Hey Carl & Barry,
 
I lived in the UK for about two & a half years in the mid 90's and rode a GSX600F for about 18 months. I was frustrated for a long time trying to find a mechanic that seemed able/willing to tune the thing to run as intended by the manufacturer.
 
I moved to Cranleigh, Surrey and was fortunate to discover a bike shop called FCL about 2 minutes walk from where I lived. The chief mechanic, Phil, was the best motorcycle mechanic I have ever known. He wouldnt give the bike back to me unless it was in a state that he was happy to ride it. 
 
Who knows if they are still there. I've been back in Australia for almost ten years and its a  sad thing that I've only recently found a motorcycle mechanic that gives the same service, advice and attention to detail.
 
Cheers,
Brett
Sydney.

Chris - that's interesting, I used to occasionally use a dealer calling himself 
UK#1 when I worked in north Surrey - could it possibly be one and the same? I'm 
not sure I understand why you accepted it back after the service with the 
problem unsolved? Surely they're obliged to give you the bike back running 
right? So I'd take it straight back and make them sort it out. And make sure 
they tell you what the fix was when they find it, so poor sods like me can 
benefit too.

I mainly used to use Carl Rosner in Croydon, which can't be too far from you. He 
was #1 for several years I think. Although I've had some petty gripes with him 
on the whole he's very good, and will generally bend over backwards to sort out 
problems. Now I'm in the SW I use a well-known Bristol dealer, but I do miss 
Carl's service. So if #1 doesn't fill you with confidence try Carl. 

Barry
