    Motor Rebuilder Recommendations in Chicago Area?

    Can anyone recommend an engine rebuilder? I have a GS motor that needs, at minimum, a top-end refresh and a new cam chain.

    Thanks!

    Why don't you do it? You're the best one to get it done right and at a cost that is good on your budget as you can get a little bit here and there.

      Look up Ichiban Moto. He's the best bad ass rebuilder in the Chicago area and when he gets done with your rebuild, he will send it back to you with 5 bad ass stickers (7) .

          What sort of GS motor, and what sort of build are you looking for?
