Competent mechanic needed
Posted: Mon Aug 14, 2017 8:55 am
I'm looking for a reliable and competent mechanic to do some work on my NC35. I'm in the Wilmslow area of Cheshire and have tried two local mechanics who have both shown they're not as skilled as they claimed to be. One of them replaced a missing spacer (ie. he lost it) inside the rear wheel hub of my Yamaha with a piece of garden hose and half a dozen cheap washers! The other one left bits out when rebuilding a pair of forks (he reckoned they weren't needed 
) and put the new seals in at an angle so they leaked.
Basically I need some one to check over the gearbox. I can find 1, 2 and 3 without problem and neutral is easy but 4, 5 and 6 get progressively harder to engage
There's no slipping or jumping out of gear. (I've posted about this before and checked the clutch as suggested but with no luck).
So does anyone know a mechanic in my area who's worked on these bikes and know's what they're doing? Bear in mind I can't really get they bike to them (I don't want to risk making it worse) so it would need picking up.
I did ask Rick Oliver but he couldn't help.
Cheers.
CRM, RO said you lived in my vicinity and may have some suggestions. I did email you but maybe it went astray.
