So far I've done everything but change the tyres!! I went for 3rd option, I would take it to a garage if i was totally stumped!! Touch wood that hasn't happened yet!!

Her coke looks as bad as her !
3rd one, do most service/repairs myself, only ever taken bikes back to garage if under warranty (not had one from dealer in a while) I did start out as a car mechanic so it helps, but if you can read a manual and use a torque wrench most repairs/servicing are easy to do

3rd one.
I do all the oil changes, valve clearances etc myself, and if theres summat i cant do i just get my dad to have a look
Garages rip ur arms and legs off so its pointless!

If it's broke spray it with WD40, if it's still broke spray it again and leave it over night, if it's still broke, bin it.

Re: Do you do your own servicing?
Apart from the Honing ( cheers zimm ) and MOT and tyres i do everything myself. from light bulbs to complete nut and bolt strip downs. too tight to pay some spanner monkey to f*** my bike up when i can do it for free

Re: Do you do your own servicing?
Exactly mate
Plus theres nothing better than throwing spanners round the garage like a tornado when u've fecked a job up and spend 4 hours trying to fix the problem that only took 5 minutes to do in the first place :p
