    Anyone use this shop?

    Saw a sandwich board out on 100 just south of Morrisville. I think it's called Performance Motorcycle or something like that. The phone number is 888-0003, which is listed in the yellowpages as Charlies Garage.

    I need a chain/sprocket set installed and the location is relatively close to where I work. Just wondering if anyone has any experience with this shop.

    I asked my co-worker who lives in the area... he said it's a brand new shop.

    He recommends that you go to AMSR in North Hyde Park.

    Yeah, thats a pretty quick and easy thing to do too; I'm sure someone here can help you out. If you're in my area I don't mind helping as I do that stuff all the time anyways.

    'daze, I'm probably about an hour from you (Moretown)...so yeah I could be in the area.

    Bike rides fine, but I think it's the original chain with 21k miles on it. I have an RK chain/sprocket set in my possession.

    Re: Anyone use this shop?

    yeah, just let me know. I'll show you how to change the sprocket and chain, set the tension and all that. It'll at least save you a few bucks. If you feel the urge to pay me (that isn't hard so nothing I give a crap about) I'll let you pay for a pizza so we have something to eat while we work lol

    I'd rather be taught for the price of a 6-pack, then pay a shop $75/hr to do the work for me

    Wonder how many 6-packs it takes to buy a garage, a full set of tools, a no-mar tire mounting machine, and a 20 ton press for wheel bearings.

    Guess you're just one of the lucky ones who already has all of that stuff.

    20 ton? Afraid not, I will be ordering one in the next few weeks as I got sick of doing the same thing, but don't have one yet.

    I'm actually working on adding a list of all the tools I have to my website, should be up soon, that way people around here can see what is available in case they need something.
