Anyone do laser alignment in Alabama?

[Fat Baxter]

The front end of my 2014 RT-S has started twitching again, as it did when I first bought it in 2014, and the front tires are starting to wear on the inside edge of the tread. I had a laser alignment soon after I bought the bike, but the third party (not a dealer) that performed the alignment is no longer in business.

The Montgomery dealer finally got laser alignment capability in June. I took it there but they claim the alignment is OK and toe-in is on spec. My 5 years in the saddle tell me otherwise, as does research across Spyderlovers. A properly aligned front end should feel planted, and what tire wear occurs should be even across the tread. So I think the dealer's lack of familiarity with the equipment is showing.

So I'm looking for someone in the region experienced with the equipment. Anyone have any ideas? (I called the shop in Birmingham and they said they don't do laser alignment.)

Thanks!

ISCI does them.

Nope, not anymore. Jeff did my first alignment shortly after I bought the bike. Later he replaced the rear tire, and later still the fronts. So he was the first guy I called, last Fall for a new rear tire and this Spring for an alignment. He no longer provides these services. In fact, he pointed me towards the local dealer. So that leaves me looking elsewhere.

(BTW, we just traded e-mails, me using my real name.)

I did that. Planned a trip up to Hot Springs Arkansas as an excuse. Got Spyderpops to install my Baja Ron sway bar, laser align the bike, and install the missing belt guard. One caution however. Don't bring too much money, his shop is full of those kind of things that in the heat of the moment you just can't leave behind. I was very pleased with his service, very nice folks to deal with.

The Sport Center in Cullman is where I bought mine a week ago. I asked if they do alignments. They said no.
