Anyone in the N. California area know of any shops that work on Buells? I live in the San Jose area and the Buell dealer I go to is garbage. I want to have some work done to the bike (Drummer exhaust, powder coat the headers, replace primary cover and gear cover, and paint the frame) but all I have found so far are sport bike shops who look at me in a confused way, and a few hard core chopper shops who I know laughed at me behind my back as I rode away. As I said before, the dealer is the pits, and at this point I have no shop to take it to for any repair/work I need done. I am not mechanically inclined what so ever (first bike) and I wouldn’t trust myself anyway. Thinking about selling it soon because it’s more trouble then its worth to keep the headaches. ~Dan 2007 XB12s |

The only Buell friendly (at least in the parts and service departments) dealership I know of is Golden Gate HD/Buell located in Novato. They have a bigger shop in Corte Madera that usually has a Buell or two on the floor but they're not as Buell savy when it comes to parts & service. |

Peninsula HD/Buell, Buell of Valejo, Devil Mountain Buell are the shops I know to be pro Buell from American Sport Bike Nights - I'm really liking the Folks at Devil Mountain right now. EZ |

Try Peninsula HD/Buell, they have a tech there who works on only Buells (name escapes me right now) and is an enthusiast. Early on my XB9 broke a a valve spring, the work was covered under warranty, the quality of the work was excellent. It was a complex repair and everything was put back together perfectly. |

Faultline HD (used to be Fremont Cycle Center) in Fremont. I bought my bike from there, you might try them out |
