The obvious suggestion is C.J.Ball (Suzuki) out at Hales...I guess it depends on the year and model and whether it's worth going to a proper Suzuki garage or not....

Hi by the way
Sounds like you just want someone to refer you to a good honest bike mechanic to me! Anyone?
Alternatively there are some very switched on guys in these forums who race and tinker a lot...maybe a techy post in the right place would get you on the way to fixing the issues yourself?

Nah, newbie or not you'll get some help I'm sure, just give it time...if you see nothing in the morning bump the thread. They're a good bunch here and know their stuff, hence why I'm still here even after selling the SV.
edit: I just read your post in the techy section and it doesn't read too well...I've posted a reply for the most part to bump it as you posted yesterday and it probably got missed

A guy I know is **** hot. He specialises in Ducati's but does work on other bikes. He used to prep race bikes. A friend of mine has trusted him with his bikes for years. He's just had a pair of Klein flat slides fitted to his monster and it runs very sweet. He honest of doesn't over charge.
His name is Karl Harrison and his workshop is in Harleston. 01379852020

I'm either just going to replace my rear with a Diablo Rosso II
Or replace both with Avon Storm Ultra II 'S.
Rear size 170/60/17
Front size 120/70/17
Could do either ride in ride out or loose wheel.
Would you want me to supply the tyres.
Mykey.M
07-05-11, 06:14 PM
helloooo :)
loose wheels are £10 each
or if there on the bike its £20 each wheel
isn't a 170 a bit of an odd size? :)
BigBaddad

170 Yup odd owner.
Correct size though.
So I'd be ok to supply my own tyres then, yay happy times. They will be balanced an all?
Mykey.M
09-05-11, 01:03 PM
its easyer and quicker if they are loose :)
yer if you can supply your own tyres that would be great :)
and yes they will be balanced :)

Better buy some then. Cheers.
