How can I impress the local HD riders to bring their bikes to me for repair?
I was thinking about hanging out at biker bars and giving out my business cards and paying for their drinks?
My current labor rate is $65 per hour and I specialize in troubleshooting and repairing electrical systems, but I do admit I am not a good engine tear down man, I can tear down an engine to replace a clutch and spit engine cases to replace the shaft seals, but head, piston and valve work isn't my forte.
I plan on making a 20% mark-up on the parts I sell and I found a supplier where I can get aftermarket HD parts dirt cheap
I offer a 30 day guarantee on the labor, but no warranty on parts, if the part I install fails in 30 days or less, I will replace that part with free labor, but the customer has to pay for that same part again.
Is that fair?
and if I don't know how to fix a HD I can ask my friends here on Yahoo Answers, "Choppy", and "V-Twin" and they can help me out?
The last 3 days I haven't been feeling that good, I haven't eaten anything, I hope I don't have the swine flu
Red? yea, I don't know a lot about HD's cause I don't have much hands on experience with them, but how can i learn without having some HD's to work on?
I won't tell local people that, I will lie to them and tell them I'm a HD expert
name calling and insults will never get you the "Best Answer Award"
