Motorcycle Workshop
Bracken were one of our first sponsor's,
without who's help we would not have the
bikes in such great shape today.
Originally
they agreed to get us discounted Touratech
equipment, however, they have provided so
much more in the shape of advice and overlanding
experience into the bargain.
A
massive thank you has to go to John "BUNNY"
Hill, at Bracken, also known as Mr. Touratech.
Apart from being a walking encyclopedia
of biking information, he's become a friend
and someone's opinion, both Lisa and I have
come to trust.
Lisa
and I had to place a degree of trust in
the dealership, to guide us as to the most
appropriate modifications we would need
to make to the bikes. OK, actually it was
me who needed the advice, bearing in mind
that I was suffering from a biker affliction
known as "tricky spendy modification-itus".
Symptoms include the overwhelming need to
purchase every accessory in sight. The accessory
frenzy is justified by the rider because.."that
could be really useful, maybe.. and it looks
good"
John
did a great job on pi"*ing on my bonfire
whenever these symptoms surfaced and ensured
the mod's we made were genuine ones that
we would benefit from. |

The
workshop at Bracken also did a great job
in tuning my R1100gs and sorting out the
39 litre tank on Lisa's F650GS. Paul Richetts
also deserves a thank you. Not only for
the expertise he extolled upon our bikes,
but also for putting up with all my incessant
questions of..."why, how long, how
much torque, which oil and why does that
happen"?
Bracken
stock a range of bikes, mostly of the adventure
variety, including GS's, KTM's and supermoto's.
If you're planning any kind of trip, speak
to these guys. The best lessons learned
are at someone else's expense.
