Good suzuki servicing

Hi

Can anyone recommend a good Suzuki dealership in Essex / East London that provides decent servicing (customer service and reliability) as my 11k service is now due and I'd like to keep the service book up to date with the stamps.

Thanks and Happy New Year!

There isn't one.

I live in East London so I tried finding someone close but I didn't like any of them. Your options are:

Daytona in Islington - bought my bike from them but they charged me a full hours labour for spending 5 minutes checking my bike and 40 minutes trying to get all the part numbers when I had an off, on the first service they didn't tighten the rhs footrest and they didn't top up the coolant even though it was below the low level mark, I had to change the oil after 1400 miles as the bike wouldn't shift gears when it got too hot (that may just be because of crappy oil) and also I couldn't get the sump plug off to change the oil as they had done it up so tight. They're also not cheap.

Double R in Leytonstone - Didn't like the look of them, although they may be perfectly competent and good at what they do I didn't hear anything good or bad so I didn't take the risk.

Metropolis in Greenwich/Vauxhall - Again I didn't use the service centres but both times that I've dealt with sales I've been given terrible service, well I actually got no service as they offer to call me back and they never do, even when I had £4500 to spend on a bike.

If it has to be a Suzuki dealer then I guess people will say go to Premier in Kent or if you can then Steve Jordan in Surrey.

If you don't mind not going to a Suzuki dealer but want good service that's not far away then I'm sure Jelster and the rest will recommend you go to:
Berrington Smith Motorcycles

Only down the A406 really so doesn't take long to get there from East London/Essex, unless your stupid enough to try and cut through Central London and then get lost and turn up 2 hours late for a service.

Brian is your man if you dont mind popping over to orpington/bromley se london, he is good/cheap and can stamp your book as long as he uses genuine suzy parts there is no problem with warrenty claims if you ever need to make 1

Do it yourself?

George White on Shoreditch High Street. I bought my bike from them, and they've done 2 services for me. All seemed okay.

And as they send the bikes over to Swindon (or is it Slough?) because they don't have a workshop in the Shoreditch branch, they should give you a loan bike while yours is away. I've borrowed a Fazer (yuck) and an R6 (wheee) from them before.
