London KTM workshops

**Matt Roach** · #1 12 Jan 2006

Hi,

I have just arrived in London after the end of a long trip and want somewhere to do some work on my 640 Adv. in central London.

I have heard conflicting reports about the quality of Brackens. Does anyone have any views or advise me of the best KTM workshop in London?

Otherwise does anyone know of any workshops where I can do my own servicing and pay a small amount to use tools?

cheers

Try Colin Colins in Harrow. Sorry, cant remember their contact details.

Or, if you can travel a bit further, Jim Aim in Essex

I bought my KTM from Brackens in South London. They seemed pretty good for servicing and at that time were the UK agents for Touratech. www.bracken.co.uk

I don't think you can doubt the quality of Bracken, but some have the customer service. They are busy and are often booked up, and also overworked.

Jon the owner is a nice guy, but when you are dealing with the rest of the people, so many people (Laaandaaanars) come through their doors, you need to spend some time to get to know them first - then you will find a more personal service....

I called braken and thier price is way to high (£300) to replace the valve cover gasket and water pump seals. I have water getting into my oil. Do you know of a reasonable shop near London. I might just fix it myself.
