Motor Bike Maintenance courses north east?

hi

does anyknow of any bike maintenance courses in the north east, middlesbrough type area,

new to biking and want to learn more about the bikes themselves so i can look after my future bikes

or any other advice people can give? is it just best to grab a haynes manuel and dive in?

Hi,

Haynes manual is always a good investment anyway. ICS do a homestudy course combined with the Institute of the Motor Industry. Costs a bit but I thought it was worth it when I did it. Gateshead college may also be doing a part time course which would give you an 'official' qualification (I'm still waiting to find out if and when it will start as I want to do it)

Hope that helps

Nik you're better getting involved with the members of the Pennine Massive as there are quite a few of us around here with bikes and we are always doing stuff with them.

In fact, I have a project you could cut your teeth on........

no problems, tbh i never even noticed the lower parts of the forum with different locations, i will drop in and say hi down there

more than happy to, should be getting a SV when i hopefully pass my test on the 10th july

Absolutely. I'm always up for helping/guiding a bit of spannering, on bikes or cars. I offer my time and tools for no more than beer tokens.

Don't trust Dave, He is a tad slow at reading the part about LH threads and letting ham fisted spannerers take the rap.
