Automate V-twin and Harley-Davidson parts from Drag Specialties directly into your Shopify store with automated catalog, inventory, and order sync.
Request ConsultationAbout Drag Specialties
Drag Specialties, a division of LeMans Corporation, is the world's largest distributor of aftermarket parts and accessories for Harley-Davidson and custom V-twin motorcycles. Their FatBook catalog is one of the most comprehensive references in the V-twin aftermarket, and they serve thousands of dealers across the US and Canada from the same warehouse network as their sister brand Parts Unlimited.
The Problem
Managing Drag Specialties products manually doesn't scale
Deep V-twin fitment requirements
Harley-Davidson and V-twin parts require precise year/model fitment — Sportster, Softail, Touring, and Dyna all have different part compatibility, and models change across eras.
Massive FatBook catalog
The Drag Specialties FatBook is one of the largest catalogs in powersports. Importing and maintaining that volume of product data in Shopify manually is not feasible.
Premium brand pricing complexity
V-twin aftermarket products span budget to premium tiers. MAP policies, dealer cost tiers, and brand-specific pricing rules vary widely across Drag Specialties' catalog.
Event-driven demand spikes
Rally season — Sturgis, Daytona Bike Week, Laconia — drives massive demand surges. Without frequent inventory sync, you oversell the hottest parts right when riders are buying.
Off-the-shelf software falls short
Generic integration tools weren't built for V-twin fitment data or the Drag Specialties FatBook catalog structure. You'll spend more time on workarounds than selling parts.
Why Custom
Generic integration software wasn't built for your supplier
Built for your supplier's data
Every supplier has a different feed format, update schedule, and set of quirks. A custom integration handles yours exactly — no workarounds.
No fighting generic middleware
Off-the-shelf tools are built for the average case. You'll spend weeks configuring them only to hit limitations that block your launch.
Scales with your catalog
Whether you carry 500 SKUs or 100,000, a custom integration is built for your volume from day one — no performance cliffs or pricing tiers.
We maintain it for you
When your supplier changes their feed or Shopify ships an API update, we handle it. You never touch a line of code.

Case Study
We built a custom integration for Toys “R” Us that syncs product catalogs and inventory levels from multiple wholesale suppliers directly into their Shopify store, eliminating manual data entry and keeping the storefront accurate around the clock.
The integration handles thousands of SKUs across suppliers, automatically updating products, pricing, images, and stock levels so the storefront always reflects what's actually available.

FAQ
Common questions about the Drag Specialties integration
How does the Drag Specialties Shopify integration work?
We build a custom integration that connects Drag Specialties' product catalog and inventory feeds directly to your Shopify store. Products, images, fitment data, pricing, and stock levels can sync automatically.
Can I select which Drag Specialties products to import into Shopify?
Yes. Filter by product category, Harley model family, brand, or any other attribute to import only the Drag Specialties products that fit your store's niche.
How often does Drag Specialties inventory sync with Shopify?
Inventory can sync multiple times per day so your Shopify store reflects accurate stock levels. During rally season, we can increase frequency to reduce overselling on fast-moving parts.
Can I route Shopify orders to Drag Specialties automatically?
Yes. Customer orders can be automatically forwarded to Drag Specialties for fulfillment, and tracking info can sync back to your Shopify store.
How does the Drag Specialties Shopify integration handle Harley fitment data?
We can map Drag Specialties' year/model fitment data into Shopify metafields, enabling customers to filter by their specific Harley model — Sportster, Softail, Touring, Dyna, or V-Rod — and see only compatible parts.
Can I sell both Drag Specialties and Parts Unlimited products on the same Shopify store?
Yes. Since both are LeMans Corporation brands, we can build an integration that pulls from both catalogs, keeping V-twin and metric powersports products organized in a single Shopify store.
