My bobbin snapped off in my turn 1 excursion, does any one know of a place I can go to that is open on weekend to have a new bung welded on?

there was a place near my mums (location of bike) but he doesn't do weekends & taking a day off for such a small thing shits me.


also flat pick up stands suck a bag of dicks, the bike fell off while on the headstand (no front wheel) and I had to make a ratchet strap rig with a ladder to pick it up again

Cheers,
Andy

Often on Saturday, but not always. You need to call first. They also probably won't do it on the spot.

will try the guy in Alexandria first, need to organise a tow vehicle for my trailer, my brother blowing my van up is proving to be inconvenient

Michael Cook at Castle Hill Motorcycles does a good job at a good price.
