Place in the Bay Area to get a frame checked?
«

Peter asked me to find a place for him to get the frame of the V-Strom checked. We want to get the bike back in good condition over the winter (it runs just fine but has quite a bit of cosmetic boo boos from his tangle with the minivan in July).
Is this something any competent mechanic can do, or does it need special tools/etc?
Anyone know of a good place to take it?

We don't think it actually IS bent; we just want to have it checked for peace of mind.

Try Evolution Suspension. They are or used to be GMD Computrak center. I know they do frame geometry and plenty of other services. I've never heard anything but praise for them.

Don't those who are expecting have special powers? I'm guessing you could straighten that frame with one wave of your hand. . ..

Right now my special powers are limited to the ability to pee at will and cry over nothing.
