Default Recommended service centre in Hertfordshire?

Evening all,

Just bought an 05 pointy and am looking for a good place to get it serviced locally. Its only got 6500 miles on it but i think one of the fork seals has gone and i'd like some heavier oil in the forks and some new tyres.

Anyway! If you know a good place to get a 650 serviced, in hertfordshire, please let me know!

robbie

I've always had good experience with www.dcbutler.co.uk - they aren't a solus Suzuki dealer, they service all types, but do a good job at sensible prices.

Thanks for the reply guys!

Sadly i went to Lloyd Cooper which i really didn't want to do . Cost me a fortune for a few bits and bobs and some sportsmarts. Going to pick it up today.

I looked up dcbutler and they seem like a better option and may give them a bash next time, Spannerman in google didn't seem to give me anything? :S

Is there a website?

Cheers guys!!

bit late, but look up hybrid motorcycles. bit of a backstreet outfit but proper mechanics.

based in croxley green, all work is cash only but is half the price of a dealer with better workmanship.

bin going there for the last 4-5 years and not a single complaint.

they also build trackbikes if anyone is looking.
