Default Alabama riders......HELP!!!

I think I am having some bad problems with my clutch and need to find a trusted and reputable repair shop. I live in Pelham and need someone close due to I cannot drive the bike. Right now, this has hit me at a bad time financially. I need someone that is reputable, trustworthy and will do the work at a reasonable cost. I have no clue what I am doing in that area and would prefer someone else handle it. Please DO NOT suggest Heart of Dixie! I would scrap my bike before I ever shadow their door again.

If you are willing to load up a trailer and head North to Decatur look up Ironhorse Cycles. Fantastic work, excellent reputation. Price might not be bargain basement though.

Foster's Harley Davidson in the Florence area. Excellent work, reasonable pricing. Yes, you'll have to trailer there. I am not familiar with shops further south. Rocket Harley near Huntsville has changed management, but I have not used them for any service work. They had a bad rep under the old management. They are right off I565 about 10 miles from I65. Still a trailer situation.

Another dealer in Trussville, Rider's HD. On a trip stopped to have them look at the intercom connector on the tank. They replaced it under warranty and did my brake switch recall. Bought a jacket for 20% off too, so I guess they got money out of me.
