Title: Independent shop in Seattle?
Post by: Euro Spec on January 05, 2017, 12:00:16 AM

Anyone have a good independent shop recommendation for Seattle?  My surviving K1 is due for services and I don't have garage access to do it myself  :musicboohoo:


Happy 2017!

In case anyone in the Seattle area is interested, went to Vallantine Motor Works.  They have a nice little shop there, friendly factory trained guys with good reviews online.

You might try Drake -- he's out in Western Washington somewhere and doesn't do repairs but he would know if there's someone off the beaten track.

Vallantine has been great, they serviced the K1 and were nice enough to balance the carbs on my Triumph.  They also handled the quote for my K100 that the tow truck company dropped.  Needless to say, I brought them a lot of business this month.
