Servicing Manchester area

Hi all. Just bought a RR7 privately, and would like your advice and recommendations for service and repair in the Manchester area.
A good mobile guy would be fine also, as I have a decent workshop for him to use.
Mainly looking for a trustworthy place or person that I can have confidence in.
Thanks, Colin

 

Hunts on kingsway.

 

Yep as above

Hunts if your close to them, or if you are near bolton way. Russ at Bolton Motorcycle Workshop is a sound and trusted option.

Thanks very much for your replies.
I had visited Hunts during my search for a bike and was a little disappointed with their reaction when I mentioned the experiences of many with eC-ABS equipped bikes. The salesperson told me it was all from a long time ago and a storm in a teacup.
While I accept people can be inclined to exaggerate (me included), I do not believe they are making it up.
That experience put me off, somewhat.

So, the bike is going straight to Bolton Workshop to be gone through.

 

Good choice there.

 

I recently purchased a bike from hunts and they kept delaying me from picking the bike up. I had to wait nearly 2 weeks they never phoned me back. I ended up phoning twice a day, i am still waiting on the pillion seat which they couldnt find. Also i have to send the service book back as they didnt stamp it. Good bike but poor customer service i think

 

I collected the bike from Bolton Motorcycle Workshop yesterday and have to say I'm very impressed with the work done.
Russ is a decent man and I'd confirm them as an honest place.

 

Mines booked in on the 24th and I was impressed when I called in out of the blue to book.

 

I bought a new 600 from Hunts & after 1st service checked oil & way over full!! My mechanic mate drained it for me....I rang them & got bullshit! Usual story with bigger businesses.....IMHO if you can find a small local independent bike garage with a good rep then take your business there!

 

I doubt they will disappoint.
I gave them an open cheque to go through my bike from front to back.
They gave it a very thorough service, straightened bits an elderly previous owner had damaged and put a new tyre on.
No attempt to make work for themselves and treated me like I'd bought the bike from them.

 

Exactly. I live in Urmston so getting to Belmont is a bit of a fag but I'd not even consider Hunts for anything.
Took me nearly 3hrs on the bus but worth the bother.

 

I bought my blade brand new in 2009 from Suttons in Tamworth, cheaper than a 2nd hand one in Hunts. And they delivered free to Goole.
NB, the bikes were the same colour and model. Weird or what!

 

I only live down the road from Belmont in Kearsley, give me a shout next time you're taking your bike in and if i'm off work i'll pick you up.

 

Hey that's really kind thanks.
Colin.
