Switch Repair
« on: October 24, 2023, 07:01:22 PM »
I hope this is allowed...

While most of us have great STs to ride, and some have Goldwings or Can-Ams, I would guess that many of us also have project bikes of a more vintage nature, with all the problems that go with them.

A mate of mine who rides and restores/customises CX 500s is establishing himself a small business, working from home, repairing old motorcycle switch blocks. This is a shameless plug, unbeknown to him. He does do great work, and also does good work rebuilding Keihin Carbies.

Check it out.
