Any suggestions for somewhere decent in the South East. I really should get my valve clearances checked. I'm in Farnborough Hampshire.

Just press on the link when says oops
I used them and was a lot cheaper than the other aprilia dealer in Chatham.
Not an expert on bikes but they were pretty good and friendly even got a shiver for the day

Don't know if people are aware, but Griff of Aprilia Performance fame is willing to run a mobile Aprilia servicing service.
If there are a few of you in one area that can combine, then that helps to keep costs in check.
Griff is based in Tamworth and I know he's gone to Newcastle to do this and I think the West Country too.
Get a few of you together and talk him into a suspension setup training session on the end of it.

two points regarding the dealer at Chatham
1. my bike had its first annual service there(2001),had a dreaded call stating a engine mounting bolt had sheared and was not there fault and Aprilia said it was not covered.
Cost me around £600 as the Lump had to come .
2. Was going to use them again as nearest dealer and that was 8 years ago but they quoted me around £80 more than East Grinstead.

I'd recommend Bikersworld too - John, the owner, knows his stuff. I bought my Falco there back in '03 and I've always taken it there for servicing. Sure, it's a fair way to go (for me - I'm near Andover) but I think it's worth the trip - their pricing seems fair (for a main dealer) and I've always had good service from them...
