Spanner Man - another happy customer

I went to see spanner man for my 11K service last week and thought i'd give him a little plug as i was so happy with him and what he did to my bike.

He gave it a real good going over - i can't remember everything he did but it included:
stripping down and cleaning the brakes
new brake pads
new fluids - oil, brake fluid, coolant.
new air / oil filter.
two new spark plugs.
cleaning and greasing suspension linkage
balancing carbs
removing my ugly hand guards
fitting 2 new conti road attacks (to replace my original 11k mile / 7 year old square Z4s!)
Loads of other general tweaking and adjusting.

All this for the bargain price of £330 - much cheaper than a suzuki dealer, and as u can hang around whilst its done u know its being done properly, by a experienced mechanic who takes pride in his work.

I think everybody on here should go and see him for a service. I had a 250 mile round trip, but it was well worth it, and the ride home was amazing - like i had a new bike.

See u in another 4k miles spanner man!

Sounds fantastic value.

After the tyres (£150), pads (£40), filters and plugs (£30) it means the labour was around £110 for a service that includes virtually everything barring valve clearances. And done by someone who takes pride in his work.

Got no problems going to see the Spannerman when I needs tyres etc... .

Good honest service.

Sounds good, where abouts is spanner man?

Just outside Nottingham, and yes, I am stalking you

Look up his profile on the org (search > advanced search, posts by user, then to the profile) & he has a link to his website with contact details inc phone number.

Glad other folks on the org have made use of his services

Afternoon all.
Glad you're happy Andy, twas a pleasure! I hope you weren't too late getting home.
It's nice to see that you guys are happy with my services, especially when some of you come quite a distance. (except Baph who comes from another country)

Cheers.

Are you saying that Wales is close to you? Or is it just the sheep?

Ok plug noted. Good to do when someone deserves it. Will keep in mind as I'm sure there will be a time when I want someone else to give the bike a good going over.

Morning all.
I was wrong about Baph, he appears to come from another planet
& yes I do like sheep (young ones with mint sauce) lol.

Cheers.

Spannerman,
