yep, he has looked after mine very well too!:thumb2
 
I shall hope to get Mike to do my 1200 later this year when it'll need an annual and and 18000 mile service.
 
Just had my 24K and annual inspection done, very satisfied with the quality of work and great service. Go there!
 
Tyres fitted, seem good prices, nice setup, did small fix on weepy plug FOC will be getting my service business, will be worth the trip from Bristol.

:thumb Known Mike quite a few years top bloke :thumb

sure he reads these Good Luck Mate!!!

Might call in to test your kettle next time i am in cardiff
 
I went there last week to get an intermittent ignition fault sorted.

Mike was extremely helpful and diagnosed what he thought was the fault, this was difficult because it would often cure itself then return 30 or 40 miles later.
He then lent me some parts to try for a week to make sure the problem was fixed before ordering me the new parts. No problems since.

I'll definitely be using him from now on.
Very reasonable labor rates.

Highly recommended.
 
I heard a whisper that Mike was seeking his fortune at Bristol Motorrad (formerly Bath Rd) from now on-any truth in that Mike? :nenau

He is being courted but has turned down some work from them to service my bike on Thursday.
 
Just wanted to say that I have spoken to Mike who is working on my bike at the moment and I can confirm Mike is in Wales to stay! He is a great bloke who does a good job at a very reasonable rate. We should all be supporting him.

I had my GS 1150 Adv Serviced by Mike today. He also did the rear drive shaft seal and fitted new rear brake pads. I was very happy with the service and price and have no hesitation recommending Cardiff Motorrad to anyone. He also spent some time talking to me about my bike and gave me tips on what to watch out for and how to look after it. I will certainly use him come next service time.

Nice one Mike. :thumb2

PS. He told me there is no truth in the rumour that he is off to Bristol.
 
Just got back from having the 12k service done by Mike.

Very good service and I had a pleasant couple of hours chatting with him and his dad as they went about their work.

Very good value too - the 12k service came to about what a BMW dealer would charge for a 6k one.

Mike used genuine BMW parts and Valvoline 20W/50 API SG mineral oil so these costs are much the same. The main cost saving is Mike's much lower labour rate.
Currently, he's not VAT registered so this helps too.
 
use him or lose him

Another satisfied customer for Mike.

Has serviced my new (to me) 1150GSA this week and fitted a new set of tyres. A great job done and a good saving on BM rates.

Also gave me some tips on regular maintenance (cleaning brake pads) which I really must try and do.:augie

I will be back.:thumb
 
!2000 mile serice plus annual just completed by Mike.

Excellent value and attention to detail.
 
Great service and advice

Having had my first dealings with CARDIFF MOTORRAD
Mike sorted the problem i was having with the GS running
like a dog,and spending time advicing myself on a few things
as this is my first 1150
Top guy :beerjug: ]
cheers Mike regards Mark
 
Just to bump this thread, I've had a new rear Tourance and new rear brake pads fitted by Mike recently, he cannot be beaten in terms of expertise and value for money IMHO!
