A GOOD Mechanic?

[chiboyracer]

Does anyone know of a good/great mechanic who is willing to take on a very sick NC30. prefably someone who knows a vfr better than his/her own mother and doesnt charge the earth/or try to make a quick handfull of readies.
I realize that people have to make a living but i dont want to take it to a place where they think it might be this or that and keep charging me for parts that wernt needed. sorry if i sound cheep but parts like cdi units are not cheap, but if i realy need one then OK. if anyone can help i would be very gratefull, i am based on the south coast but am prepared to travel a reasonable distance. thanks , lets hope this year it will see the road.( now five years of sitting collecting dust)

You can do it.. It is easy.

However, we've no idea whjere you are based...so start there.

For me..change the plugs, get a fresh battery, fresh fuel adn make suree the carbs are OK.

All well within any persons skill level

Get a haynes and tackle it yourself, will save you loads of money and is very rewarding knowing the work is all done by yourself. Its not that hard either 2 years ago i had very limited experience with these bikes and now i am confident enough to tackle just about anything. If you just want to ride the bike and let somebody else do the mechanics a 20 year old 400 isnt the way to go, riding these machines is only half the experience imo.

Only had my NC30 6 months and if I'm not able to ride it (english summers are wonderful aren't they?) I want to be taking it apart and cleaning and tricking it out!

If only I won the lottery, £3000 would do......

But everything that's been done to my bike in my ownership has been done by me with the help of the wonderful people on here, and I had no mechanical experience at all!
