Repairs in South East London?
Hi,
I have an NC30 94' and I'm having problems starting the bike which has now happened for the second time. The bike starts fine but then seems to lose power and simply die after 5 minutes or so. I had the battery changed 2 months ago when I bought the bike and then a couple of weeks ago by my breakdown guy as he reckoned I had a faulty battery as the volts were running at 12.5. Now after looking into it I'm guessing it could be something to do with the rectifier a common problem I'm hearing from the forums??
I'm not familiar with the service centres around my way and wondered if anybody could recommend somewhere I could go get it looked at?
I'm in south east london in greenwich if anyone knows anywhere around my area or london? I use it daily for my commute in central London so really want it back on the road asap!
Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Save yourself the money and sort it yourself - it is easy
Reg rec issues are common and to check which part is failing is not a problem.....
rather that than spend £35+ an hour at a garage...
