Hey guys and gals,
I have two former students that are out in the Las Vegas area and could use a hand. They are traveling the country and already had an engine fail and paid for that repair and now they have some suspension woes. Right now, over the phone, best guess is a spring broke. I am hoping that someone can help point them towards someone honest that can help, or if someone here does side work if they would be willing to help them out. Anything that we can do for them would be awesome.

I'm not near them, but if I were, I would surly give them a hand. What year and model bike is the one having problems?

I have some company associates in that area. what brand bikes are they having problems with? I could probably get some info on the most reliable/honest repair shops in area.

I wasn't clear. Girls=car. these aren't the type that ride. They have hopefully taken care of the problem, but I am not sure at this point. sounds like they have been taken for a ride a couple places along the way. oh well.

My suggestion is to go to an actual dealership, and one that more than one old codger in a diner recommends. If they ask around and not play ingenue, they'll be fine, as one name will keep coming up over and over. Has to be a diner or similar, not some chain or gambling place, somewhere the locals go.

If they go to a dealership, the work should be warranteed. If the same problem happens again in another part of the country, a dealership of the same make should honor the warranty.
