Quote: Originally posted by Sweetwater  | I'd like to make a list of the towns along Baja that have a motorcycle shop that stocks some essentials. Let's say tubes, motorcycle oil and other

I know of a Honda and BMW shop in La Paz but don't know of other cities or towns that have them. This is for those of us who ride unsupported by a
chase vehicle.
Please state the town, the name of the shop and if you know addresses or phones you get bonus points. For clarity, I'm not so interested in the border
locations but further down the road.
Gracias.

No chite, especially if you have an unusual size chain (525). We had multiple 520 replacements in our kits and available to buy. Two of us were
covered but we didn't know about the third bikes size until the chain failed. That rider will carry a spare or convert his sprockets and chain to the
520 size.

I have been in the Mulege Bukovicz shop several times when gringos have stopped with problems and watched Daniel refuse payment for minor fixes some
of which took damned near an hour.
Richard and I were there when Daniel stored Nikki's CBR600 overnight and then fixed its coolant leak the next day for nothing thus getting her on her
way to central america without delay
Also, they are a good source of recommendations when the problem isn't something they do like A.C. recharging. I am Spanish language retarded so going
to people who put up cheerfully with my marooonic attempts at communication is a big plus.
