I am looking for a quick and cheap way to replace the steering head bearings on my Fazer.
I already have the parts, as I was going to do it myself, but decided I don't want to spend a whole day doing it due to lack of proper experience/tools.

Can anyone recommend a garage/mechanic that can do that around Swindon?
How much should I expect to pay?

Thanks.

Thanks Neil, can you send me their contact details? Private message, maybe they don't want their details on an open forum.
