    Mechanic in georgia

    Hello I am new to the gs crowd and was wondering if there were any mechanics in the middle georgia area that works on these old bikes. Or someone that could help guide me in checking my valves and making any adjustments needed. Thank you.

    Do you have a service manual?

    Have you gotten your "Mega Welcome" from BassCliff?

    He has a LOT of information on his website, including downloadable manuals for most of our bikes.

    Depending on what bike you have (would be nice to show it in your signature, hint, hint), you might need shims to adjust the valves or you might simply turn some threaded adjusters. All very basic, easy to do by yourself.

      haha, the guys on this board will tell you six times a day, do it yourself.

      and they're mostly right; it is cheaper, way more fun, and as easy as they claim.

      but i think all of these guys must be retired or at least have off every weekend with no other hobbies/responsibilities, because they forget that sometimes, your time is money.

      i asked a friend in Atlanta, he said he brings his xs650 to all in customs when he can't wrench himself; phone number is 770-912-1343. hope that is close enough for ya.
