Just want somewhere fair and reasonable. Don't want another 5-minute "discussion" about TUV- approved brake levers.

Guy behind Motomail on College hill,.. cant remember his name. He's just fine for WOF's and small jobs but I had a bad experience with him on an electrical problem so I wouldn't use him for much else.

I've never had issues with VTNZ Parnell, or the one near Mt Eden.

The AA in St Johns is pretty good, nice bunch of older guys all into their bikes down there.

That's what I was told, yet he still had my fireblade for 3 months and gave it back in worse nick than it was in when I handed it to him. He also said he had changed the plugs and done the valve clearances but when I had it checked else where only 3 plugs were new and 1 of those was incorrect.

Maybe he was just having a bad few months,.. who knows

Thanks but didn't get anything relevant when I searched. Will try again using Google. That link would useful if I lived out West.
