    Default Looking for a good technician

    Anyone know of a good local technician to the Dallas/Mckinney area? I'm looking to have my revalves redone (if needed) and my piston and rings changed on a 2007 CRF250. Would like it done this week if possible.

    so you want your revalved suspension revalved? or you want your valves done and a topend? Im in Stephenville, but you might give Piper a call or Chad at Factory Tech Racing, both of them are closer to you and do good work

    my bad, was typing to fast.

    I would like my intake and exhaust valves checked and adjusted/fixed if neccessary. My bike has become VERY hard to start and doesn't seem to have the same compression. It's two years old and ride it pretty hard so I'm thinking a new piston and rings would be a good thing plus the valves if they need it.

    Do you have a contact for either of those guys? What's the going rate for his type of work?

    yeah they do look pretty close. It confuses me sometimes too. Guess I'm going to have to put an action shot up there or something once I quit spending all my money on this dang bike and get a decent camera
