A proper Motorbike repair shop - SV650.org

I was going to post this in the GM Massive section but it's so refreshing I thought I'd post it here.

I really hope small businesses like this stay alive. Not just in the Motorcycle industry but across the board. Proper craftsman, proper passion and proper care going on there.

What days do they open? I only went twice but both times closed?

They're open Tuesday to Friday and Saturday morning. They're cracking guys in there and really know their stuff.
They do the MOTs on the bikes despite the fact I have an MOT place across the road from me.
When I was rebuilding the step daughters TS50 I found the crank was pretty worn and had mentioned it to Peter and he told me to drop it round. The next day I got a call saying it was ready for me. Peters dad had brazed some brass onto and then turned it down to the right diameter.

Edit: if you do start taking your bike there and get to know them you will more than likely get tasked with making the teas while they do your MOT!
