Cycletreads, you are crap

pulled bits of cloth out from under the fork seal like I have on bikes I've bought too have ya

Actually, it's the coating of oil on the brake disc that usually gives it away.

Ya can't bloody win though, apparently Wellington Motorcycles are all good except the coffee's deadly...

Lol. Bollocks! The coffee is the highlight of your visit here. But hey...we (all of us in the trade) can all get it wrong from time to time. As long as you do your best to sort things everyone should be (semi) happy.

I can vouch for that, I was awake for three days after one cup of that ''special'' brew!

Who's to say the peanut that traded the bike didn't do that to shaft the shop? You'd be amazed what we see mate. Some time ago...a regular customer dropped his bike off to have it's pre purchase check done...went through the workshop with flying clours. His new Harley turns up...so then he brings his trade in back to collect the new one. We obviously don't bother with another check (silly us)...and then when the mechanic rides it after grooming it for the showroom...the clutch is absolutely fucked. He'd swapped out his heavy duty job for a totally fucked std unit. Nice. Trust is a two way street.

$20 was probably for the time it took to troubleshoot the tag light not working. I'm guessing the mechanic changed the bulb first (like you do) then had to go a little deeper to sort out no voltage to lamp.

Then he finds the fixture unplugged, smacks his head, says "Doh!" Talks to service manager who tells him "Just charge him a little extra for a bulb, chalk it up to experience."

Fair comments about getting things wrong sometimes but doing your best to sort it out Cfwb. However, some companies and it's not just motorbike shops, do things better to start with.

Farrk it must be special brew alright, it kept you awake for 3 days and yet knocked Buzzardnz out.

Couldn't agree more mate!

No offence mate but settle pettle and maybe I should have said it was private purchase but jeesh .

Trust IS a two way street i agree.

A favourite of bike shops years ago (with trail bikes anyway) was to insert a tool to tighten the cam chain a bit more than the adjuster spring itself and sell with the hope it would last long enough to be away from warranty.
First thing i did was undo the tension adjuster nut to find out.
