Sounds silly, but there are shops that have no idea about the intricacies of this bike.
For example, last summer I took my bike for service to a smaller shop in Etobicoke when she was running rough, but the guys working there almost sounded like they were afraid if it. "If something is wrong with the Vtec or the timing, we can't help with that" they said, like my bike was some sort of machine that only Honda shops can work on. They actually did figure out that my O2 eliminator had rusted and did some other work, but I'm hesitant to take it back there in case there is a timing or valve problem (which is unfortunately common with my model).
Add onto that, the fact that I've had only bad experiences with service at actual Honda PowerStore locations, so I'm hoping there is someone in the GTA that specializes on Hondas - specifically VFRs.
Any suggestions? She is running rough again at cruising speeds & I'm seeing the mileage slowly get worse.
Thanks for any suggestions
