Description of service

My bike had been sitting for quite a while in my garage due to the weather and stuff at work, so when i went to get it out for the first time in months I wasn't surprised that it wouldn't start. I had it towed to a local motorcycle repair shop that fixed the problem, which turned out to be something in the fuel line, in about a day's time. The total cost of the repair was about $150 after taxes, parts and labor.


Review of Service

The service was great, but since I don't know how to fix motorcycles, I didn't know what to expect. It seems like whenever I do need work done on my bike and I go to this particular mechanic the repair costs are about the same, $150. They are always really nice, and very helpful in teaching me how to keep up on the maintenance on my bike. It turned out that if I would have used a gas additive I could have prevented this from happening.


Tips

I go to the same motorcycle repair shop every time because I trust them. You can call around, and go to different shops until you find one that is trustworthy, but will still give you good work at a decent price.
