Looking for some feedback on your experiences at JP. I've mostly delt with Nielsen in Lake Villa, and have mostly been unimpressed. I'm looking to get a laser alignment and wondering if I should take the longer trip out to Woodstock. It's seems that JP is also $25 more for the work, but it's defiantly worth it if they are more detailed. Appreciate any of your feedback!

I had my laser alignment done at Jim Potts and I actual waited a couple of weeks before deciding if the laser alignment made a difference. Today I can honestly say it did. My RT handles much smoother in the turns. Gator the service tech knows his stuff. I have the utmost confidence in their service.

So what do laser alignments cost?
Macca... Thanks for the feedback. Good to know that you felt a difference. Nielsen charges $95 for their alignment. From what I've read, if you have a 10' the alignment can make a big change in the way the bike tracks

Jim Potts all the way in my book..Nielsens blew a 30K sale from the salesman getting in my facing telling me he didn't say this and that..I walked out..Never again..Quote:

I talked to salesman there and he was more than accommodating to answer my questions as I tire kicked with him for 45 minutes.
I really like the guy at Nielsens. I want like to look out for any hidden sales dangers. Can you PM me if you don't want to go into details?
Generally a laser alignment is around $125.00.

to Robs Performance in Johnson Creek Wi. Good operation with sharp techs. They do laser alignments, they did my 14'...Quote:

I'd absolutely recommend it. Our bikes go to Potts regularly and I'd consider them very well maintained.
My 2 cents is that I would not do business with any other dealer but Jim Potts. He has done me very well. Never had to leave my bike for service without getting something to drive home. Gator is top dog. Bob
