How's the service at cyclespot workshop?

[Maha]

Since when has the fitting of new tyres been part of a bike service?

They won't call me or reply my emails. I have heard of this about Cyclespot before. If it were me I would go and see Grant.

The head mechanic there is a rude dude. I Had a crash assessment done there and was going to buy a bike off them. After a conversation with the mechanic I bought private. Utter twat.

For $1700 you could get an awesome set of tools and diy.

This.

Out of interest whats the charge out rate for motorcycle mechanics?

Trades I engage are in the 65-100 range with specialist ones over that.

Quality is like most things variable.

It's not. But the OP asked for new tyres.

$600 for new tyres fitted is cheap. I wonder what the tyres are?

Hang on mate - your $1700 includes $600 worth of new tyres.

Mechanical is $1100. Honda service intervals for the valves tend to be 24,000 and change from a grand is tight. Plugs due at the same change - $75 each ? Iridium but that is bloody expensive ..... wait for the invoice I guess!

Found this on Youtube ....... if he's doing it the right way what a pain in the arse!

The $1700 does not include tyres, $600 is on top of it, I'm paying $2300 all together. Hopefully you are right about other stuff.

$1700 is just for service, I'm paying extra $600 for the tyres

Yep, that's definitely how I felt about him.

It's Bridgestone.

My I bought the bike, the front had no tread left, the rear was real old, They recommended to just replace both.

$1700 for a full servicing... I'd expect it to include spark plugs and perhaps a 3 course dinner, movies and a massage.

$600 for a set of good tyres is reasonably priced. Recently got Bridgestone S20 Evo and they were around that price range.

How's your Bridgestone? Good grip? How about in the rain?
