Who's your "local garage"? where in South Wales are you from ? are you local to pee gee's in Caerphilly, or South Wales superbikes I've had brill service from both of them. But just for local trips I use Pee gees (on bedwas road I believe)

Yes, It's PeeGee that Hovi5 is refering too, I've never had a problem with them, Jabba has used them occasionally and admits they are as "Mad as a box of frogs", I've not noticed them as gloomy. So it's a personal services for just you, Hovi5.

Hovi5 expect to pay a 5% surcharge at Bevans for the crime of bad spelling.

Some dealerships do.

My dealer does. They have my bike all day and they let me have a loan bike to get back to work on. I normally drop off my bike at 9am and collect the loan bike then I go back at 5pm to pick up my bike and drop the loan bike off.

They dont charge me for this either all I have to do is put some fuel in the loan bike. However if I damage the loan bike I have to pay for it or the first £500 of the damage for it anyway.
