I refer the Honourable Gentleman to the reply I gave earlier. Not everyone does what they should... :\
An example is to do a compression check rather than actually measure the shim tolerances.... "if the compression is good then they must be ok..."
We usually take 6 or 7 hours to do a major on an in line 4 water cooled bike - we usually only charge for around 5.....
BUT we do tackle everything (coolant and brake fluid change as well as shims and Exup etc) and we usually take photo's of the before and after bits as we work through it.
People do trust us but it is always good to show them the state their bike was in before we fixed it. Tends to justify the bill.... :eek
Does slow up things though, we have a Speedmaster up on our bench since Saturday now as we are waiting on an inlet shim. They had one but not the two we needed. Customer is ok but we could do with the bench! :rolleyes
