Looking for a GOOD machanic in Bangkok

Huston we have a problem!
Hi my name is cuan I'm riding my Africa Twin from South Africa to Sydney and I've recently found out that the bearing on the front sproket saft is about to go. I'm in India at the moment but I recon I can make it to Bangkok. Where I will have to repair it. To do this one need to split the motor.
So I'm looking for a GOOD Honda machanic in bangkok that knows big bikes and can get all the parts?

Please mail me at cuan_mulcahy@hotmail.com
My web page address is www.cuanstravels.com

If you reckon it's going to go, why don't you find a good mechanic in India and get it done while the bike's still running? There are lots of good mechanics in India, and you should be able to get a decent bearing.

Probably you have solved the problem already but for future requests:

Dynamic Motors
Mr Yongyut
Wisut Kasat Rd. 253
(next to Bangkok Bank)
Ph: 02 282 99 99
Bangkok

This place is about 3 roads (parallel) north from Khao San Rd (Banglampoo district), the main Backpacker Area.
He deals with BMW but can help for all brands.
