Default Garage/mechanic in Salisbury area

Posted this morning but it seems to have been deleted...did I do something wrong (mods?)

I'm looking for recommendations for a garage/mechanic in the Amesbury/Salisbury area. Want to get the carbs balanced and general check over of the bike as I've been doing DIY servicing and want to check that its all OK. Alternatively if anyone would be prepared to show/help me then I am more than willing to pay them.

Thanks,
Andy

There's a back street place in Amesbury, it's on the right just before the lights as you go towards the Countess roundabout. I think it's called AK Autos, they have a shop and behind that is a garage. Only ever bought bits and pieces for the bike in the shop but a friend uses them to do his servicing and has never had any problems.

Right then, there is:

Hayballs in Salisbury on Churchfields industrial estate - I have never used them and I have heard both good and bad things equalily.

SJS just round the corner, however they specialise in Honda.

As Liz suggests the one in Amesbury.

There's also Burnout bikes on the Downton road - They are a small shop but offer a friendly service.

Thats about it I'm afraid.

Surely living in Blandford it would make sense to go to Crescent Suzuki in Verwood or Bournemouth???

Ahh must change that, I've move to Amesbury now. Dont really want to pay Crescent prices just for a check over, have been to Hayballs for jsut an MOT and would never take the bike back again as I was messed around.
