If you can even _find_ a shop that works on bikes that are more than 10-15 years old. The Honda dealer closest to me charges $90/hour for the newer bikes, and $125-150/hour for anything older than 15.

I eat all of my complaints. I'm paying $85 an hour for labour -- vintage bike specialty shop. I shall no longer complain.
[when I bought the bike I was going to take it into our "regular" shop for its safety, and they sent me to where I now go --said "go there -- he knows what he's doing on those bikes more than we do, and he's cheaper too".
