A decent Mechanic who speaks english

Post by Moose »

I was hoping to find a reliable mechanic that is trustworthy and can speak a fair amount of English.

Someone who has experience with bigger bikes, not just moto's. Even if it costs a bit more, its worth it in the long run!

Any suggestions are welcome!

"Where?" is a legitimate question. There is 1 in PP, none in Kampot, or Battambang, have heard of a 1/2 decent 1 in SR and 1 very good 1 in S/ville. I can put you in contact with them, but why would you ride further then you have to?
Edit - I'm talking western mechanics btw, not khmer, so if you are looking for a great job done cheap as, don't waste my time.

Moose asked for a reliable mechanic, not this two wheels idiot.
