I live in unincorporated Lockport Township between Joliet and Plainfield I need a couple tires and some brake pads put on my DYNA (already have tires and pads), but my shoulders are all phucked up and I do not want to do the work because of the pain. I know how to do it, and would be more than happy to sit with you in the garage and walk you through the work. Hell - I'll even privide a few beers for AFTER the work is done.

 

does he have to drink the beers for you too?




nice offer!! good looking out. hope you feel better soon!

 

He does not HAVE to drink the beers for me. I could drink them all by myself, but if he wants a few, they'll be here and they will be nicely chilled. I have all the necessary tools and a decent jack and the knowledge to get the job done. All I need is a couple strong arms. Like I said, my shoulders are FUBAR.

 

Apprentice? I have a nice big garage..

Boi this is too weird.

 

Ever thought of being a dentist ? (you had me at 'work for free.")

 

Its just the experience I am after. There are no motorcyle tech schools in Chicago, so I figured I would offer my time to a shop to help with whatever they need. In exchange I would be gaining invaluable info. I think it's a win win for both parties involved.

 

It's almost impossible to ask a shop to pay you when you have no motorcycle experience.

 

I also don't see how this is "wierd". How else am I suppose to learn? There is only so much I can do to MY sportster. I figured diving right in with a hands on approach would help with the learning curve. I figured I would be a liability at first, but observing is a good way of learning!

 

you let me play with the "knock out gas" and I'll come work for free (for a little while)

 

Partner it's almost impossible to get a shop to pay you with experience anymore are you kidding .
