Default Spanner Man (Stewarts Motorcycle Repairs)

Hi All,

Just wanted to give some feedback on my last trip out on the SV which was yesterday up to sunny Nottingham to see Stewart at his lovely workshop to get some new rubbers....

All in top bloke, great place...and bloody great value. Set of Conti Road Attacks for £135 fitted with a cup of tea and bit of banter! What more could you possibly want....fantastic...Would recommend to anyone in the "area" even though I am 70 miles away to pop in and give him some trade!

As for the tyres, I am so far impressed! Have managed to do 280 miles since having them fitted and getting scrubbed in just fine! Very impressed with the cornering on them....very confidence inspiring!

Thanks Stewart for the tyres, and for the getting me in at such short notice...about 2 hours...

Hope to see you again soon!

Did you leave any biscuits? :P

I need to pay him a visit, for a few little jobs which will probably turn into 3 days work

Morning all.
Thanks for that, glad you're happy Aim. As It was a tad busy I forgot to get the biccies out
Wheelnut, give me a shout & let me know what you need, & we'll take it from there.

Cheers.

SpannerMan

Do you carry some tyres in stock or do you need a few days notice?
I would like a set of RoadAttacks for an SV650.

I am tempted to get the wheels powdercoated before buying new tyres, which may delay things for a week or two.

If I dont get them coated I am ready for the tyres straight away.

Cheers
Ivan

Evening all.
As a former West London type (the better bit if there is one ) I can only advise the forum that North (or Norf) London types are not to be trusted! After all, Squid are slippery little beggars aint they!

Cheers.
