I've know Larry and Kathy for 20 years or so. Not too close, but I brought him a significant amount…read moreof work when I first started buying and restoring my 1st two 80's Sportsters. I am an electrician and was hired by them to repair the storefront lighting and a couple of other electrical items way back around '08 or so. Did a bunch of work at their residence as well. Resolved a couple of overload electrical situations for them. I paid him his fair(ish) shop rate and he paid what I asked. But in fact, my rate with him was very gentle. HALF the hourly I was charging 'call-in' customers. And I was already way below rate with everyone because of the bank BS foreclosure/recession/crash thing that was happening then. I finished those bikes and haven't been doing much other than working, working since then and hadn't seen them till about a month ago. I brought to them a spoke front wheel that needed a tube. Dismount, tube purchase ($20), balance and re-mount. Firstly and as usual, anytime I ask how he is doing, I have to sit there and listen thru one or more long, dragged out personal story about whatever the subject is I regrettably bring up or that he feels he needs to fully elaborate on. Interesting ever? Not really. If one can keep up, one can maybe get a little tech data out of the rant. Always terribly difficult to understand him and always one sided. "Yeah?", ummhuh..., that sucks!, oh really?, no way!, and the like are about all one can add to one of his counter-sit novels. AND, the entire time I'm there at the counter painfully listening and intermittently trying to divert the conversation to a close, his fucking two large German shepherds-one esp-are K-9 police dog growling, barking and approaching the 3ft tall toddler fence they have holding the drooling one back anytime I simply adjust my standing position. Fucking scary, nerve wracking and DANGEROUS! Isolate the fucking dog man. Esp if you know the person standing in front of you and everyone else in the store. Quiet _____, Quiet!" over and over doesn't do shit and probably won't make a fuck bit of difference should that dog get a hold of a hand or get past that irresponsible toddler fence. Everything else seemed in order. I didn't ask about the price, just wanted to get out of the store at that point. I figured $50, $60 bucks. $20 for the tube, $30 for the labor. An auto tire change is roughly $20-$30 and includes lifting the car, wheel removal, a dis-mount, a repair, balance, remount, and re-install. I took my wheel to Larry's only because it was close to where my bike is stored. AND because I thought It would be nice to catch-up a little. I have a good friend in common with them who is away. After making it thru Larry's personal jabberwocky and receiving my repair ticket, I left the store. I received the 'ready for pick-up' call a couple of days later and went down. $110.00 for a tube, dismount, balance (spoke weights), mount, and a shop supplies charge? $60 fucking dollars for labor to change a fucking motorcycle tire OFF THE BIKE? Shop supply fees? Seems that Larry's is just like everyone else who's internet fucked. No rear view mirror, disconnected, underlying hostility of whatever leached-in sort, and distracted. Enough to shit-can their business and personal integrity. With me anyway. I wish them no Ill will. But just as other folks from the past I've had to reconsider. Go Fuck Yourselves. Maybe go back to a reasonable and personable $20-30, off the bike dismount/repair/balance/mount charge? Esp with past, loyal, pay in full and on time customers. And then there's the discount residential electrical work... But never mind my assumption of an "in kind" repair fee gesture: ONE HUNDRED & TEN dollars for a single cash & carry tube and tire service??? I DO NOT recommend Larry's Cycle. For wheels & tires anyway. Unless you don't mind paying dealership prices. $110.00 for a tube and tube replace... Fuck Me. Cost for 4 new auto tire dismount/balance/mount is about $110 bucks. A little different process but not by much. Find a utube video, get parts off the internet (as they and everyone else does) and repair or replace it yourself.
