I had left it late and only had 2 days before I needed to get my bike serviced. After many calls to motorcycle mechanics who were either fully booked or simply didn't return my calls, I was able to secure a booking with Peter Stevens in Geelong. They were very professional on the phone and even more in person. You really did feel like they wanted your work and it was a pleasure to do it. They kept my helmet and gloves safe so i was free to roam the Geelong CBD (about a 10 min walk away) and they called me as soon as the service was complete which was almost exactly how long they said it would take (3hrs).

After experience with dealerships who treat you like servicing your bike is an inconvenience, it was great to find somewhere who treated me like a valued customer and treated my bike the same they would a much more expensive machine. When i dropped it off the mechanic explained to me point by point what would happen in the service and then again went over it at the end to show what they did do.

I am DEFINITELY making the ride back down there from Melbourne when my 12,000k service is up.

Approximate cost: $400
