More work

Feb 2007 To Aug 2007

I spent around 20K to get the bike done up by a mech in Sion (Akram). Wouldn't recommend him to anyone again. It was a complete nightmare dealing with him.

Mar 2008
This year got the block re-bored by Chotubhai in Feb-March. Also had the formalities of the biking fitness done. Chotubhai ran up a bill of 4K approx.

Jul 2008
Bike wouldn't start. Called up Samad and then went to his garage. Reached his garage at around 11 AM and had to wait till 3 PM before he was free to leave with me to get my bike started. Samad got the bike started and managed to con(vince) me into putting lock where the petrol leaves the tank and flow to the carb. I had asked him to put in a side carrier and rear carrier as well. He ran up a bill of 4K approx.

Oct 2008
Today (4th Oct '08), took my bike to Samads garage and discovered a lot more work needed to be done. Such as:
The front and rear wheel needs to be throughed
The following need to be replaced: 3 gear wheels, 2 ball bearings, the odometer, the oil seal and the clutch plates.

This last piece of work was a shoddy job - as the wheels wobbled and all-ah-bicks wouldnt budge to try to rectify the problem.
