Stripped holes and shock builds. Engineering company

Found an engineering place to fit a Time-Sert (harder version of helicoil apparently) for £20 in the stripped-out oil drain plug hole
In case anyone lives in this region, Allbike Engineering in Greenwich were the chaps who dug me out of the badly stripped hole They also do shock/fork servicing/rebuilds

While I'm on the subject, they were also very helpful when I changed my sidestand over. The spring was missing so popped into the workshop and they let me have an old spring, loan of a vice and blowtorch and let me fix it up to the right size. Can't remember now but I'm pretty sure they didn't charge me either!
Nice chaps
