Hmm, not sure about that. I had them do some work for me when I was riding through on a Suzuki Bandit 10 years back. After their little tuning caper the bike would not run afterwards - their smart arse mechanic had (without my permission or without even asking me) cut a hole in the side of my air filter cover to provide supposedly better breathing. They of course denied all knowledge of this.
I ended up having to duct tape over the hole before I could ride it.
As for them touching a GS12 with its mass of electronics, I'd wait till you get to either Perth or Darwin.

Membership - help keep us going!
Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.
You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
