Bloody great. Enrique speaks English and fixes motorbikes better than God.
And you can smoke in the shop.
Can't remember the address but if you go to Honda.cl, click on "concessionaries", you'll get a map of Chile. Click on Valdivia and you'll get address/phone no/email etc.
Anyway it's on the main road into town, on the left. (Unless you're coming from Niebla).

I would like to second the praise and recommendation of the ESR Motos crew -
* Enrique made time and space for me on the same day I called at the shop
* Mechanic Alejandro serviced my bike in such a meticulous and caring way, it was an absolute pleasure to watch
* Both went beyond the call of duty, checked the bike thoroughly, fixed bits and pieces when necessary, gave me a lot of good advice and the offer to contact them should I ever need help while in South America.
Top guys - Alejandro and Enrique with my bike in their workshop

And here is a map of the location.
¡Muchas gracias por toda su ayuda y amabilidad!

decent but a bit pricey
I visited yesterday for an oil change and to get the chain tightened, for convenience sake really. Prompt and efficient service done without waiting, guys are friendly.
Prices for parts are a bit high: I spotted the same oil filter in Valdivia center (after I visited) for 2,000CLP (3,500CLP in ESR); 10,000CLP for their best synthetic (7,500CLP in santiago for similar but arguably they had a superior brand). Maybe BYO parts if you can.
It was ~ 6,000CLP for work (20 min job).

Membership - help keep us going!
Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.
You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
