location for valve adjustments

[Slick 50]

I just read where Termite had his bike adj. for around $50. Termite, can you let me know who to call to get mine adj.? I have approx. 17,000 on my Retro and I didn't want to pay the stealers price of $300-500. I would be greatful. Also I am nw here and I am glad to see other VTXers from Indiana on the board. I have a 2002 candy apple red. Ultimate seats, 6"risers, leatherlyte, saddles, etc. Wouldn't trade for another ride except to get a newer vtx. :mcrider:

Same to ya. Did I see spokes? I almost went that way. As soon as I figure out what I need to put a picture of my bike on there you'll see mine. I haven't figured it out yet. I like your back ground. Are you going to the VTX 1000 miler? I have my reservations at the hotel there alreeady an biting at the bit to go. Happy trails. :mcrider:

Yep, Spokes, a beauty and a pain if ya know what I mean. Chomping at the grips to get going to the 1000. Should be a blast. Staying at the Hampton Inn.
Maybe this will help with the picture thing.

Got a valve adjustment at Dreyer Honda in Indianapolis for my VTX1800. They charged me $204. Normally, I would have done it myself buy I didn't have the time. Interesting, the service manager told me he would probably only have the adjustment done about two times and then forget it after that unless the valves started ticking.
