    Does anyone know a good independent mechanic who will work on a modern BMW sport motorcycle?

    HOU area.

    I would think that Wolfsmith would take you in, nice guys over off Shepherd and 27th, across from the Upholstery Shop...

    Since Andy closed Metric Cycles all the Ducato Club goes to an endependent way out north.
    Or V1, or Mancuso out 59S....but that's not an independent.
    V1 has BMWs and buys and sells them though, it's a good crew.

    Thanks Alan

    A really nice guy gave me a jump at the Exxon station, at I-10 and T.C. Jester. Just a stone's throw from where I park the bike.

    The battery is no good. I may need a mechanic for less than firm brakes.

    My local Filling Station cashier was hawking a bike battery but it was too large for my Ducari.

    Now I need to find someone to flush the brake fluid. It's an ABS system so it may need someone with experience to work on the modern bikes.

    The service department at a few dealerships have not called me back when I leave a message. Over-booked.

    I called and asked. My guess Vic is swamped with work. I ended up scheduling an appointment with the BMW dealer in the Woodlands. Just about called Haris and asked if he performs work on modern motorcycles. Thanks for commenting.
