No matter what your bike needs, the best place to go is "Cycle Service
Center", 118 Saw Mill Run Blvd, 488-7144.  There, Jeff Bentley will
glance at your bike, lovingly stroke it for a couple seconds, and look
into its soul.  Your bike will be healed of that which ailed it.
Basically, this guy is the god of motorcycles; if you patronize him you
will be wealthy and your bike will be healthy.

Reading from his card, in addition to "General Repairs -- All Makes" he
does "State Inspections, Tires, Batteries, Etc."  And inexpensively, I
might add.

Anecdote time: a car backed into me at a stoplight, tweaking my fork
twenty degrees and busting the clutch lever; Jeff's bill was $13.20.  My
bike stalled halfway down the driveway and wouldn't restart; after an
afternoon of fruitless troubleshooting I called Jeff, and before I was
done with my second sentence he interrupted with the diagnosis and fix.
He once traced an electrical problem to the grease in the kill switch
which had become intermittently conductive.  Racers can be found at his
place getting their bikes a laying on of hands.

DIRECTIONS: go through the Liberty Tubes, turn left at the light at the
end, and pull into the tiny lot on your right.
