Cambodia, bikeshop Phnom Penh
 

Hi there!

Just as I was getting depressed at finding a new chain and sprockets for my Transalp I ran into Dara's bikeshop. Great guy, 17 years of experience (although he's only 32), speaks fluently English and can handle almost everything. What he can't find, he'll modify.
Found him on saturday, brought the bike in on sunday and he fixed it same day with a modified rearsprocket, made of my old innerwork and a new ring of teeth welded onto it.
Had a couple of beers with him and gave us some tips on dirttracks, as he also takes out tourists on dirt trips and does a lot of enduro and motocross himself.

You can use the GPS-coordinates from the closed adventure moto shop:

GPS: N 11 34.276 - E 104 55.739

It's the same street, cross the next crossing from the riverside. It's on the righthand side.

Nice to hear Dara is still around in Phnom Penh. I used to go to his shop to get my Suzuki DR250 fixed up, when I was in Cambodia (about 150 years ago). He was well known in the expat community back then for his general greatness.

Back then he was specialized in two-stroke crossers, I think he probably owned the fastest bike in Cambodia.

Confirmed
 

2015 and Dara is still there, he manage to find a regulator for my Transalp in a few days (just because of the holydays...)

Dara has changed his email address.
The new one: daramotorcycle@gmail.com

I changed here me tyres in a Gs1200 - i brought the tyres from Spain -. No problem. The owner wasnt at the shop at that time, he also organizes motorbike tours. His wife attended me and a kit did the work. So far so good.
