    Yes, sorry - bad grammar on my part, I apologise profusely.
    Upon review I can confirm that they are two seperate photographs and the two articles of clothing were not combined.

    Before you judge a man, walk a mile in his shoes. After that, who cares? ...He's a mile away and you've got his shoes

    I hope that you do realise that it's a privilege to spend time underneath the timeless words of Mikey.

    So that's why Trashy did so well.

    All these other shops bend over backwards. :-)

    This thread has been going for a while now...

    And still the worst bike shop in Christchurch is Casbolts... still make you wait, still show no interest and when you ask about a bike they just say no thats all we've got and walk away...

    And Next on my list is Canterbury Rides, ignorant barsteward stayed talking on the phone for ages while we stood around obviously wanting service, walked out when none was forthcoming...

    I spent over $13,000 last year on new bike and gear...their loss...
    I'm out of my mind, but feel free to leave a message.

    Dunno about the worst but in Auck I had great service from Geoff at Red Barons on Gt North Rd, very helpful, friendly and did a great job doing some work on my bike.
    Henderson Yamaha, recently changed management - went to buy some stuff last week, not in stock but got it in quick and everyone there was helpful and friendly

    Budget Spares in Wilsons Road Waltham in Chch get a big tick in the box for accessories and service. People in the shop get served while people on the phone hold. However this is done to the people on the phone in the most polite way possible.
    Also spent 10-15 minutes sorting out mirrors, to maske sure i got the right type, give 1 yr warranty with batterys they sell and made sure i got the right parts and didn't dick me round. all pretty reasoanble priced too
    $75 for 12-A4 Battery
    $35 for aftermarket indicator
    $30 for mirrors.
    For repairs taking my bike to KG motorcycles in Wordsworth st on monday but so far has been good service answering his phone while he is still on holiday.

    Have to agree there Hamptons are bloody good.
    Sportzone will always come up and ask if you need help.
    Trevor Pierce are bloody good too...


    Casbolts can still enjoy the great big MIDDLE FINGER from most bikers in Christchurch.... they are the worst ever bike shop I have come across !!!!!

    I wonder if Casbolts know that everyone thinks they're cunts?

    Brought my Duc off them. I emailed all the Duc dealers 2 yrs back asking if they knew where I could get a NZ new model that I still have. They were one of only a few that emailed back. Think it was a guy Craig (?) who did know, sourced it, convinced the guy to sell it to them, sold it to me, freighted it up, all's good.
    No probs whats so ever.

    One and only dealing, so thought I'd give them a plug.
    Might cheer them up.
