    bad news

    [h=2]HOURIBLE MECHANICS[/h]
    Dear fellow bikers

    this warning concerns all rides in South Africa, Gauteng province, Centurion area

    howsit guys bought my blackbird from dis so called deals in centurion called "Moto Psycho bikes and Service center". it is the 1997 model, beautiful bike by the way(cant unload pics). dis bike has been nothing but problems from day 1. let me example:
    first week the carbs setting was off tune; over fueling, super bad fuel consumption(130kms on a full tank) which they told me it was the way the bike normally run but luck for me a found dis super helpful forum and also with the help of my good friend(Whom was a 600cc superbike racer)
    returned the bike the 2days later, told them that the bike wasn't right.
    to sum up the story, the carbs needed work, the air filter was old, the spark plugs old 3 and 4 dead

    i spent about 4 months returning the bike almost every 2 weeks, till i decided it was enough so i run a check through the whole bike @ HONDA MENYLN where the guys working there told me those so called mechanics had been replacing my spark plugs with old second hand ones( the reason my bike was always in -+ every second week). AND they didnt bother replacing the air filter that had passed its time

    I am currently building a case against dis company as i have proof from HONDA MENYLN to proceed
    MORAL OF THE STORY IS " PLEASE AVOID DOING BUSINESS OR SERVICING YOUR BELOVED BIKES WITH DIS PARTY, THEY ARE CROOKED, AND LEAVE OF SHORT CUTTING CLIENTS"
