Can anyone recommend a reliable tech or mechanic in the Manchester area who does KTM's? Mine will need a major service soon plus I need to do a bit of electrical work (heated grips, phone charger and GPS power take offs) - normally I'd do it myself but I am renting a place for 12 months without a ga...

I am ready to be proven wrong... 1. Disclaimers. You are unable in the UK to waive your rights.

Get more dealers (smaller ones?) in town centres. Bikes are not cars and following them along the out of town 'mega' store model of show rooms sucks.

Be warned the dry bags melt when exposed to insect spray ( to be fair most thin Sea To Summit type dry bags will) Cheers D

Oh, bike is 990 Adv

Thanks in advance for your thoughts
