Help needed - bearings gone in engine of Honda Shadow 90

    The bearings went in my engine about 4 weeks ago. Just before this I had the bike in with JP Motorcycles and he mentioned that they weren't far from going, so he got it right.

    I called him back and asked if he could fix it to which he replied that it wouldn't be worth his time as it's a lot of work, which I was surprised with. Anyway, I found Capitol Motorcycles in Rathgar (a Honda dealer) who agreed to fix it. I had the bike collected and dropped to their workshop and all seemed fine, except that today I get a call to say that they're closing down!! All the lads are being made redundant, which sucks for them, so my bike can't be fixed by them.

    So, I'm looking for a bike shop that will repair this problem. It's going to cost me around €500 and I need to have the bike collected and dropped as it won't run (which is another €45) so I'd like to get it done either today or tomorrow.

    Can anyone recommend another Honda dealer in Dublin? I will try the New Gem in Ranelagh as I've been there before, but the last bit of work they did was very dodgy and nearly caused a blowout on my rear tyre so I'd be a little nervous about going back to them.

    Cheers.
