Mobile bike/car mechanic + motorcycle fender restoration + painting!

[SpeedyCorky]

:thumbup

Need a tune up on your motorcycle or car, and don't wanna pay a ton of $$$ for sometimes quick and sloppy work that you'd receive at a local repair shop? Want to learn how to do it yourself, or just don't wanna get your hands dirty!? Well look no further !!!!

I have my own tools, I can work on motorcycles and cars. I know how to do all maintenance/tune up stuff such as....

spark plugs + wires
coolant change
chain replacement and adjust
sprocket and/or chain replacement
carburetor cleaning and sync
air filter change
oil/filter change
brake fluid change
change brake pads/rotors
cable lubing
adjustment throttle, clutch, etc.
swapping in a new radiator
adding switches to turn off/on components
installing stereo heads, speakers, amps and subs (cars only)
installing short shifter kits (cars only)
tyre rotation (cars only...DUH)

theres a lot more stuff that I can do but no need to list it all - just feel free to ask!
I am also very good with fender restoration through bondo work, and fiberglass methods. Check out my work at:
http://www.bayarearidersforum.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=61594&highlight=YSR50

My limitations are that I don't know wiring beyond the basics; can usually get a broken light or something to work, but rewiring an entire bike/car I can not do....Because of a lack of tools, I am usually not able to go as deep into a bike as to adjust valves, or change motorcycle fork oil. While I am not as knowledgeable as the all-mighty Shawn (elskipador), I am more than competent in the tune up stuff that I focus on providing.

$25/hour while I'm on your bike + fuel/driving (depending on location)
if you come to my place, just just straight up $25/hour while I'm on your bike

PM me if interested, or email:

[Rambeezi]

I have a 1993 Nissan NX2000. The fuel pump went out on me and needs to be replaced. I have the new fuel pump and I also have the factory service manual for the NX2000. Can you replace the fuel pump?? I'm located in San Jose.

[Red6Rdr]

i gave ya some mojo cuz u so cool, ill call ya bout the fixing of my POC bike, ride safe mang.

[gradox]

I would like to fully recommend Charlie. He came to my house and did an extensive tune-up of my motorcycle (a '91 Eliminator 250) that had been unused during winter. The bike would not start, but Charlie cleaned out the carbs and the bike started up immediately. If your looking for a great alternative to expensive shops, or if you want to see how a tune up is done, Charlie is your man! He was on time and his fees are reasonable.

[yomama50]

I just got my ysr together and it rides good, but I don't know if it is tuned right. I'm in Daly City, so if you can help, that would be great. Thanks

[windawg]

Brought my bike over to Charlie for a tune up the other day. Wanted to give him much props on a job well done. Highly recommended. Thanks again! :thumbup

[ducmental]

Speedy does good work. he helped me out when i was in a rush, and had the tools and knowledge to get it done.

I would recommend him. :thumbup

[vinager2001]

how long would it take you to do a 92 civic hatchback? basic paint job

[SpeedyCorky]

i dont paint cars....... in fact i'm now even not doing painting anymore. i'll still do fender restoration (bondo and fiberglass), but no painting. this is simply due to that i dont have the right supplies or a good area to make painting possible.

Speedy did a great job on my '85 rebel. He works fast, accurately diagnosed problems with the bike and passed on some really helpful tips. He checked out the brake pads (even the drum brake), adjusted the chain, bled the brakes, changed the brake fluid and adjusted the choke. Everything was fixable in an hour and a half or so.

He also looked at my 650 nighthawk and helped identify a serious problem with it. I'll probably be taking it in to a shop for repair and replacecment but it's good to know what's wrong.



PS. He asked me to say he was "semi-cool". That's true enough. Honestly though, hire Speedy. He's upfront about what he knows and what he doesn't. The honesty is refreshing.

[supratkfy]

good guy, helped with my gsxr600 changed oil, filter, coolant flush, brake bleed and flush, and adjusted my chain within good time. also gave me few tips to learn from to. thanks for the help man. will be coming again if i need something.

speedycorky is :cool

[Jbeaber]

Speedy did a great job on my bike yesterday. I have a 1983 Nighthawk that was in need of some love. Brake fluid change, clutch fluid change, brake adjustment, carb check, a ton of annoying little electic work and just a good check to make sure the bike was safe. He taught mea bunch along the way and was incredibly reasonable with his pricing. Highly recommend!!!!

[grandmastershake]

wanna buy a scanner for working on cars?

[SpeedyCorky]

naw, no spair $; dont do this mechanic stuff that much anymore, and also..... cars suck.


:teeth
but thanx anywayz

[supratkfy]

Bump for SpeedyCorky

Hey! I think I met you at a gas station in Concord a WHILE ago on Kirker Pass n Clayton Blvd.

[Dopesick]

Anyone feel like taking a look at a seriously rashed lower right fairing on a hayabusa that needs Sanding, Bondo, Primer and paint?

