    honest harley ad

    I own Harleys and a Buell. The vid was amusing, but the dig on reliability was untrue. Late model HD's hold up pretty darn good and are one heck of a lot easier to work on than other bikes when they do need service. The technology is dated, but if you want the latest technology...buy...

    Dealer CRASHED MY BIKE!

    The shops insurance should be in front of yours. As far as being happy with the repair.. a dealer will be fixing it anyway, not the insurance company. You don't want to claim it on yours..hell YOU didn't do it! Every insurance job we do, we quote new factory parts, period. If the tank is...

    Dealer CRASHED MY BIKE!

    We test ride every bike we work on. You want a new frame, new bars, and new headers. I wouldn't want a frame "fixed". Be sure the title stays clean too. I have seen insurance companies fix bikes with frame damage and end up with a salvage or rebuilt title. Dealer did.. they have to make it right.

    Buellers in Oklahoma??

    We ought to plan a ride out around Talimena sometime. I like the twisty roads in the area. I usually take my toybox and set up for the weekend at Talimena State park.

    Transmission howls.....HELP!!

    I believe you have a bad clutch bearing if it is like a sportster. It is kinda like a throwout bearing and goes under the adjuster. I have not had to do one on a Buell. If you get the noise just setting still with the clutch in. Real easy to change and if it's bad it will throw your adjustment...

    Replacement tires question

    I do install them for $40! Carry your wheels in, heck I'll do it all day long! If you are a regular customer on other stuff, I regularly discount the advertised price. I am one of the "monkeys" and there is no sitting around between jobs as we stay hooked up non-stop during the season. I'm...

    Shop put DYNA BEADS in my tire w/o permission.

    Oh, and if they are in there.. let the shop know when you come in for a tire. I popped one of the rim a month ago and those dang beads went everywhere! I'm still sweeping them up.

    Replacement tires question

    Well "Wiznut".. for 4 years of college you are still pretty ignorant. A shop labor rate is not what we get paid, Alfatango gets it. It covers the overhead which is considerable if you are a real shop that has professional grade equipment, liability insurance and all the rest. The other...

    Replacement tires question

    Carry in I charge $40. $75 sounds high, but look at it this way. I have a 2 man shop and am open 38 hours per week. Shop rate is $75/hr. When busy (like now through November!) It makes no sense to tie up my time at less than shop rate. And believe me, anyone who thinks you can get a bike...

    Replacement tires question

    I just raised prices to mount tires not ordered through me from $40 to $75. All the internet offers is a cheap price. I hope people will begin to get it as more shops like mine raise prices for install or, as a lot of the bigger shops in my area do, refuse to mount tires that aren't purchased...

    Battery- Factory activated only???

    I would rather use the factory activated on an XB because of the near horizontal position of the battery in the bike. Once the acid is in the self-activated one and the cap is tapped back in place it should stay sealed, but I don't know if it would leak given the mount position, vibration, and...

    Shop put DYNA BEADS in my tire w/o permission.

    It's not the width of the tire that gets you it's the width of the hub and rotor/pulley etc. I have a Snap On balancer at my shop and the spindle is too short for some wheels. We also have trouble with wheels off single-side swingarms as they are too narrow for the spindle to clamp on. The...
