of the RBC to help him better understand financial management and organization. Avriel Davis, RBC client services manager, walked him through his specific bookkeeping needs, sent him home with a list of recommendations, and referred him to Krisalis, Inc., a local Waterloo company that specializes in Professional Organizing.

Bob liked the fact that Avriel could point him in the right direction for financing and help him through the business planning process. His only complaint is that she hasn't taken him to lunch yet.

Besides the Harley Davidson V-twin performance work and being a supplier for after-market Harley Davidson motorcycle parts, a specialization in V-8 race engines and an in-house Super Flow SF-901 Dynamometer (for v-twins to v-8's) makes building performance engines second to none. Pro-Street Performance, Inc. can do research & development testing for you as well.

When asked what has been his greatest challenge, Bob responded, "making ends meet and organization". He wants all up and coming entrepreneurs to know that there is more to owning your own business than meets the eye. Make it your passion, and the rest will fall into place. Bob has a beautiful wife and 3 great children, and in February they will be blessed with number 4. He is wise enough to know that the love of this family and his constant appreciation for the support they give are truly what makes Pro-Street Performance's strive for success so rewarding.

Bob was asked, "If you had to do it all over again, would you?" His response: "YOU BET! One of the greatest rewards of this business is producing the fastest bikes for the street or strip."
