Big Bike Service in Hua Hin

Post by Jools »

Hi All,
I have looked through all the motoring section and have not seen any recent posts relating to where to get a big bike serviced reliably, without all the parts being changed

I bought a Honda Steed 400 in August and have used 3 different workshops so far to find that parts that were in good order have been changed for poorer quality parts. Last place has changed the rear wheel from a good condition wheel to a rusting rim!!

Is there anywhere in Hua Hin I can get the bike serviced in the knowledge I will get the same bike back in better running condition?

Thank you for any reasonable suggestions.

J Pompey Til I Die!!!

I can't help with suggesting where you can get your bike serviced reliably, but in the instance where they swapped your good wheel for a rusty one, did you not go back and get them to change it back to the good wheel - I certainly would have done so?

Difficult as the switch was only obvious a few weeks later. That was when the rust started to come through.
