Default Service required, Cardiff area

Bike coming up for its first service, any advice where to take it around the Cardiff area?

I know theres Bevans bur was looking for options, don't mind a little travelling.

If it is your first service, then Bevans may be one option, if not them, then Thunder Road in Bridgend, or theres a Suzuki dealer in Swansea as well...

Mass had big issues with one, didn't he? Info probably lost when site when down but will be worth knowing which one as it sounded a bit horrendous. PM Mass maybe, with the miles he does he must be the SV service guru for south wales

Hi All,


Yep stay well clear of Ken "The ******" Roberts.

And I've not heard many a good thing about South Wales superbikes either. I've heard stories of people leaving their bikes for a service, and not getting the bike back for several days

Bevans I've heard are quite good - and know it, so cost a little extra.

Not too sure of any others.
