Can anyone help with a contact for a Triumph mechanic in Brisbane?

I ride a 1972 Bonneville T120RV that could use a service on the gearbox.

Thank you

Thank you Welshrob for the contact. I'll ring them soon and talk to them about this T120 gearbox prob.

I really appreciate your time and effort posting this info.

Thank you

The mechanic we use for our classic bikes is Gary Woodcock he is a member of the Historical Motorcycle Club of Queensland and comes highly recommended. Mobile Ph. 0407 659 896 Home/fax (07)38823282. My husband and I are members of HMCCQ Pine Rivers area. The mechanic at BJ's is also very good but there could be a price difference.

Thanks for the response Jewel.

I'll certainly give Gary Woodcock a call.

What I heard on the forums and a friend about BJ's has not all been positive. I'm told they are expensive and their qaulity control is not what it could be. Some have said the mechanical was OK, but relatively expensive.

Thank you again for the response.
