Motorcycle Mechanic
Hello fellow motorcycle enthusiasts,
I am looking for sugeetions for a good, reliable, honest mechanic. I used DC Butlers for a few years, until they moved. I was using Hertford Motorcycle Centre for a bit, but they have disapeared. I'm trying to find someone within 10 miles of home, which is Hertford town centre. Let me know who you guys use and how they treat you and your machines.
I'll be going to Predator Motorsports in Welwyn for an oil change in a couple of days, closest I found. If they are good for that I will consider them for my MOT service next month. I have a 2000 Fazer 600, so I'm not to keen on the idea of going to the BMW place in town.
Thanks for any help,[8D]

I am sure that there isn't a certified one in Hertford. Have you tried contacting DC Butlers in Bishop's Stortford, same people, just a different place?
They are based on the Twyford Industrial Estate, just off approach road from Sawbridgeworth.

Thanks. Not yet, just looking for someone closer. I know Bishop Stortford is not that far, I'm just seeing what else is around and who is recomended.

Mark Davall is based in Harlow. He used to work for Bob Hill many years ago. He is thorough and honest, and my husband uses him for all sorts of bike related things.

When I lived in the UK (1990's) I used Saunders of Knebworth and I see that they are still there,

Thanks. Despite spelling I think this may be 2mentions for the guy in Harlow. Makes him the front runner.
