You don't want your bike in there workshop either.

I guess I will have to travel to Hamilton then, for my next service...
Once the bike is out of warranty, I will go back to Cyclespot, where I always get great service.

They're even worse. they would have to be one of the worse service crew around.

Oggle Trumpys at Heaths, cross the road to Road n Toad for your fix on Charley Harrisons, stroll 50mtrs up to Boyds for a Suzi gathering with KTMs thrown in for flavour. Another 50 paces up to NTB m/cycles has Huskeys and Apes out front, cross the road again, stroll past Heath, (Ham motorcycles, Tri, Kwack, Duck) and pop your head into HD cycles where there is all manner of after market HD gear and some very tasty hogs on display.

My last service was in Hamilton, the one before that was Alexandra and the next will either be Hamilton or Wellington. No problems with having to ride to get the bike serviced.

Should you be good enough to come here Malcolm, I'll happily organize a bike for you to use while yours is here.

Other way around... the bike has to be serviced because you ride

That and Realgroovy, Galaxy and Penny Lane record stores all within that same stones throw, plus decent coffee at C1 or Mondo, plus you could send SWMBO for a wander up and down the High St boooteeeeeks.
