So I rode my SV from Oakland down to Camarillo (in Ventura County). Beautiful ride along Hwy-1 and then across 166 and down the 33. Absolutely wonderful.
The bummer news is that my bike broke down 30 minutes from my destination. I was able to get a pickup truck and make it the rest of the way, but now I need to get it fixed and ideally head back to Oakland on Monday. I doubt that is going to happen, but I was wondering if anyone could recommend a local mechanic? Or if they know the local Suzuki dealerships. There is one in Ventura, Thousand Oaks, and Simi Valley. Does anyone have any experience with any of them?
Or if there are any really amazing Samaritan-Mechanics out there that might be able to help out on a weekend?
I don't know what's wrong with it. As I came off a freeway ramp it dropped into neutral and died. When I went to grab the clutch there was no resistance in the lever. Almost like the cable had been cut. And within a short amount of time there was a pool of oil under the bike. It doesn't look good. :'(
Thanks for any and all help.
