Bike Mechanic at Castle Hill or Blacktown

Postby Paulie » Sun May 03, 2009 8:30 pm

Hey All,

Big is really buggin me now-just need it fixed. Im in Blacktown area. Anyone know a good bike mechanic who's preferably not too expensive?

I have heard a few good things about Castle Hill motorcyles on Victoria Avenue?

Also noted yesterday there is a bike mechanic on 3rd Ave Blacktown... anyone dealt with any of these ??

(I am trying to get to the bottom of my fuel issue as per previous thread)

Thank you! :D

I've heard (not experienced) good things about Castle Hill Motorcycles too from a good mate who roused on me for buying from another local shop instead of him.

I tried to call him the other day to see if he had the battery for my bike, and his answering machine says something like "I'm either working on a bike or going on a test ride" - you don't hear that kind of honesty very often. :kuda:

Tim that is true ... he puts the AM on when he is really busy & needs to concentrate on the job... he usually does not leave it on for long, if you get the AM Just try back in 15 min ;)

Not quite Blacktown but I take my ZXR to Kelens at Penriff. They are one of the best priced for labour and Ken does a very good job.

I can recommend Castle Hill motorcycles, from personal experience. Nice blokes, seem to know their stuff.My mate who also has a ZZR1100 put me onto them, he's happy with them too. :D
