hi all,
i have a major question. ever since i had my off at tbolt 2 months back i've been contemplating how to repair my bike. the throttle has some noticeable play from side to side now. starter switch needs to be played with in order to start the bike and the tires are done. also one of the front fairing stays needs a tab rewelded together and i need some new fairing clips, and other miscellaneous items, no biggy. the right control housing may need to be replaced fully because the locator screw was grounded out. elec. tape is keeping it snug on the bars. i'm wary of taking it to ny motorcycles, even though they are popular around here. I have a feeling they are gona give me a big bill at the end for something that doesnt take long to fix really. It's mostly waiting for the parts that I may need.
I was also considering storing my bike at markbilts shop for the remainder of the season. That would be perfect because he could also fix up my bike and give me a fair price because i know he's a good person. The only problem is that i'll probably spend 500 bucks roundtrip getting a uhaul truck to take the bike all the way out there. i had a car hooked up with a hitch but it died, alas 2k down the drain. i'm on a tight budget and don't know the best way to approach this.
thanks in advance.
