Beg to differ bud as I was racing MX in 1980 and Baden Leighton was my Mechanic & a close family friend and worked at Norjos along with Craig Willis, John Hughes, Mike ?? (nickname Blood & Guts) and they were there on Riccarton Rd then
Also Paul Easterbrook was out at Fernside (Rangiora) at the same time as we used to get the Marshalling gear & other items from the shop for the meeting that used to be held at the Sefton circuit. The shop was just on the bend in the road heading into Rangiora just further towards rangi from where Bob McCleary is now.
Your right though in one respect there was a wee bike shop in on one of the back streets just off Papanui Rd in the mid 80s
