I'm not picky.
Name
Dan
I picked up at 2001 Goldwing 1800 a while back and have had the hardest time finding a reliable technician to work on it. Does anyone have a reco in the East Bay (preferably) for a tech who could work on this 24 year old beauty? I recently had the valves checked and fluids changed and now it's leaking oil in several places (I've fixed a couple, but haven't managed to fix others)- I just need it gone over and to have any issues addressed. I don't trust the guy I had do that work enough to let him touch the bike again.

Any pointers are welcome. Thanks ya'll.
 
I'll mention East Bay Motorsports in Hayward. The sales side is dicey but the service side has been good to me lately. Paul is the Service Manager who is super nice and responsive. Tell him I sent you and remind him I'm the guy with the white Busa that they spent hours extending the rear end in Feb this year.
It looked like a no-go at the outset but they made it happen for me after a lot of unforeseen trouble.
I realize a Goldwing is a different animal but they sell and service Hondas too as you're probably aware.
