hey guys im new to the forum..

i've been having a few problems with my 2000 FXDL.

there is a vibration, from what i suspect to be either the primary or the gearbox, and a (sort of) whining noise.

i've had the bike at geelong harley, brunswick harley heaven, and  a mobile mechanic i was pointed towards.

 

noone can pin point the problem let alone fix it, but they all have no qualms about charging me a wad of cash everytime.

so far i heard numerous stories. ranging from brake discs, to of all things a leaky inlet manifold gasket (yes you read right)

 

basically im asking if anyone knows a reliable, trustworthy and well priced mechanic that knows their stuff.

obviously i dont mind paying someone to fix it... but thats the catch. they need to fix it!

Can't help m8, but as you have taken it to two dealers i think you should go back and tell at least one of them the problem was not fixed.

don't the garantee there work?

 

they have been stuffing around with the front brakes and they told me i had a broken spoke on my rear wheel... they changed the front discs and pads twice.

its rediculous.

thanks walka i'll give wild rhino a go

I work on my own bike, have been for 20+ years, if i didn`t Gunna from wild rhino would be my choice.

Rick has worked on my bike, and super cool guy, and dont charge an arm or leg
for the work he does.
And he does great work, if he cant find out whats wrong no one can.
