$140.00 per hr.... Typical american price gouging in my opinion.Sounds like you are getting one heck of a deal! Most shops will not even listen to your bike for less than $75.00. My local shop charges $140.00 an hour. Yes, you are getting a GREAT deal.
The man is certainly not a fool nor a thief, he is a compassionate human being that believes in 'doing unto others' !! It looks more like he is an honest person willing to give others a break in this crappy economy. Nightrider1 you are a lucky man to know someone like that. Good for you, and good for him!:clapper:For 40 bucks huh, He's a fool to work that cheap.
You would think after all those years he would know how to price a job out.
He's only hurting himself.
If you have any compassion at all you will give him a bonus.
Good on ya Al, I used to do that too and then I made the mistake of setting up in business. It's really amazing how few people know how to do the simplest things, like changing out a light bulb in their car or even checking the battery.. the stories I could tell you, but you have your own!why dose he have to be a fool.i do the samething with cars.i look at what they want done and give them a price.a hell a lot cheaper then the garages would charge.i try to help people out with saveing them some money.i am not trying to get rich.......:waving::waving:
by the way i have been doing this over 20 years............
