There is a lengthy rambling bio on this website, but this short page is just to explain about Fleischer's Service!
I am in the very slow process of selling the assets of the
electronics repair business of Fleischer's Service (now is mostly musicians
electronics work). Contact me if
you are interested in electronics parts, repaired and not picked
up HiFi items, etc. I have many
thousands of parts.
Some of the parts are left over from a car audio business I had, but 95% is for
home audio and musicians electronics. I have a garage full of items. Test
equipment will be the last to go; although I AM going to dispose
of a few signal generators, meters, and power supplies NOW.
If you want a business...I might consider selling it intact, for
$12-$15 K.

Fleischer's Service is the present name of a still existing & operating company, presently consisting of just me, that now services MOSTLY musician's electronics; but does do some home HiFi, stereo, industrial electronics, and some engineering, consulting, and commercial work, as Fleischer Electronics & Engineering Services. I presently work only part of the afternoons, and my shop, greatly minimized, is now located in my large garage. Fleischer's Service is the umbrella that owned Fleischer's BMW Service; Fleischer Electronics & Engineering Services, ETC.
I have had other businesses
here:
A charter flight company that also taught flying (Fleischer's Aviation Services)
An aircraft radio company (Fleischer's Flight Radio).
A car audio company (Ultimate Auto Stereo) that did retail sales and
installations.
I traveled and troubleshot problems for other companies, as a
representative for several companies, including Alpine, Clarion and Pioneer.
I also did this for BMW dealerships in California, a long time
ago.
A BMW motorcycle custom work shop (Fleischer's BMW Service).
A machine shop, that had two parts, one did mostly car items, the other did
custom items (Fleischer's Machine Services; Machining by Flash).
An antique motorcycle repair, restoration, and buy/sell company (Fleischer's
Antique Bikes)
I was an officially emancipated juvenile, so was out on my own and had my own electronics repair business when I was 15. I kept my base electronics business all these years, expanding it or contracting it, depending on what I wanted at the time. That business was called Fleischer Electronics & Engineering Services; and it was the original full name of my first business. I had quite a few employees several times at the various businesses. The base business expanded and other businesses were added. Decades later, as I headed ever so slowly towards retirement, I shrunk the businesses. Now the repair, consulting, and engineering businesses are all just me, it is located in my large garage-shop, with my office at home, and I now work just a few hours, and 80-85% is musician's electronics. I still have the engineering business, but take on few jobs. I no longer have my auto stereo installation business (Ultimate Auto Stereo); nor, the aircraft radio business, nor do I have Fleischer's Machine Services, which was a machine shop; and the BMW service business was shut down completely as it was taking way too much of my time, for not much income. My present company is a warranty station for many well-known musician's electronics manufacturer's, such as Fender, Korg, Marshall, ETC. The balance of my work, maybe 15%, is a mixture of HiFi, commercial and industrial electronics. I do a small amount of consulting and engineering now and then.
Since I do other work besides Electronics, and did not want my E-mail nor company checks,....and a few other things...to have the long misleading (at times) names, ....some years ago I simply started using "Fleischer's Service". That way I need only one E-mail account, one checking account, etc. My resale licenses, and registrations, etc., all refer back to the original name.
Yes, to make this clear.....I no longer do any type of BMW motorcycle work for others in any formal business arrangement.
I had several lengthy careers, such as one in the military and
for a U.S. Government Agency (two, actually), for a long time.
A discussion of those
things, photos, etc., are on my non-commercial hobbyist BMW website in the biography article. Since you are
probably reading this because you are a BMW motorcycle owner, you probably also
know that I apprenticed myself to some BMW motorcycle dealerships some decades
ago, and worked at Winklemann BMW; and was initially just an apprentice tech but
worked myself up to chief technician and finally the head of the
shop. I've been very heavily involved with BMW airhead bikes in a
number of ways since the fifties.
