CL Mechanic, not a good thing?
« on: August 24, 2014, 11:08:58 AM »
I would shy away myself. If I don't feel confident in doing the work I would find a way to get the bike to someone who can. At least someone with insurance. Owner of bike had the minimum, Mechanic has none.

This topic is being discussed in the MV Agusta forums. To make an outline the guy was not close to a MV Agusta dealer. At any rate any Shop would have been a better outcome than this.

Work was done in the fuel tank area as well as the oil system. You can see the outcome.

It's currently in the Legal system.

Wholly crap! Why would anyone allow a non-credited/bonded/insured mechanic work on a high end bike????????   :o

Is there anything more fun than riding? They are between your legs and are quiet when you turn them off.
