Opie Oils deliver and you get a UKGSER discount as well. Im only in Okehampton in Devon and quite often go to cornwall so theres no problem showing you how to service the bike. Its easy to do the valves, throttle body balance and oils etc.

Thanks Mike,
if your ever in the Hayle area give me a shout - i would love to learn how to do the valves etc. I used to work next door to opie oils in Redruth do you suggest this the best place to get the fluids?

Many Thanks

Kevin

How to service a motorcycle

1: Stand behind motorcycle
2: Undo trouser belt, drop trousers & underpants.
3:Look for Exhaust pipe exit. This is your entry point.
4:A fluid service is up to the imagination.

P.S. In Newry around 10 years ago, a sex xhop opend in Railway Avenue
The window display was a plastic inflatable sheep at 40 pounds.
Shop closed after 3 months, because the owner claimed, you could buy a real one for 10 pounds.
