Malleus Posted May 18, 2017 Share Posted May 18, 2017 Been a while, this made me laugh though - out of curiosity I asked a main dealer in London about costs of replacing brake pads and headstock bearings (Yea I know I should do it myself but I been really busy lately! and am being pretty lazy - I have the parts and my local garage will do the lot for £100) This is their response: "The cost for parts with labour is £457.81 inc VAT." "Do you have a breakdown of how you arrived at £457.81? Off the top of my head; OEM bearings cost £25-35, brake pads cost £15-£30, so if we are saying the top end for parts is £95 and labour cost is £90 ph, - that comes out at 4 hour job?" "The labour is 3 hours with a cost of £75 ph plus VAT PADS £82.32 +VAT In stock BEARINGS £74.19 +VAT in stock" Not sure about anyone here but I have never seen brake pads at £82 or headstock bearings for £74 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neversaydie Posted May 18, 2017 Share Posted May 18, 2017 I think £75 per hour plus vat is the going rate for most maindealers across the uk, possibly a little higher in the Smoke. Dont think they are rerally interested in repairing older bikes, just want to sell new ones on pcp deals, and then service them 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
