Looking for a good mech

Looking into gettin my zx2r serviced soon, just wondering if you guys know of any body around my area that wont take me for a ride. I live in ELtham in Melbourne its NE

Karen recently had hers done at Race replica and is happy with the service, they're in Brooklyn so not close, shitloads closer than Brighton Kwaka or Mornington though.

Suggest (in case you were thinking about it) you give Cosway and Floyd parkes a wide berth as far as servicing goes.

I actually recommended Race Replica to Karen. I am the fussiest person ever when it comes my bike and only trust Rhys to touch it. Cosways are in the city and thats where i bought the 12.. Wont say anything else.

Mate ppl here will give recommendations till they come out of their arse but honestly, if you're that friggin lazy you can't type Mick Hone into whitepages.com.au and get the number yourself then you probably should be catching the bus or something.

Might seem a bit harsh but ffs this is the issue I have with my flatmate currently, he does fuck all for himself...

Here endeth the rant.

maybe redwing honda in heidelberg? i know of a happy customer or two there, tho ive heard people bitch about not getting good prices on oil or jackets


other than that, i dont beleive there is any such thing as a "good mechanic"

promoto dave is awesome

promoto dave is no longer at promoto

Tip one dont take it to greensbourough motor cycles even though race replica is a fair way away they will give you a loan bike

promoto dave is no longer at promoto

I found that out the hard way... spent ages trying to get a hold of him...

does anyone know where he went to? I thought he was buying the shop....

yep - i thought he was still there too - but alas, dunno where he has gone

no good.

is the shop still there or did it close down
