Default Motorcycle Repair Shop (DFW)

I have a 1978 KZ650 that I need some work done on, namely fixing/rebuilding/replacing carburetors and some minor wiring. Basic stuff really.

Since it's basic stuff on a pretty ordinary bike, I would assume that about anyone in town could do it, but I want someone who will do it for a fair price. I guess it wouldn't even have to be a "bike shop" even, if a sponsor here also dabbles in bikes, too.


Here's some pics of it:

It takes some skills and know-how to sync 4 carbs. Lots of ways to screw it up, even though it looks really easy.

The best independent bike shop I've been in is Piper's Performance in North Richland Hills.

www.piperperformance.com

He preps all the local hot shoe's road racing bikes. He's reasonable, too.
