 |
|
After a shambolic experience with once place who handed an SV650s curvy back in worst condition than it went in I need a good mechanic who can actually say . .. use a spanner.
I was booked in at Victor motorcycles in Bedminster after recomendations but sadly one of their guys is laid up after an accident so they have a huge backlog.
Next move was JHS racing (SV specialists) but their guy is on the isle of man until the end of July.
They don't have to be suzuki specialists - just reliable.
The bikes front carb is misbehaving and popping the airbox off shows the slider barely wobbling. Diaphragm? It also has the hallmarks of a vacuum leak - same issue? It's the girlfriends bike and I've promised to get it fixed.
Anyway - not looking for a diagnosis here - I simply don't have the time to fix it with my own bikes needing work as it is.
If anyone can recommend a good bristol mechanic who won;t bull5hit us that would be great.
Really once it's fixed we just want to sell it but I can;t bring myself to sell it until it's tip top. ____________________ Zooooooom

I would have said JHS. Had a couple of pain free dealings with them now.  ____________________ Currently enjoying products from Ford, Mazda and Yamaha
