Been MIA for a while. GS500e went ka-putt after a long ride down to Fresno. Scratch had initially come around to help diagnose the problem but we both got busy with other things to take a decent look at the problem. Busy with work and the holidays, so I can't work on her but would like to get her back in running condtion. Don't know if she'll need an engine rebuild or new fuel petcock... but can someone recommend a trustworthy GS500e specialist in the Bay Area that I can bring her to that won't rip me off? Thanks for the help and stay warm!
Heya,
Try Doug Knowlton @ Marin Cycleworks. I used to work there in the parts dept...Doug is one of two mechanics in the Bay Area that I will take my bikes to. He's a great guy and a fantastic mechanic.
