Nor Cal is a BIG area. Where are you?
I have Chubby 518's for sale (sorta like beach bars)

I'm in the South bay Area (San Jose)
The best shop here (tuner/dyno, maint, whatever) is HorsePower Express in Campbell.

Being from the SoCal area I can't suggest any shops. I can highly recommend the same bars I'm running. They are the Burly Brand Beachbars. They are 1.25" thick and 38.5" wide. Very comfortable and stylish.

Hollister huh, I was just out your way. Well there's Strokers in Merced (great place to have a motor done, in house dyno cert. dyno jet dealer tuner), R&R cycles in San Andreas (another great place to get motor work done and dyno tune) and Backroads cycles in Tracy (good for bike builds and has in house painter). I would recommended them to anyone.
