I have an 07 k9 I just bought last week and the rocker box is leaking. I have the gasket kit already, I just don't think I can handle doing it myself so I'm looking for a shop around Frankenmuth/flint/Saginaw that could do it for me

Before you go and change your gaskets, make sure all of your rocker lid bolts are tight. It might be as simple as that. About every 2 or 3 years, the left rear bolt on my rear lid likes to work loose and it starts leaking. I tighten it up and the leak stops. You may need an allen wrench with a short end on it to get it in the rear bolts. You do with the TP rockers. I'm not sure about the S&S boxes.

I'll for sure check that out! My number one concern was getting a new rear tire on it ASAP,as the PO burnt it up before selling it

Welcome fro North Central Mass.
As mleach72 mentions just torquing the rocker cover a little may help. If not it is not that hard to replace the gaskets and do it your self.
You can get the parts you need from Eric @ HDM #620-680-0395 and the people on here can help walk you through, as you may want to think about wrenching your own bike as some bike shops do not perform very well on our bikes.
