First one had a jump guard, as does the second one.

And if the second opinion says that I don't need one what do I do then? Do I get a third opinion? Is a two to one ratio enough to base such a serious decision on? Why arn't they sure I need or don't need a transplant? Should I see a fourth, firth, tenth or thirty third doctor? Does this mean that I'm going to die?
Come on help me out here, or should I just ignore your stupid little comment? I know the answer to that already, of course.  8)

If a mechanic told me I needed a new light bulb I'd let him fit one but I would want to see the old one.

If a mechanic told me I needed a new engine I would leave immediately; have these guys never heard of taking it apart and finding what's broken.

New light bulbs I can afford, new engines I can't!

The noise coincides with one cylinder to me

I think the days of mechanics stripping and rebuilding engines have long gone ..

Best regards.  Mick

I dunno, I think there are still good garages... just I get coddled by BMW and run a bike under warranty so never have to find one!

That fella down bumpkin country that appears on 44teeth videos occasionally seems an example of a proper place.

Even better regards. Matt :p

JHS Racing. Been there many times and they are definitely a proper place.
