Reasonable price?

Probably picking up the ZX6R on saturday morning but the bike is finished and ready today -

rough quote for Fork Seals and supply and fit brake pads was advised verbally as $400.00. Is that on the mark?

I did get a verbal quote prior to booking in the bike of $250 for seals, then add on brake pads (i think they will be goldfren)

Fork seals and both front and rear brake pads for $400 sounds ok to me. Not the most reasonable quote, but most bike shops would charge just that.

That was just front brakes. and confirmed on the phone just then the cost is $399.30.

I would've thought $400 for just pads is a bit exy. 2 hrs labour tops! $150 ( being generous depends on pads) for pads plus labour equals $300 tops I would have thought.
Unless they are doing complete fluid replacement etc but even then I would've thought 2 hrs labour would cover it.
Heck I can do front pads on mine easily within an hour and that's not what I do for coin.....

I think he still got the forks done, when he said its just the front pads, I'm thinking he's saying the front got done not the back??????
If so I think $400 is quite reasonable, of not then it's a bit exxy haha

I just had seals,new oil etc fitted in my zx9 track bike which set me back $250.00,lso included complete brake flush with motul high temp fluid and bike picked up and delivered.

Hi Octane in Thomastown

If ya wanna get technical
I just put new seals and oil put in my forks for $72.90...... And the bike didn't leave my garage
hehe, but nonetheless $250 for thats awesome, door to door motorcycle mechanic, now thats service

Fork seals and oil (he said it stunk like shit - it sure hasn't been replaced in the 4 years i've had the bike), front brake pads.

I need to find a good home job mechanic in Adelaide for these types of jobs.

Just came to my mind that the front has 2 sets of pads. So $400 is ok I guess. I had done the front fork, rear pads for about $350.
