One of our best guys used to work there, and he says he's fine!
I've had tyres replaced and valve clearances done on the SV, also a few WOFs.
Richard's a top guy and takes care of your bike. Not one scratch. Prices fair too.

Many many moons ago a mate had a crashed GSX750 (E?) rebuilt there, and thought it took too long and cost too much. But then, this mate of mine was a bit dodgy anyway.
Measure once, cut twice. Practice makes perfect.
Richard's is my local and I've taken my bucket to him for several small things I couldn't do myself and he's done some minor repairs on my Hornet also. I have found both Richard and Judy awesome to deal with, will go out of their way to help and find cheap parts and treat the bikes with care, even my shitty old bucket. Richard calls a spade a spade and doesn't suffer fools lightly, but if you don't act like a cock when you go in to see him he'll generally be polite, but because he knows his shit you can generally deal with his somewhat abrupt manner, then again, sometimes it's just nice to get decent service from a bike shop instead of a whole lot of bullshit and bravado.
I've taken my bikes to Richard and he's always been great. Wouldn't hesitate to take my bike back to him.
Taken my bikes there for last 10 years.
Knowledgable and practical mechanic.
He doesn't waste your money on tedium.
Ive been very happy with the service there.

i go there for the turbo bits and bucket bits.. i used to have a CB350/4.. he rebuilt it for me, great price... i killed it on a race track a couple of years later...![]()
what a ride so far!!!!
I've had Richard work on my bikes for the last few years. He's a top bloke who really knows his stuff. He'll also give you his honest opinion on any work you're considering.
Get most of my road bike work done there, as others have said, no bs assessments and fair pricing.
Maintain the dirt bike myself
Smoke 'em if you have 'em
You run what you brung, and pray you brought enough
Richards shop is great. Taken my sons bike there a few times.
The lady that works there (his wife???) was great allways trying to help.
Richard is stright to the point... Had no problems with him at all.
If you are behind me
Dont ask as I am lost too.
been in there a few times, he's very knowledgeable and is quite happy to recommend a cheaper product if it's fit for what you need it for. That's the mark of good service for me so he gets a big thumbs up![]()
