“Do it right, do it clean, and treat every bike like it’s your own.”
Russ is the driving force behind Fuel Powersports — a lifelong rider, hands‑on mechanic, and respected leader with over 30 years in the moto industry. From supporting the Colorado powersports community to becoming a full‑scale shop owner, Russ has dedicated his life to keeping riders riding.
His journey started long before Fuel Powersports opened its doors. Russ spent decades wrenching and helping riders across Colorado, showing up at events, supporting families, and keeping machines running when people needed it most. That real‑world experience shaped the foundation of Fuel: honest work, expert craftsmanship, and a deep respect for the riding community.
Russ is known for:
-
diagnosing bikes by sound
-
fixing what other shops miss
-
building long‑term relationships with riders
-
supporting the local moto community
-
decades of hands‑on experience leading to full shop ownership
Fuel Powersports is the natural evolution of Russ’s lifelong commitment to the sport — a place built by a rider, for riders.
When he’s not in the shop, Russ is a “Papi,” a devoted family man, a proud 20+ year retired Army veteran, and a retired oil field manager. His discipline, grit, and work ethic come from a lifetime of service and hands‑on experience — the same values that fuel every decision he makes at Fuel Powersports.
Three decades in the moto world. A lifetime of doing things the right way. That’s Russ.
