    Mr. Bean would be more appropriate.

    I'm adding my review of this workshop as what happened needs to be made public. Please find bellow my Google review:

    Had my bike in for valve clearance, ultra-sonic carburetors cleaning and balancing, fitting a new triple clamp and full exhaust. Went to collect bike and genuine parts are damaged and missing. Also I highly doubt the carbs were ultra-sonic cleaned so I was scammed out of 80 euro just for that. The missing genuine Honda fairing screws are on sale at Fowlers for 2,90 euro each and 3 were removed from the bike and replaced by used rusty ones. They didn't had the decency to tell me they had damaged the mirror and they didn't fit the supplied main jets so bike is running like ****e. Charging people for labour they didn't perform is FRAUD and a claim at the Small Claims Court was filed. The workshop counter claimed in the amount of 1000 euros for loss of income and to pay for expert witness in court even though this is not accounted for by the rules of the court. Perhaps they want to claim also an Uber and breakfast at Tiffany's?
    Update 3/7/2020: Upon settling my claim thru the Small Claims Court my bike was stolen from the backyard.

    *****

    I can only say I am surprised as I thought they would dispute my claim of 350e, they even made a counter-claim of 1000e for loss of income and to cover expert witness and at the last minute they changed their minds as to not waste the judge's time (their words).

    The bike was only taken after what I believe is an illegal disclosure of my address by the court and I'll seek to confirm this disclosure asap.

    Solid choice.
    If you are looking for €1000, I can tell you I don't have money. But what I do have are a very particular set of skills, skills I have acquired over a very long career, skills that make me a nightmare for people like you.
    I have access to the boards.ie motorcycle section.
    If you let my rvf go now, that'll be the end of it.

    Sorry to hear your bike was stolen.
    Did they offer to fix your bike? I find this hard to believe that any workshop would not offer to fix customers bike if they damaged it in some way?
    You 'highly doubt' the carbs were ultrasonic cleaned. How did you determine that? Did you see the carbs before and after?
    Were fairing screws missing when you left the bike there?
