Default Where do you guys go to get work done on your bikes?

I was just curious where do you guys go to work done on your bikes? Do you go to the dealership or to a local shop?

Do it myself unless it is warranty work or tires.

Warranty work goes to a dealer that I halfway trust.

Tires are done at an Indy shop.

+1 on My Garage. I'm guessing like a lot of others that excludes tires which go to a local Indy. The forum has proved to be beyond valuable on more than one occasion.

My garage or my brother's garage. A local bike shop I trust mounts & balances my tires & also any machine work we need done.

Local independent garage. He is a harley tech that left the local dealership and went on his own. Much cheaper and better work then the dealer.
