Bike service in Yorkshire (Near Wakefield)??

#1 Post by Irishness » Sat Jan 04, 2014 9:09 am

Morning all. So I want to know if any of you up here in Yorkshire know of a decent garage to service/give my bike a thorough look over.
I know of AP of course but they are a bit of a drive away (Which I will end up doing if I can't find anyone up here) It's nothing in particular needs looking at just want a trained eye to go over it all.

Any suggestions would be great.

Cheers
Taz

..... Suggest you meet up with a fellow forum member - there Are a few in Yorkshire

They can give you some insight

I would then book in at griffs


Let's face it, you wouldn't go to a nurse to get good advice on a problem with a Falco - you'd choose an Engineer or a mechanic...

I dare say there are places oop-north though also remember that AP does "on tour" servicing.
If not urgent and you can coincide with when Griff comes your way, that's always a good option.
