Never heard of them, where are they?
Himself says if they're on Riverside Wharf they're a couple of ex-squaddies and should be OK but he doesn't know them personally.
He recommends you try MC Motorcycles (Mark) in Norman House first.
You could go to RRace in Bewsey (his mate Jeff's business) and ask if Rods can have a look at it or ask them for a contact number for Les Hill who is mobile (but tends to specialise in Kawasakis).
You could possibly go to see Barry Croston who is across the road from Bromleys Tyres - think that one's called Bikesmart?
Mick at MDL sometimes takes on repair work, although he does more breaking and buying and selling these days.
If you go to any of these people, tell them that JB told you about them and you shouldn't get ripped off I hope. ____________________ Sod falling in love, I wanna fall in chocolate.  |

Yams, doesn't monkey man do motorcycle repairs, or is he entirely scooter based? I know you wouldn't like to be seen using the site for advertising but I don't think anyone would mind in this instance. ____________________ “Rule one: Always stick around for one more drink.

SPOD quoted me £150 for full service, £50 to sort the creaking problem, and £24 for the MOT. They didn't mention the mixture problem.
I can't pay that, not for a CG. |
fuckit go visit regents in Bury 2 miles from Whitefield ,
oil + filter £25 (since the CG takes less oil than mine it'll be even less)
+ air filter £5 (£2 labour)
+sparks (your case spark) £15
brake pads (£15 , my front and rear were £29 with labour thrown in included brake fluid too)
£28 MOT ,
what more do you need? less than £70 for a full service ,+ £28 for MOT , tell him a bloke on an firey NTV sent ya for a couple beans more off. ____________________ Spain 2008France 2007Big one 2009 We all die.

manchester ain't far , with your CG doing 120MPG and it running lean (ie 20% better fuel consumption at cost of shorter engine + spark plug life), half a gallon would do it , and you hafta come out to Mancs someday. ____________________ Spain 2008France 2007Big one 2009 We all die.
