    Need shop to work on vintage motorcross bike

    Anyone know of a good shop to work on a old vintage motorcrosser (1976) need some fork seals installed and this was the Yzx model that had the big canister air fork tubes.

    I would call epic first but if they can't help. I met some guys from vintage motoworx at the performance cycle bike night. They had some nice bikes there but I've never worked with them, so I don't know the pricing or how quick their turn around is. From what I saw they seem to do good work.
    A good long ride can clear your mind, restore your faith and use up a lot of fuel.
    A good rider has balance, judgment, and good timing. So does a good lover.

    Try Jim Bennett at Racers Edge in Lakewood.He only works on dirtbikes, has a full machine shop and dyno. He's just finishing a restoration of '76 RM125 and it's impeccable. 3039862107
