  1. 5 hours to change the exhaust gaskets..?
     
  2. Yep, well pleased :D

    figaro, thought about naming and shaming the garage and leaving a few negative reviews as all his labour costs are greedy and he doesn't mention things took a lot longer than expected when calling to get paid! His work is to a good standard afaik and he'll only rip people off once (or twice if like me you were desperate to get something fixed quickly).
     
  3. If it was on a Honda V4 I could understand, but I, as a complete amateur, can strip a Multistrada's entire exhaust system from the bike and seperate it into it's components in under ten minutes. More like five minutes.
     
  4. Unless the 3 allen bolts holding the front pipe on the cat are corroded and seized solid.
     
  5. The point is it don't take 5 hours to replace 2 gaskets.
     
  6. Agreed, that's serious piss taking. Unless you are working at BL in the 70s during a time and motion study.
