    Default Anyone on here do bike repair? near Port Huron?

    I have a 2001 Hayabusa that I took on trade last year for my grand national....don't know much about it, but I would like to have it gone through, oil changed, coolant changed, plugs changed, etc. I just want to make sure it is safe to ride, and I don't know much about bikes. I might keep it, and I might sell it...either way I would think it needs to be done. The bike is all custom, but it only has 6,000 miles on it. I called Macomb Powersports, but they wanted a ton of money just to look it over and change the oil.
    Thanks,
    Jeff

    I work on them for a living. Generally very good bikes, provided they didn't get the ghetto treatment. The first real service is recommended at 7500 miles. Basically you replace plugs, synchronize the throttle bodies, and change the oil. Change the coolant, brake, and clutch fluids every two years, keep an eye on the chain adjustment, and you're in good shape. I'm not very close to you, but I can do it for ya reasonably if you want to make the trip and drop it off for a couple days.

    I would most likely have you bring it to my garage at 9 mile and I-75. I'm already backed up at the shop, so I can get it done faster when I'm not at work. Lol
