Morning all,

I’m not a very prolific poster (mainly due to being an anti-social beggar) but have been registered reader/lurker for a few years and have taken much useful advice from the folks here. My SV’s battery had died and the bike was in need of a service. I took it along to Stewart’s (spannerman on the forum) at Kirkby-in-Ashfield and he did really thorough job, replaced the battery and convinced me to put a set of Hagon fork springs in at the same time to replace the spongy standards (wanted to replace them for ages but always struggled to justify it). All with a nice discount knocked off the price for mentioning the forum and we had a good chat and a bit of banter at the same time. Even if you have to travel a bit to get there I’d say its worth it as you get the kind of service there that you struggle to get at some of the bigger dealerships.

Cheers, Dan.