[SpeedyCorky]

email responded to.

moviesurfer: doubt it was me i think cuz i'm NEVER at a gas station cuz my bike runs premix only. perhaps it was during the 250cc group ride?

dopestick: yeah i can fix that up for you. throw me and email SpeedyCorky@gmail.com if you can, send pics of the damage and i'll let u know if its worth fixing or if you are better off buying a new peice. and i dont do paint BTW. i can fix it to paintable condition but u or someone else has to paint it cuz i dont have the supplies and a place to actually spray it.



yeah i'm doing the mechanic thing more now a days; so bring on the jobs ! :teeth

[fmtgsxr]

Charlie sent ya a email.. will wait to hear from you

[nismodan]

SpeedCorky came out to work on my bike for me a few days ago, and I gotta say, he did a great job.
Everything was done quickly and well, and he helped me figure out a lot of the random crap that the previous owner had done to the bike.

+1 for SpeedyCorky, even if he did spill gas all over the place. :D

:twofinger

[SpeedyCorky]

weather is getting better.....


riding season is open....



as is SpeedyCorky's tune up service!

:banana


:cool

[anarchyoffline]

bumpity-bump for a great mechanic and a great guy!

Charlie set my r6 up with new chain and sprockets, changed brake fluid and adjusted throttle cable. the throttle feel is noticeably better now, and the new hayabusa-style chain looks badass. thanks again man!

and the shops can't beat his pricing either!

[imagyn]

need my carbs rejetted.....how much???

[SpeedyCorky]

depends..

do you have the correct jets, and just need to install them? or do you need the bike tuned?

PM me

[dreamers]

Do you do painting as well? I want to get my gsxr-600 an all custom paint...LMk thank you.

[SpeedyCorky]

He did a good job on both of my bikes and
he was patient answering all of my questions. :thumbup

[pilotimb]

Hey SpeedyCorky,

Do you flush and replace fork oil? I have a '98 YZF600R that needs new fork oil.

[SpeedyCorky]

naw, dont do forks. talk to elskipador

[PushHands]

Are you in the East Bay? I have some sharkskinz bodywork that is need of minor repair. Every come out to SF area? I do go down to San Jose occasionally.

I also read that you're no longer painting. Did you ever establish a partnership with milo2?

[SpeedyCorky]

milo2 was unresponsive to my PMs, so no partnership unfortionatly :(


i'm in the east bay, concord area. i still do fender repair, but no paint.

i'm in SF all the time, as the girlie lives there

PM me or Email me w/ some pics as to what u need done and i'll give u an estimate :thumbup

[ocj]

Thanks for working on the bike today with such short notice. I'm glad to see you that you are now in the East Bay.

[SpeedyCorky]

yup yup


yeah i'm in Hayward now; real close to BART. and i got my own garage now :teeth

[KennyMonster]

Charlie did kick-ass tuneup work on my bike. Totally worth the ride out to pleasant hill. Thanks again.

[ocean]

Interested in working on my 84 nighthawk s? Probably needs some carb cleaning, rejetting,? There is a long post on BARF about this bike i bought recently. Can you come to my place where the bike is, in El Cerrito?

[SpeedyCorky]

cant really do re-jetting unless you KNOW you have the right jets. i can not trouble shoot jetting very effectivly. shoot me a PM with a more in depth explaination of what it is you need done

[motoshey]

PMd you!

[motoshey]

Charlie, aka SpeedyCorky, did the 3K mile service on my ninjette today. He is an awesome dude with great wrenching skillz. He responded to my PM right away and I had no trouble setting up an appointment with him. He took the time to explain some of the basics to me and did an all around fantastic job.
Thanks, Charlie. The bike purrs like a kitten now... (Or like a fast lawn mower -- it is a ninjette after all :teeth).

A jack of all trades!

^^^ :laughing

i wish !!!


i'm good at what i do, but i know my limitations.

no paint, and i'm not a 'get it running' guy, i'm a 'tune it to run from ok to awesome' guy

[ocj]

Thanks for looking at and resolving my brake issues today (on a Sunday no less)! I really appreciate it.:thumbup

[ocean]

PM sent to SpeedyCorky a few weeks ago @ estimate for brake replacement & general tune-up for my 84 Honda CB700SC Nighthawk S. Have not heard back yet.?

Bike is running good now :thumbup, just needs its well-worn brakes & perhaps front fork seal replaced, and could likely use a general tune up even though nothing is significantly wrong with it now.
Even if not comfortable working on all aspects, if some aspects are doable that could be fine too.

[SpeedyCorky]

^
thought i mailed u back stating i dont work on the older, cruiser-sport type motorcycles?
anyways, its because the type with carb on the rear of the motor and airbox behind that - makes getting the carb in and out a headache.

[ocean]

Thanks for the reply Speedy.
Not interested in having the carbs taken apart or dealt with at this time. Just simple brake replacements and perhaps front fork seal replacement for now.
Sometime in next month or so.? Wondering what you would charge for that?

cant do fork seals. dont have the tools :(


i can do brake stuff tho. $20/hr so depends on what brake work u need done

[tad2much]

Hey Speedy!

I have a 2002 honda shadow that needs the 8000 mile tune up. I don't know if you work on cruisers at all, but i figure tune up stuff should be pretty much the same right? I'll pm you also. Thanks

[1sicR6]

PMd you.

Hi Speedy...

Just a straightforward brake replacement. Brake pads are getting really low, taking long time to stop. Another avid nighthawk owner who test rode my bike a few months ago said they were really worn down and need replacing fairly soon.
You dont do fork seals from what I remember, so just brakes would be great for now.?
Estimate? Im in El Cerrito.

[SpeedyCorky]

PMd you.

thurs 6pm, c u then
