Hi Gang,
where do Northern Virginians get their bikes inspected? Do you use HD all the time? Do regular inspection stations also do bikes? Other shop suggestions? Any "while you wait" vs dropping off?
You might look for a local garage around there to get the inspection done. Been using a no frills garage down here for the last four years and they've always gotten me in and out of there in less than 20 minutes, without an appointment and no hassles over the bike.
I go to the local Chevy dealer. It is convenient and the inspector is a nice guy. I am pretty sure that any inspection station is required to do the inspection.
Thats what I am hoping for. Patriot is so booked up that I have to drop the bike off and leave it overnight. For an inspection, I would rather ride the bike in to a place and get out if possible.
