Spanner Man - another happy customer
 

I went to see spanner man for my 11K service last week and thought i'd give him a little plug as i was so happy with him and what he did to my bike.

He gave it a real good going over - i can't remember everything he did but it included:
stripping down and cleaning the brakes
new brake pads
new fluids - oil, brake fluid, coolant.
new air / oil filter.
two new spark plugs.
cleaning and greasing suspension linkage
balancing carbs
removing my ugly hand guards
fitting 2 new conti road attacks (to replace my original 11k mile / 7 year old square Z4s!)
Loads of other general tweaking and adjusting.

All this for the bargain price of £330 - much cheaper than a suzuki dealer, and as u can hang around whilst its done u know its being done properly, by a experienced mechanic who takes pride in his work.

I think everybody on here should go and see him for a service. I had a 250 mile round trip, but it was well worth it, and the ride home was amazing - like i had a new bike.

See u in another 4k miles spanner man!
:cheers: :cheers: :cheers: :cheers: :cheers:

Sounds fantastic value.

After the tyres (£150), pads (£40), filters and plugs (£30) it means the labour was around £110 for a service that includes virtually everything barring valve clearances. And done by someone who takes pride in his work.:cheers:

Got no problems going to see the Spannerman when I needs tyres etc... .

Good honest service.

Sounds good, where abouts is spanner man?

Re: Spanner Man - another happy customer
 

Just outside Nottingham, and yes, I am stalking you :lol:

Look up his profile on the org (search > advanced search, posts by user, then to the profile) & he has a link to his website with contact details inc phone number.

Glad other folks on the org have made use of his services :)

It's nice to see that you guys are happy with my services, especially when some of you come quite a distance. (except Baph who comes from another country):)

Cheers.

Are you saying that Wales is close to you? Or is it just the sheep?:rolleyes:

Re: Spanner Man - another happy customer
 

Ok plug noted. Good to do when someone deserves it. Will keep in mind as I'm sure there will be a time when I want someone else to give the bike a good going over.

Re: Spanner Man - another happy customer
 

Morning all.
I was wrong about Baph, he appears to come from another planet:D
& yes I do like sheep (young ones with mint sauce) lol.

Cheers.

Spannerman,
