...ah the old (new) 125 we (you) built. ;)

Yeah, that shop is in Fontana...off of Sierra, near Arrow, IIRC....Just make sure the insides are clean b/c they don't want to contaminate their tanks with oil/spooge.
The CR500 is an acquired taste. If you don't like it, acquire some taste...

Freemer said to go to the out of state places like Clydes guy because they don't have to adhere to the strict guidlines that chromers in Cali do, so they do better work. I guess the good places use alot of bad chemicals then just flush said chemicals down into the sewer, in Cali that practice is frowned upon. :o
