Re: Recommended - UK

I have to declare a personal interest - but no personal financial gain with this one.

RAMSHOX ............. we're getting more and more into the speciality ranges now. There's a large variety of shox making their way into the "production" ranges now - Triumph, Norton, Specials, B.S.A. ........... as well as the popular Japanese twinshock stuff, including classics like the RE5 with offset mountings.

Two powder coaters I have used for some time.

Blackpole Powder Coating [ www.blackpolepowdercoatings.co.uk. ] in Worcester [ Midlands ]


and

Washford Finishings [ www.washfordfinishings.co.uk ] in Reddditch.

both run by the same group - good honest work.

BTW - it wasn't these peeps who screwed up the colour on my Flat Tracker - we were trying a new "highly recommended" company .....right.

Stan Leather in East London is a top bloke. Made up a seat for me with a pan I gave him in about a week, charged £60: https://www.facebook.com/stan.leather

This bloke I found on eBay made me up a custom sized seat hoop - great service. Based up north I think: http://www.ebay.co.uk/usr/oneoffweldingandengineering?_trksid=p2047675.l2559

My friend Badger runs 'Hardknocks Speed Shop', near Bicester, Oxfordshire. He can do any fabrication you'd like. He's doing a manifold for Red Victor 3 over the next few months. specialty is exhausts, but can do most things.

Nottingham Platers.... I dropped a few parts off for chrome plating and they turned them around for next day. Great service and excellent quality.

Stainless fasteners by Will Horgan at http://www.stainlessclassics.co.uk/

I bought a load of stuff from him years ago and it's still as good as new. He will make one-offs, but has loads of stock nuts, bolts, studs, nuts, screws in stock. More for your Classic bike, but Will is still providing quality service and attends most events.
