Howdy folks,
As the subject states, looking for a good Valk mechanic in the Tampa Bay area...I've done all the work on the bike myself in the past, but I decided that the time I would spend chasing down and correcting all the issues would be handled much more quickly by someone who actually knows what they are doing vs my stumbling around in the dark.
I'd prefer to not send the bike to a stealership and support a local independent shop, and the bike is rideable (though it doesn't ride well) so a little further out won't be a problem either...
thanks

There is a place on 49 st. & 46 ave (I think 46) in St. Pete just can't think of the name. Good people  Never had any work done but they said they know Valks and they will mount car tires. Hope this helps, check them out, like i said good people. Ask for Marc.

Bucks Down Racing is a bike shop in Oldsmar on Roberts Rd. 813-818-9775. Ask for Michael Shepherd, owner of the shop.

If it was the valk, would have not minded so much. But the Lady of the house went over board this year, after 3 days hanging lights, she is still figuring out where to put more of them.

(sorry Bill)  Well...seeing as how they threw you under the bus, do you work on the Valk Grumpy? I've normally done all my own wrenching, but I've chased this around a couple of time and it is getting real old. And no, I don't need christmas lights put up...

See Bill it wasn't just me. I have noticed EarthLink has held some of my email 12+ hours. Maybe the NSA needs more time to read it as I type slow.
