omg. I feel so bad for you. The House of Power has the worst service department in the world. If you get so frustrated with your sickle that you feel like squeezing off a 45 into it, you would be well advised to do so before you ever think of returning to the HOP. Both Cycle Riders shops are another big no-no.

Unfortunately, the man you could have seen to service your ride has been taken away from us by Newnan. Paul Runion. He had Adventure Motorcycle Company off of New York Avenue in Melbourne. If you are serious about having someone who gives a dern about trumpets, I would recommend Joe's Garage. Jeff Ruthishauser, joes_garage@yahoo.com. Look his number up in the phone book. Jeff will do you right. He is one of the very few guys that fixes the House of Power's screw-ups. Paul Runion was another, and a guy named Geoff who works for Southern V-Twin, 1550 Cypress Ave, Melbourne, FL 32935, (321) 255-1600. Geoff might not want to but you should give him a ring just for the heck of it. Great guys both Geoff and Jeff. Top notch. Here's Geoff.


Here's Jeff (on the left)


Hope this helps. Aside: Rode to the House of Power yesterday. The House of Power did not have any Triumph gloves. They had eighteen folks wandering around ready to sell you something. Terrible place. Just terrible. kaczynski should have mailed one his packages there...
