Dirt bike repairs and maintenance

[socialites]

Hey Guys, simply offering repairs / maintenance to any make of Dirt / Adventure bike from my well equipped home workshop at a fraction of the price asked elsewhere. Anything from wheel/yolk bearing changes, chain and sprocket kits set fitments to 2 stroke/ 4 stroke top end rebuilds. You are also more than welcome to watch me do the work on your ride in my workshop. Come chat to me and get references from people who I have already helped out.

What qualifications do you have to work on my bike? Since you are charging that is?

[socialites]

Who says I am working on your bike?, thats your choice, if you choose NOT to use me for any work you might or might not have, move along..its as simple as that.

That still doesn’t answer my question of what qualification/experience you have to work on a motorcycle/Dirt Bike? You see there are member on here that don’t charge for the odd Friday night gathering.

Although I dont owe you an explanation, I am a qualified multi trade Millwright, which covers Combustion mechanics, Turner machinist, as well as electronics. I have been in the trade for the past 30yrs, have a degree in Engineering science and Designs, as well as Government Ticket (NTC6) back in 1986. I was raised in a biking family, who owned bike shops, raced dirt bikes and I grew up in the workshop from as early as my 8th birthday. I have maintained and ridden bikes from those of the push rod types back in the 60,s to the new models in 2010 and continue to do so.
I personally would not call an top end rebuild, or a gearbox rebuild as a FRIDAY NIGHT GATHERING, but am open to you expressing your democratic right to call whatever you want, what you want, and to take your bike to who ever you want, when you want.

Jeepers Assasin you got your period or own a local bike shop. The guy was just offering to help lessor experienced people at a fraction of the price, even letting them watch and learn over his shoulder. Then you post some gumboot Vid implying he's like one of those guys?? I have none of Socialites qualifications but have helped a few here rebiuld there 2 smokers top ends at Barty's bike nights.

I sense an ulterior motive here!!!

And if your wondering, I don't know or have ever met Socialites!

[bogan]

I notice that Assasin is lurking around other threads posting petty quips about Socialites-
As a Moderator, I will be keeping an eye on this....
