Jeff McKay lives in Naples, goes by Flsix on this board. Used to be another one that went by the name NaplesRichard, haven't heard from him in a few years so don't know if he still lives in that area.

just talked to Flsix this morning, I just met him this morning by acident. He came over to me because he recognized the sound of the Valk as I was parking. I'm in FMB. My recommendation of Jim's is because of work he has done for me. Long time Honda wrench that opened his own shop.

Scott, welcome to the VRCC.
As others have said Jim's is in N. Ft. Myers in the industrial park off of Bayshore Rd. I've talked to him and he seems knowledgeable and has a nice clean place. Just too far away for my tastes.
Fred's is another bike shop in the Golden Gate Estates area off of 13th. St. SE. Fred's is only about 2 miles from my house. He has done work for me when my work schedule won't fit with my play schedule. Reasonable rates too.
PM sent.

Basquerider I'll also welcome you to the VRCC. It was good to meet you and talk a little this morning. It's good to see a few more Valk riders in the area.  May be we could get together with bsg ( Scott ) and meet the guys and gals up north of here for lunch sometime. Jeff 239-six four one-577 two |

Just reading your posts. Naples/Ft. Myers is about 3 hrs. from PSL. I'd love to ride over and meet other Valk. riders. It's been awhile since I put any real miles on the bike. In fact 1200 mile from NJ was my last long ride. My I/S is getting lonely and ready for a decent ride.

Valkrider27, where is this PSL you are calling home?
Never mind, I just looked at your other post and realized it's Port St. Lucie
