ATV repair in Pinellas, FL

vinson · August 17, 2008, 02:20:09 PM

I am looking for an honest repair shop in Pinellas County, Fl to repair my son's Bombarier Rally. The bike is running very rich. I purchased a new carb from Carb Parts Warehouse and I have tried jetting it down and it still runs rich. I tried adjusting the needle clip and it didn't seem to help. I've been to two different repair shops and paid to much money and it still doesn't work. I'm sure it is something simple but at this point I just want to drop it off and pick it up when it runs right. Thanks in advanced.

Look up ToyDoctor, (Ken), he's who I would use if needed.
Worth the drive to his place, PM him.

I'll second that. Ken is a heck of a mechanic and will treat you right. He's where 301 and 98 meet in Dade City. Wwell worth the drive.

I use Mototech on Drew Street. It is a couple Russian guys named Gene and Alex. They are great guys and do good work. They primarily work on street bikes but fix quads too. I believe their labor rate is $40 an hour.

I looked up the name and could not locate modded motorsports. Anyone have a phone number or street address? Thanks I got the bike in the back of the truck and was going to drop it off at Barney's of St Pete but if Steve is recommended I'll try him.

I know he's over off of Haines rd and 54th Ave N (unless he moved) but I don't have a number for him. Send him a pm.

Thanks for the input. I will contact Steve in the morning. You can tell how frustrated I was if I was thinking of Barney's for a repair.
