SBT Bendix

Greg Pickren founded SBT, Inc. in 1997 and built the company to become the largest supplier of aftermarket jet ski (PWC) parts in the world. Mr. Pickren, at the time a seasoned industry professional in the automotive parts business, was intrigued by the fact that there were no suppliers of remanufactured engines for PWCs. After studying the intricacies of the PWC market, SBT was launched. Although Mr. Pickren was not a PWC expert at the time, the concept would mimic what had been done for decades in the automotive business - high quality remanufactured engines for a fraction of the price of new engines. With little fanfare, a factory was built and the groundwork was laid for what would become the largest PWC aftermarket parts company in the world.
