Looking for XJ Mechanic in Little Rock

[kervey]

I just moved from Detroit to Little Rock. A week before I moved I had my valves adjusted on my XJ1100 in order to get the carbs tuned. When I dropped it off the bike was running strong. Two days before I left I was told that the valves were now in spec, but I had low compression on cylinders 1 and 2, and the mechanic determined it was from a bent valves in cylinders 1 and 2. Now the bike runs like crap. I am also living in an apartment complex, so I can't work on my bike. My quest is, based on the information I have, does this seem plausible? Does anyone know of a good old metric motorcycle mechanic out in Little Rock? I plan on getting valves from http://crc2onlinecatalog.com/valves.htm (as seen in xschop's post). Any comments on this?

Hate to say it but it sounds like your mechanic bent your valves. It would not have been running strong if the valves were bent when you dropped it off with him. Too bad you don't have a place you can work on it yourself. Good luck.

Is there ANYTHING in Little Rock? I've driven through that area a couple times, and didn't notice anything but signs about Clinton!
