    New to Houston, does anybody know a shop that can fix my '78 GS750 brake?

    Hi All,

    I've just moved from Chicago to Houston (yay, more riding days!) and, between settling in, unpacking, working on the house and running around two kids, ages 8 and 5, I definitely would like to delegate fixing the rear brake job, which seized really good.
    Does anyone know a shop in the area that would take an oldie?

    Thanks much!

    You would probably be better off if you did it yourself, but wait until the rush of unpacking and settling in is over.

      Steve, why when one asks direction or recommendation to a shop to fix an issue they have neither the time or desire to fix themselves do you tell them to do it yourself, your better off that way? Why is there no trust or should I say an abundance of mistrust of EVERY mechanic in existence? Is it simply your trying to save the guy some bucks?

      I read a thread where you built a garage/shop. Can I ask why you did not pour the concrete and frame it yourself? I feel like your a smart guy and could have done it correct?

      Is my point understood? Not everyone is capable of every undertaking due to timing or knowledge or even circumstance. The guy just moved and has kids to watch, let him try and find a shop without a guilt trip that he should do it himself
