Mechanic Dublin

    Looking to find a good mechanic as I have a issue with a bike.

    I was riding along a while ago and came back and found one of the crash bobbins missing. It appears who ever put it in, they cross threaded the engine mount bolt hole and it appears the threads are fairly knackered. I'd like to know if anyone could suggest a competent mechanic that could Install a helicoil into it. I tried re tapping (m12 fine pitch 1.25) it but its still not great. When I found the issue I put a standard pitch m12 into it unknowing that it was fine pitchh probably making it worse. Its holding fine but I would like to put it right.

    Any ideas welcome.

    Cheers

    If you're in Rathmines go to Scott's in Harold's Cross, or GEM in Donnybrook, they're probably the closest. Also Moto Pitstop in Rathgar.
