Title: Leo's South Kawasaki dealer, in Minn.
Post by: connie and me on September 09, 2015, 07:07:30 PM
Hello folks, fellow Minnesotan's, I have to get this Valve check done, on my 2012, 21,000 miles. Was wondering if any of you had any dealings with the service dept. their?  I don't know where else to go, I really don't trust ANY dealer,( car or bike) and I can NOT do this myself. Not enough tools, and patience.... Or anyone know of a good private person?   Sure wish Fred H. was closer.. :(

I haven't used Lloyd yet either, but he was recommended to me by another member.  I have an extended warranty so most of my work has been done by Leo's with good results.  I skipped the valve work at the 15k service and am planning on using Lloyd to do it at 25k, probably over the winter.  And he's about 2 miles from my house  :)

There is a great independent shop in Loretto, mn just north of lake independence.  Had my calves checked there and was $250.  Al were in spec and that includes changing my air filter...
