Ecuador, Cuenca. Great Mecahnic.

Hola HU Community,

I can recommend a great mechanic shop in Cuenca, Ecuador.

I had an accident in northern Peru, got the bike rideable at a small mechanic shop there but needed more work when I got to Cuenca. I got an excellent carb-clean, new spark-plug, new indicator, new switch-box for the indicators and headlights, new horn, new windscreen, new fuel filter and I had a new license plate made up. The switch-box and windscreen are not original (I'm riding a KLR 650), but the mechanics sourced the bits from other bikes and made it all work sweet. I paid $77 USD all up.

The mechanics there regularly service larger bikes, in the yard there was another KLR and heaps of moto-cross types. Can't remember the owner's name sorry, but it's a family affair and his wife handles the accounts. No English, but they're patient with your crap Spanish. The business card says they handle all bike types.
