Ho do you judge your' dealer, by the mechanic or the shop?

I blame the shop, mechanics are just following orders.

Greetings earth bikers,

Newbie here, aka AbWill. Nice to meet you all. Am a bike mechanic somewhere in Devon. People who know me may know who I am but people who don't won't I spose. Will welcome some questions about bikes and if I can help I will, but don't expect too much. Bikes all day and bikes at home doesn't mix if I'm on the spirits so be warned!!!!

Apart from that , work somewhere in Exeter and live nearby, have a beautiful classic ZXR750 K model (the one with flat slides and close ratio box).
WTF? Me? Never...Well, .... Maybe, but ME?
