Default List of chopper shops in western wa?

Does anyone have a list of some of the more reputable shops in Western Washington?

I'm doing a rigid bobber build with a buell xb12r efi engine and I'm keeping the efi. Going to need a shop to break down the wiring harness or create a custom one and try hiding most of it in the frame.

If you've had any electrical work done at a shop or know of any that specialize in it, it would be great to hear from you.

Thanks

Thanks for the reply. I'm located in Renton. I found a few places since I posted this. Woodward Cycle Works in Bonney Lake, Nash Motorcycle Co down in Vancouver and Cyclpath Motorcycle & Machine in Kirkland.

I'll be sticking to Woodward for the electrical. I talked to Danny and he's a electrical guru. Said his electrical work is guaranteed until I crash or sell the bike. haha.

Try Old school choppers in longview. They are almost in Oregon but I have heard good things about them.

Woodward did my wiring and a few other items on my scoot. I was completely satisfied with his work and price.

Thank you everyone for the replies. I was starting to think the WA section was dead. :P
