Default Doc1 Knows stuff...

Doc1 has been a great addition to the forum. I am proud to say that he showed me how to do my 5k service on my bike last month. Yes, it was a step down for him to do a service on a bike...butwhen I left his place, I knew it was done right. I've seen him work miracles with engines. If you need performance work done, he is the best. People all over the country send him bikes for performance work.

He is the instructor of the instructors.

Welcome to HDForums Doc!

God Bless,

I don't know Doc personally and he hasn't done any work for me. Judging from some of the technical answers that he has given to others, it appears that he knows his way around Harleys. He sounds like a man of experience. I always look forward to reading his posts.

Doc! is a very nice asset to the Forum... He has given me straight scoop and I wish I was closer to him to have him set up my bike properly. I guess a friendly phone call will have to do for now. Thanks Doc!

Who is Doc1 and what is his shop name?

The instructor of the instructors should be pretty well known.

That would be totally up to them....

I'm training 6 techs there so give them a bike or two to get comfortable with the Tuner and they will be a good Tuning Shop to go to without a doubt!!!
