Can anyone recommend a reputable, competent, mechanic very familiar with K bikes in the New Jersey area? I don't mind of I have to travel a bit to get to them. I'm going to be keeping my 96 K1100LT a few more years before moving to an R1200RT and want to get some things done that I don't feel comfortable doing myself. Namely a new clutch... Thanks..

Hi, Thomas,
Back in '03 when I bought (now) my '94 K75A/3 off fleabay from the previous owner in Matawan, NJ, Harriet flew there and rode it back to El Paso. Some friends there took her and the bike to their independent BMW mechanic, Mike Kowal. I don't know where he is located (except in northern NJ), but I've seen his name mentioned favorably a few times on various forums. Good Luck!

Hi, Thomas,
I believe the MG Cycles in Howell, NJ is the Mike Kowal in my previous post.
