Default HK is overly expensive though

I was just talking with someone tonight who agreed with HK's prices and motive and they said they used to be at $90.00 hourly but lost too much business and dropped to the current $80. I do believe they are taking advantage of this location and the influx of tourism. The sad part is that back in the late 90's and early 2000-2001 they actually had some really good mechanics. Some whom I know left because management just did not make it a pleasant place to work. Since then their reputation for doing quality work has gotten worse and worse. I honestly believe if there was more competition they would either go under or be forced to change their ways.

As for Laconia Motorbike his rates are $50.00 an hour, I just talked with him today.
