Good Bike Mechanics? - SV650.org

06-12-06, 08:03 PM

Anyone know any good independent bike workshops in the area?

I wanna get my sv serviced by somebody who knows what they're doing, but don't want a suzuki dealer ripping me off.

i live in ely just north of cambridge but would travel with the region for a good mechanic.

Flitwick Motorcyles are good. They are a Yamaha/Triumph dealer but service all makes etc.

I got my first bike from them 18 odd years ago and a couple of the guys who worked there then are still there now - for a small independant garage in a small town in Bedfordshire that has done nothing but grow, I'd say that's not bad going.

I've just seen that my "Nah" came directly after your post, and was meant as a retort regarding Hallens. Big sorry
