Here are the rules:
Mechanic/Technician must:
1) Have and make use of: a brain
2) actually know how to work on a Big Dog Motorcycle
3) not assume that everyone in this forum is an idiot and doesn't know anything about Big Dogs
4) know how to use blue tape and/or be capable of keeping a wrench on a bolt (as opposed to gliding across my chrome with every attempt at a turn)
5) own an actual business and a space zoned other then "residential"
6) not be an asshole

These guys are great and know their stuff. Take it from someone who's been riding and working on bikes for over 50 years...

Yep. They put my outer open primary on because it needed machining and there were 2 other dogs there for wok as well. They are as honest as the day is long. Great bunch of guys.

There is a guy in downtown Ocala near 301 I think. My father knows him and has done business with him. Not sure if he is a great mechanic but he does have a dog and I have seen a couple in his shop when I visited. I think the owners name is Tony. http://www.hogsangelsinc.com/

Did not realize Deland was that far from Ocala. Anyway, maybe he can help. maybe not.

Thanks... Depends on where in Ocala... I use a Ducati dealership out there for my Diavel. They are about an hour & fifteen minutes from me. I'll travel if the place is worth it.

2nd person in the last month or so with bad experience from Carl's Speed Shop. I thought they were reputable from what I have seen online. I've never had any personal experience though

To mention a Google search.

I had a wire plus installed on a 2008 K9 I purchased from a bank repo and had my 2010 Bulldog Bagger motor Diamond cut and Powed Coated at Carl's only problem I had was the key switch went out on the K9 a month later but they fixed it for the cost of the key switch. Can't say I have had any issues with Carl's sorry you had a bad experience Matt.
