Does anyone know of a BMW bike specialist in the North who does servicing and other repairs. I can do most things myself but would like someone to call upon if its too much for me to handle.

Nothing fancy. Just some countryside. Had Kent in mind but don't really mind as long as it's not a long ride away from London. And due to recent threads on the subject I would like to make myserlf clear: NOTHING MORE THEN RIDING A MOTORCYCLE... Amir Abiri

Hi guys, I have just noticed that the front tyre on my GS is due for replacement - I thought that the backs went first, but maybe I have the first front wheel drive GS :scratch: I am having the bike serviced on Wednesday (12,000 since Mid march) so I have the option I guess of having it done...
