Georgia GWRRA Chapter A members want to thank Gary, Barb, and Mike for the excellent information that was presented at our first Bike Maintenance Day.  We learned how to do “PROPERLY” check fluids.  Checking engine oil on the 1800 requires warming the engine then waiting a while (several minutes) prior to getting an accurate reading.  We also learned how to check our coolant levels using the reservoir which is not under pressure.
Speaking of pressure, Gary discussed proper tire inflation pressures for bikes and trikes.  Gary had a tire pressure gauge checking device.  We tested our own gauges against this device and found that there was a difference between what the testing device indicated and what our gauges indicated.  My gauge was off 3psi.  Who knew?
Gary did a question and answer session after he finished with the planned activities.  I don’t think that there was anyone there who did not get an answer to any concern that they may have had.  Gary’s Hobbie Shop has always been and continues to be a super resource for all of our Goldwing needs. Thanks again.

  I wanted to "Thank You" for your hospitality and for taking the time to explain some about the suspension system to me. You not only 'sold me' on your knowledge of Gold Wings but 'sold me' on wanting to be a customer as well. Your willingness not to 'oversell' what the customer really needs is a real confidence builder. The Honda dealers in my area of Michigan haven't in 30 years, been able to instill the confidence in me that you did in 30 minutes.
You can bet yer bippy, that when I need the work you spoke about done on my suspension, I'll bring it to you!
I can (and do) change my own oil, filters and tires. But any major (above the previously mentioned is MAJOR) I recognize the need of someone with a little (a lot really) more knowledge than myself.
Thank You also for showing me around not only your shop but also your bike storage garage and parts storage. AND, of course the good deal for the saddlebag trim! Thank You, Thank You, Thank You!!

The new Traxxion suspension is really much more satisfying than I ever thought it would be. I certainly knew it would be better, but I didn't anticipate how much better it was until this ride today. I started out with the rear shock set at 1 for about 40 miles, and then moved it to 2 for about 50 miles, and then 3 for the reminder of the ride. The 3 may be the "sweet spot" for one up. I may try 4 later, but 3 feels so good and the Wing handles so good. I don't have enough vocabulary to tell you how good the MBL risers are to my upper back and arms. 200 miles today and "NO" discomfort anywhere in the arms, shoulders or upper back. I sit pretty much straight up against the backrest now since I don't have to reach for the handlebars. It's amazing what 1-1/2" will do for you.

Gary's as the best selection and prices for Gold Wing accessories anywhere I have found. As far as maintenance on my Wing and installation of the accessories, Gary's Hobbie Shop is the best. They are top notch people that do quality work - they treat your bike as if it was theirs. They simply can't be beat.

I had not ridden a Trike before (other than their front yard). Gary took the time to go over the Trike and explain everything and then took me on a Trike riding short course. Gary and Barb then answered all my questions. I left full confidence that I purchased a sound machine and would be able to handle the Trike. Gary's Hobbie Shop is the place to go if you want to experience outstanding Customer Care (as opposed to Customer Service). Gary and Barb go above and beyond to take care of their customers. After a week and a few hundred miles I know I made the right decision. I love the Trike and I look forward to doing business with Gary and Barb in the future.

I do not just like my trike, I LOVE it. Gary did a great job converting my 2 wheeler to a three wheeler. I can always count on Gary to provide excellent service.
