Hi everybody,

I just moved to Warsaw and I am looking for a reliable Motorcycle Service Technician / Atelier / Workshop that can make the revision to my V-Strom.

Unfortunatelly my Polish is too basic at the moment to be able to read your related posts. So I would be really gratefull if somebody could reccomend me a trustworthy mechanik in Warsaw that could make the revision required to register my V-Strom in Poland.

Thank you,

Simon

On which part of Warsaw do You live? Do You prefer any district?

I live in Zoliborz but I am ready to go to other district if there is a mechanik that I can trust and that applies a fair price range.

In 2,000 km (so most probably this early summer) I will have to make the 30,000 km check so I would prefer to keep going to the same person indipendently from where it is located in Warsaw.

Regarding the registration your V-Strom in Poland you need to visit any "Stacja Kontroli Pojazdów" (Vehicle Inspection Station) that inspects motorcycles. It doesnt really matter which one you choose because it's pretty much a formality. They check brakes, lights, VIN etc. However remember to emphasize that you want them to perform FIRST check in Poland and also make sure that they put correctly every number on the certificate you will receive from them. Do not forget to take with you all the motorcycle documentation that you currently have.

Unfortunately I cant help in the selection of proper mechanic to look after your V-Strom in Warsaw. Need to wait for the other collegues' responses.

Hi You won't find a single bad opinion of this guy. I always go there to get my bike inspected or modyfied. I know him for some years, never let me down.

It was discussed on this forum recently. http://www.vstromclub.fora.pl/wiadomosci,2/ubezpieczenie-w-allianz,18212.html?sid=6e2d8a4b3c0494e4a498834e6367f259 Unfortunately for you the thread is in Polish. Maybe try to use Google translator. I believe Allianz will be the cheapest and quite reliable.

Regarding the service/workshop: if You are from Zoliborz You can visit Stajnia Motocyklowa - ul.Jagiellońska 67A building nr 1
03-303 Warszawa. They are really trusted specialists and service few V-stroms, including mine.
At the same place You have also MOTOGUMY, wheels and tires service and shop - also one of the best.

Thank you Lukasz. I have just contacted them as I have contacted some other mechanics trying to find somebody that I can trust and that has a fair service/cost ratio.

As a separate note, I went to talk with several insurance companies and if among them there is not a big difference, because as everywhere in Europe they benchmark each other, I can say that the basic insurance (the one required by law) is 4 to 5 times lower than in my country (I am Italian)!!!
