Allen Alvarez
Allen’s passion for motorcycles combined with a solid work ethic has defined the last 45 years of his life. Allen worked his way from a young parts dealer to owner of Daytona Twin Tec, in 2001. Allen has developed an extensive network of friends in the industry and he recalls a time when he personally covered a small shop’s spring order so they could get on their feet, “I helped whoever I could,” he said.
Allen has had a hand in the success of so many businesses. What others tried to do and failed at, Allen made happen. What’s the secret to his success? “It’s not because I had a background in any of this. But I was already in the door. There was no one calling on the shops like I did. I went into places no one would go into and I treated everyone the same.”
The fact that Allen remains friends with so many of the people he’s met in his 45 years in motorcycling is a testament to that.
