bike mechanic in lviv, ukraine?
I replaced my fork selas before leaving, but alas, one of my seals is leaking and has spilled oil all over my brakes. does anyone know of a bike mechanic in lviv who can replace the seals. good to know: i ride a suzuki DR350 and didn't bother to bring spare seals as they were new.
regards
Patrick

Been to Lviv several times. Didn't realise any mechanic. Not sure if you can get help here. My be better to write directly to Ukraine Community :

I am sure you will get a reply.
Good luck

I know a guy Lviv who might be able to help, if you are on FB then PM your add and I will start a group message with him if you need any help. But unless fork seals of a DR350 are the same as other bikes maybe it might be best to try a larger city like Kiev. I know a few bikers there also who might be able to help should you choose to go there

you definitely should be able to find some mechanics in kiev. I dont know any but flag down any passing motorcyclist in Kiev and they should lead you to someone.
