Bike Smart, Taylors Garage in Droxford on A32. Only place to go in the area, absolutely fantastic blokes, won't rip you off either.

Yes, and a bloody good one at that, after I had such a fantastic, cheap and quick thing done to my bike, I decided to take my car there for its MOT too.

Not a long waiting list at all, I sat and waited for my work to be done, and they give you a hot drink while you wait too
