Motorbike Repair Shops, La Paz
 

Hi,

After spending a month in La Paz I was able to narrow down the best area to take any type of bike for any type of repair. (I'm on a KLR 650)

Calle Landaeta is full of auto repair shops and 2 motorbike repair shops which both stock and repair big bore bikes from overseas.

The first shop is located in-front of the stadium where the road splits to Calle Kantuta.The second shop is a little higher up the hill.

The reason I went to the effort to find these places is because I had the most terrible experience at a previously recommended repairer in La Paz, Nosiglia Honda. The new manager Javier is a dirty lying .......

He strong armed his mechanics to lie to me. Thing is I speak Spanish and his mechanics had already told me the truth.

I've written more in the following post, just scroll down a bit and you'll see. (http://www.horizonsunlimited.com/hub...-bolivia-19580)

I would never even consider going there, I don't like people who lie to me, I don't like the way he treats his mechanics and going there left me in a worse situation then when I arrived.

The road I've now pointed you to is full of friendly repair shops and Bolivian prices.

Good Luck, Ash

Thanks for this info. Did you have any experiencing buying/installing wheel bearings in La Paz? I'll go to these streets and hope I can find what I need.
