19.01.2022 Hello everyone Just to let you know Michelle couldnt handle the pressure made by closing us down so she has put Robinson Precision Engines into the hands of a liquidator. Anyone who needs to collect their jobs here is the number of Graeme Brown, the liquidator. ... 68841077 0488 435 265 What can I say but sorry.

17.01.2022 Hello again I have been doing some soul searching and listening to your comments. Without sounding conceited and egotistical, I am sensing many of you will be sorry to see my skills lost and the availability of my work in the community. So, for me to get going again, maybe some of you might like to purchase some equipment at the impending auction and loan it to me for a while or be an investor in a new company. We could also consider some type of community shed....... What do you think... You can message me on 0408 639 666 Please share this post

17.01.2022 Corey Forde on the Hulk CB1200 at the IFOS 2017 Period 4 Unlimited Great start to the races with a win, close finish with Dean Oughtred as usual. Bit of a different front view that could do with improving...next time

16.01.2022 The Vader did P6 at Qualifying but we clocked the second highest top speed The Force is Strong in this one..

14.01.2022 Russell Dunn and Tom White on the RPE Racing powered P4 Unlimited - Second Place P4 IFOS 2017 This sidecar has plenty of racing pedigree and did amazing on its first outing Powered by the only 1300cc Honda Engine with stock crank in the world... Methanol beast pumps out 130+ rwhp and spins the little 10" wheel with ease...120ftlb+ torque Engine was awesome and did the meeting with ease so was the sidecar owned and maintained by Russell Racing agains Doug Chivas and Scoobie Breen...great pace and great sidecar....couldnt be more different! Needs much longer gearing desperately...tops out 1/3 down the straight

14.01.2022 Corey Forde #22 aboard "the Hulk" CB1200 at the 2017 Island Classic Race one against Dean Oughtred (#88) and Simon Cook (#40) all on Honda CB750 - P4 Unlimited Corey qualified 1st with a 1:49,5 on Friday.... We finished 2nd overall with 3 wins and a DNF on race 2 due to crash. Dean was the winner once again!

14.01.2022 The wheelie man himself - Corey Forde #22 on his way to his first win at the International Festival of Speed aboard the HULK. Corey did an awesome job on the bikes all weekend, not putting a foot wrong at all! We are proud to have such a great rider and friend. Great weekend all around with 3 wins out of 5 races + Ken Wootton memorial trophy on the Honda and third in P5 Unlimited on his GPZ 1100 Kawa.... On the RPE Racing CB1300 powered sidecar Russell Dunn and Tom White came second P4 unlimited on their first outing behind Doug Chivas and Scoobie Breen. This sidecar is powered by our first 1300cc stock crank CB engine. Its a wild engine to say the least but didnt miss a beat all weekend! We had gearbox issues with the FZR which forced an early retirement but we shall have our revenge. Videos to come so stay tuned! Special thanks to the photographers who took these cool pics!

13.01.2022 Dearest family, friends, customers and members of the community. I just want to put some rumours to rest. An unfortunate event, which many of you are already aware of, took place on the 8th of January, which has lead to the closing of Robinson Precision Engines. Michelle Robinson, Director of the company since 2011, without notice has shut the doors of the business I initiated thirty years ago. Her reason for her vindictive actions was I quote "you have not paid me some spo...use maintenance payments and my criminal lawyer told me to do this". There are now five workers unemployed without notice, and who are finding it difficult to apply for any kind of benefit because their request for termination notices and separation certificates have been ignored. In this case the rights of the workers have completely been ignored and my lifes work and reputation has been destroyed. I have made countless efforts to try and keep the business afloat and to keep this skilled business available to our valued customers. There were matters in discussion involving a property settlement but Michelle has decided to take matters regarding RPE into her own hands. For those of you who know me I have lived and breathed in the factory for many years. I have accumulated many personal possessions, some of which I was given a few hours to remove on the day, after a battle to do so. There is still much more to retrieve which Michelle claims as hers. For those of you who think you can get a good deal by purchasing some of the equipment for cash, please be aware of who owns it. I have been advised Michelle has been offering stuff for a quick buck. For the customers whos jobs, Michelle had no consideration for when she decided to do this, my sincere apologies; this was not a well thought out plan. I never wanted this to happen and If you need to discuss your current Job please call 02 6331 1533, solicitors in care of Michelle Robinson, as it is the only contact I have as I have been informed not to speak with any customers. I would also like to take this opportunity to deny the rumours Michelle and others have been making and spreading throughout the community, about me being involved in a sexual relationship with men. This is completely false! I would like the people involved who claim they have witnessed such events to be prepared as I and others are taking legal action. Michelle will not resolve these issues with a bottle of vodka! Hugh
