Looking for reliable mechanic

[old son]

Thanks for your replies. I spoke to the guy in Gorozzo (now Sondel) and he said he didn't think it worth checking unless the bike was running rough??? Sounds like 3 hours work to check then another 2 hours to adjust if necessary. He didnt think I would notice any difference. I seem to have one tappet that is ticking for the first 20 seconds or so after first start up. Other than that it seems to be running OK. Now on 55k miles.
