Over the last six months,I've serviced quite a few 1100GS and 1150GS bikes for people,and everyone has asked why I don't advertise it as another service I can offer as well as the fabrication side of business,so,here it is,and what I can offer you.
Basically,if you want to service your bike,but you haven't got the confidence to try it yourself,give me a ring, sort out a time that suits you,even Sundays if you want,and we'll service your bike together in my workshop. You can get your own service kit and oil,or I can supply it. Also, if you have anything to fit to your bike, bring it along and we'll fit it at the same time.
Clutch changes are the same,make an appointment and we can do it between us and you can see exactly what is being done to your bike.
I'm planning on offering throttle body refurishments as well,to get rid of the rattle when they get worn.Ride in and ride out a few hours later with rebuilt throttle bodies. I have a guinea pig coming in to see if all the tooling I have made works,and if it does,then I'll do it by return post if you can't turn up in person.
Also,welding stainless and aluminium, and if you need a spacer making, I can machine one of those up for you at the same time.Got a stripped thread,bring it to me and I'll show you how to helicoil it. In fact, if you have something in your mind that you fancy making, but don't know where to start,then give me a call and we'll have a go at it.
Now the crunch,money. I haven't worked out a price for the throttle body rebuilds yet, but expect around £85 for one side and £140 for both sides. Everything else,a flat charge of £30 per hour applies,and materials and parts on top of that.
Of course, if anyone just wants to drop their bike off with a list of things to do,then you're more than welcome to do that as well.
My workshop is just south of Chester on the A41 and nice and easy to find.
If you think there is anything I can help you with, just give me a call to have a chat about it on 01829 771040. If I'm not there, just leave a message and I'll get back to you.
Thanks one and all
