    I don't know RHD, I use Townsville Custom Cycles, not cheap but first class service and have never had any problems. I know peolpe who have used a De###r here in Townsville and have had to take there bike back many times as the problem wasn't fixed, I have not had that problem..

    Keep away from Townsville Custom Cycles, - the only thing that keeps him afloat is the "AJ's", I've never met anyone who could afford to have anything fixed there - Oh plus the tow truck to take it a bit down the road to get it fixed

    Ten years or so ago I was using Custom Cycles and back then they were good. Had a parts guy called Peter, and he knew his shit.

    Now the place resembles a hang out for the Saturday morning doctors and lawyers sipping their Latte's and talking about which next piece of bolt on chrome their going to buy.

    RHD are great guys and girls (workshop manager is a sheila). Bruce the owner has been around for a long time and knows the ins and outs of a ducks arse when it comes to harleys, british and Euro bikes.

    Honest, friendly and very very knowledgable bike enthusiasts.

     

    Cheers
