Hi,
Would anyone be able to tell me what I should be paying (labour time) a motorcycle dealer to remove wheel and repair a puncture? (Nail through central part of back wheel of Fazer 600)
Thanks
think i paid £12 last time.
go to a motorcycle tyre place rather than a motorbike shop.
where you based?
+1 they’ll be much cheaper, and the service will be faster
as already said between £10.00 - £15.00 sounds about right to me.
Cheers for replies
Not sure how to tackle this one
Repair was done couple o weeks ago by family run main dealer I bought bike from, fairly recently. I phoned them just before they closed one eve and they said they could slot my bike between their others in the workshop if I came in the next morning (nail lodged but tyre not loosing air)
Cost was 45 +Vat. They seemed quite full with bikes they were working on, that morning.
Realise this is a simple job, but don’t have the experience or facilities to DIY.
Based near Cricklewood
Where do you go to get that kind of price?
SRS in Hammersmith charged me £35 to plug a rear tire 
Cheers guys for info
I’ve continued this with a new topic/question
Same problem for me, £20 at Essential Rubber. Job done !
fwr £17.50 top job
Garret, as said a tyre place, universal in union st se1 £12
watlings much the same.
though i do take my wheels off and take it to em.
£45+VAT!!! Sounds like they did the usual ‘hour + VAT’ rate.
I’ve used Chasbikes, Essential Rubber & FWR for puncture repairs in the past … all around the £12-15 mark.
Cheers

first of all it is spelt TYRE and i think they mugged you at that price.
Wraysbury Tyres in Chertsey plugged an Avon Storm for me - £17.
Thank you peeps for all the info.
Found a small workshop up in Barnet mentioned on LB. Owner seemed a good bloke. Busy with customers bikes, always a good sign. Gave me business card and will do call outs if necessary. And quoted a fair price for puncture repair Also does servicing/repairs/MOT
