lion,
Here's a forum that some may not be aware of: City Data.
City-Data.com Forum: Relocation, Moving, Local City Discussions
The 'Kansas' forum is a bit thin, as are the threads I pulled up using 'Fort Riley', but maybe worth a read for info on area.
I would GOOG Fort Riley area for 'BMW Mechanic'...I bet there is at least one in Topeka, the Capitol, about an hour east.
Nice country, as I've ridden through there several times on CC m'cycle trips. I like 'Eastern KS". Good luck, and keep your damn head down!
