Give this guy a call. I know him well. He's very good and I think he travels down your way occasionally.

F'in excellent TIB!!!

Grant, noticed he will do a discount for 3+ bikes, can you find a 3rd and we can see if we can get em done together?

My mate would be interested but as he is having another op on his shoulder I doubt he will go for it as he has had to sorn his bike.

i'll throw in a comment. There's a reason I like cleaning my bike more than the satisfaction of having a shiny bike. It gives me a chance to inspect the bike and check everything over. Generally speaking I find things that need attending to (side stand needs lubricating, a bolt is loose/missing etc) I recently noticed this when giving my bike the pre winter clean (body panels off, GT85 applied, thoroughly washed bike {including wheels off}, clayed & waxed).

You would pay 50 quid to have your bike washed?

Has the world gone mad?
