    Anybody know a good shop for motorcycle repairs?

    I was at PRP this weekend and the bike didn't have any balls. Now it sounds like the piston is hitting a valve in the front cylinder. It's an 85 Honda Shadow 500, I don't really want to put alot of money into it, but it does me no good to have or sell a bike that won't hardly run. I need a place that would tear down the heads and check the valves. Anybody know anyone that does this and for a reasonable price.

    I know Road Rash used to be in and around Irwin area, don't know if hes still in business.

    That old of a bike why not just look for another one, or a wrecked one with a good motor?

    I believe RoadRash is still in business..... You can look him up, or find him over on www.scpmc.net.... they're a bunch of cool guys over there and very helpful... they could point you to several shops if RoadRash is backed up or something

    I kinda planned on upgrading to a bigger better bike, but I don't want to get rid of this one. I just want to see how much it would be to fix this motor or to buy a used one. If I fix this one at least I know what I am getting. If I buy used it could end up doing the same thing a week down the road.

    Road Rash is deff. in business. Hours our cut do to end of season. Them guys always go the extra miles. I did however call RR yesterday his girl answered and said the tech is out for the season. Tire changes only till next season. However, if you want I have a number for a lead tech from tom clark hondamotorsports that does work on the side. I'm taking my 600rr there. pm me and I'll give you the number if you want.
