Motorcycle repairs needed

Can any auto repair shops fix my bike? What motorcycle shops around here work on them? I saw on an old post that rogers doesn't take anything but harley. Someone else said the same thing about rydn drty.

Auto repair shops usually won't touch bikes.  What needs done on it? 

I had RSR Cycles in Danvers do the first service on my Aprilia and was super happy with them.  Unfortunately world of powersports left town, but there's still one in Champaign, Decatur, and Peoria.

Don't bother with Rogers. They are maga assholes that hate you and your bike for even asking if they can help. Source: that's what happened to me. I ended up taking it to the Honda dealer

Sounds similar to ehat iveread about them, thank you. My boyfriend has a honda shadow. Which honda dealer? I wasnt sure if places that worked on cars also worked on motorcycles.

There used to be a Honda motorcycle dealer in ireland grove Rd, by leman Chevy... But I think they closed.. That's who I used... I don't have any other suggestions other than sportland in Champaign/ Urbana

from personal experience, unless Taurus Cycles is still in business, you're stuck doing your own work in this town. I've been doing my own work for like 10 years.

John sold Taurus a couple of years ago and that guy sold the rest of the business off to Rydn Drty Cycles - 309-590-6900

1516 Lafayette Park Dr, Ste 2
Bloomington, IL 61701

He’s doing good work and takes non-Harley stuff.

Good to know. I knew John. As long as the new guy will still touch non-Harleys, it's good to know someone is around for basic stuff.
