Default Lookin for some help

Just got some accutronix forward controls for my RK. Asked the dealer how much to put them on and they said 3 hrs @ $85. Thats a little too much for me seems how I spoke to the tech rep from Accutronix and he said it shouldnt take longer then an hour to hour.5. Was wondering if there was anyone in Northern VA, Maryland, or DC area that has a well equip garage and some mechanical skills that wouldnt mind lending a hand? Please let me know.

Thanks a lot, have a good one!

Josh

Hey Josh,
I wish I lived out there to help... I'm very interested in how they install and how they feel. Please post a review when you get done. I would be willing to bet the install is pretty nuts and bolts. Good luck!

Find an indy shop.

HD dealers go by the book on everything, whether it actually takes that long or not.
