    Seeking good Hamilton bike mechanic

    Can anyone recommend a good reasonably-priced bike mechanic in the Hamilton area?
    I got a Yamaha XV250 (Virago) needing a tune-up, some clutch work, maybe some performance work too.

    Thanks for your suggestions
    Cheers

    A good mechanic can help with that...

    A REALLY good mechanic can help you with the tune up and clutch and advise you that performance work on the 250 Virago isnt a good investment of your time or money.

    Since it's a Yammy, I'd go to Nick at Honda Hamilton.

    Plus they are good helpful guys there.

    Plus one for Honda Hamilton, I've spent huge dollars in their workshop and feel like they've done good work for a fair price.

    I got quoted $350ish for a chain and sprocket replacement at hamilton honda, a month later i get it done up in aux and it's over $100 more, should've asked how much it was gonna cost, was silly of me to assume two honda places would have the same costs etc
    could've bought a stand and all appropriate tools for the job for that price
