Big thanks to Lates
Huge thanks to Leighton and his mate Pete for doing my belts and a major service today, as well as fitting me a black coolant tank, getting my dodgy wheel nuts off, and fitting my tyre protectors. Two lovely gents, great work, and in a super fast time.

Good stuff Dawn, you’ll not have that nagging doubt about the belts now 👍

Yes it was worrying! And they weren't genuine ones that came off. It had been lined up with Tipex and was'nt correct as well. Running sweet now and Leighton and Pete are lovely. Thank for recommending them Andy! ☺

Don't think you'd go wrong with Lates, only used them once for a spare key, but both great guys and nothing seems too much trouble for them. Well recommended

Yes they did look a bit knacked when I turned up at 3 for them to do both rear springs and front flexys.
I have been using the guys since I had my 1st 75 way back in 2004. They are fantastic mechanics and know the 75 and ZT inside out. I would urge anyone needing belts done to travel to them for the service. Stubs Last edited by STUBIE; 15th June 2019 at 19:03.. |

Leighton said you were going. He did some front to back brake pipes in between! |

When they did my belts etc. years ago they did them outside on the grass while we played with the dog.
Never seen two people work so well together. Terry |
