I'm looking for someone in the PNW, hopefully close to TriCites WA, to work on my valk. It's an 03 standard ~20k mile. I don't have the time or inclination to ride anymore so I'd just like to get it running good and find a new home for it. After sitting hydrolocked for a few yrs, i pulled the engine this past spring and repaired the hydrolock damage (idler gear), thoroughly cleaned the carbs and replaced all the rubber bits with the full redline kit. Replaced all the jets as well. Somewhat to my surprise it started right up and ran great, actually smoother than ever.
Now after sitting again for 5 months, it will only start and run with the choke full on. It's a nice bike .. Woody's fairing, MarkT pipes, qd bags, belly tank, ultimate seats, new avons, etc and super clean & shinny. I need to move on so if anybody has a recommendation for a good shop or mechanic i'd appreciate it. Have trailer, will travel. Thanks
