Any one out there know any GOOOOOOD bike mechanics in South Auckland! I don't want to pay a fortune to be told what I already know...
"Ya bike's fucked mate...." :weird: NSS
I can go to me Doctor for that. :doctor:
I did find one, but then he moved to Nelson :2thumbsup . A bit far to take my bike now.
Any ideas? :grouphug:

I'd heard about Motohaus. Might be worth the trip, just hoping to find something closer to work.

There's that new Honda Dealership in Botany. Address is 3 Trugood Drive off Ti Rakau Drive. Its a new shop and haven't had the chance to try them but had a look at their workshop it looked clean/equipped.
Otherwise I can recommend Motohaus. They do a good job and are open both Sat/Sun.

I work in Takanini, there is one in Tironui Rd, I wouldn't say he's that good though.
There is also a wrecker in Oakleigh Ave, Henry (Takanain Motorcycles), he's got some bits and can get stuff easily. He's also doing deals on Riding Gear, Helmets etc, end of lines or seconds. http://www.motorcyclewrecker.com or 09 268 9657.
I'm still trying to find a decent mechanic though....any one have any ideas.

motohaus 100%
second to that is colemans. ive done heaps of my bikes repairs at colemans and been moderatly satisfied.
plugs for both:
Colemans: I bought a new helmet with a $100 tinted visor. the visors tint wore off in a few months so I took it back and they replaced it on the spot. Cheers guys.
colemans parts are a bit expensive though
Motohaus:
Kerry (manager) is a fucking good guy. he took 30 or so of us Kiwibikers on a Spanner night and taught us all the basics of bike maintenance for free. Impressive since he could have lost a bit of business, after that night I was confident enough to pull my rear wheel off completly and clean out my drum brakes.
without a doubt kerry has all of my business from now on (sorry sarge)
