Hi guys,
I just wanted to know if anybody knows where you can get a tank dent repaired in london (NW preferably or mobile). Basically its just pushed and not creased. I’m looking for somebody that has had personal experience with somebody carrying out paintless dent repairs. I’m looking to spend about £100 max on it to get it done. Previously, I got my bike resprayed at the same time as dent removal… but that was in Scotland.
Any help will be appreciated.
I’ve enclosed some pics
Cheers Tot
Are there not used tanks on ebay for that price?
Just asking because it may work out cheaper to replace with a good quality used item.
Nah dude, they breakers and ebay were asking for £100 for a bust up and creased tank! I don’t want to get another set of stompgrips for a new tank so i’d rather repair.
Ok then…Check these guys out.
My mate just had some work done with them to straighten the sub frame on his ZX6R and was happy with the price and quality of work.
They’re in Rayleigh, Essex and I’ve spoken to them and they sound like good sorts.

This guy sorted a dent on my mini…turns up on his GS and works his magic…you can’t tell there was a dent there.
Just send a couple of snaps to him for a quote.
I went to southern Cross today and they referred me to a local place around the corner who said they couldn’t do paintless repairs. I e-mailed the dentman yesterday and rung him today and he said it might be dooable. Price of a new tank is about £200 on ebay in the WRONG colour! I’ve seen few knocking about for much cheaper but they’re in worse conditions than my current tank. He quoted me about £120 but i’ve since sent him more pics. I guess that’s less beer money for me over christmas! Worst comes to worse, I’d get a bagster cover off ebay in the colours, not ideal since I already have a good tank bag, but will at least cover over the dent… and the stomp grip grr!
www.specialistdents.co.uk this guy is fantastic & does it by post. Give him a call. I know him personally ( having designed his site ) & can vouch for his work.
Hey,
was just wondering if the ‘dentman’ got it sorted for you and how much it was…?
Cheers,
Matt

How do you take the dent out of a tank by post?
at a guess, you post it to him and he posts it back
“this guy is fantastic & does it by post”
me groovy Yeah. I guessed that was the case but that’s not we were being told.
