Tbilisi, Georgia: Rushmore Motorcycles Georgia LLC
https://www.rushmore-motorcycles-georgia.com
Easily you can find them on Google Maps.
First impression was the warm wellcome by Graham. We got in touch in advance with a nice communication: important contacting him in advance. Excellent attention, helpful and nice conversation.
The second impression was the impeccable and very well equipped workshop.
Finally Ivan: he is a young and very skilled mechanic. It doesn't matter if he doesn't know the model: he find the right information and do a properly job own of an expert in the brand. Very happy with the service, I wish I have a mechanic like him at my home town. For sure I will repeat when I come back to Georgia. 100% recommendable.

Great place
Got Rushmore motorcycles recommended by some motorcycle friends and they did not disappoint. I later spoke to a couple of adventurers who had the same experience as me: great professional service, clear communication and a crew that is just really enthusiastic about all things motorcycle. Couldn't have wished for a better place to get my Transalp ready for the next 11.000 kilometers to Ulaanbaatar. Also a good place to run into other bikenuts who are undertaking similar adventures. Hope to be back here one day!

Ask https://mototraveltbilisi.com/contact. They're a rental agency rather than a workshop, but they can probably recommend a good one.

They're a rental agency with a storage business, in-house mechanics, and excellent English spoken. I'd recommend them highly (though all this doesn't come cheap).

Info Update
Thanks for the tips all!
We've spoken to Mototravel Georgia and they recommend contacting Sandro from Motodocs Tbilisi. This is also the person doing the maintenance for their fleet.
Another interesting fact: to import parts above 300 Lari into Georgia you need a tax number. Which is quite annoying to have to set up yourself. So in case you are considering ordering parts it is also best to do it via a local business.
