A week ago we were in Medellin at Suzuki Super Servicio. Carlos Mesa (a very good mecanic) and Mario de Bedout (the manager) are extremely friendly and helpfull people. They welcome overland travellers and have a lot of experience in maintaining a wide range of (big) motorcycles.
Carlos and Mario speak both english, are full of humor and like pie.
The workshop is so clean, you can eat from the floor.
If you need tires in Medellin, go to Caratera 52 no 57_43. This part of the street is full of tire shops and bike related stuff.

Well, I saw their website two weeks ago and sent them an email requesting a chain kit and sprockets for my Vtsrom, SUZUKI SUPER SERVICIO I mean.
I have still had no reply, so if they want adventure riders to go there, maybe they need to be reading their emails a bit more?
If you know someone there, can you get them to send me an email please as I need the above items by the 25th Nov.
Cheers

Shameless Promotion for Mario at Suzuki Super Servicio
TravellingStrom -
Hey its Obadiah - we met in Tulum - I was on a red KLR coming down from NY. Just said goodbye to Mario this morning - he and his shop are amazing. He made us feel right at home, gave us full access to his shop, got parts within minutes for all our bikes, and took us out driving in the mountains. Don't worry about not hearing from him, he will be able to get any V-Strom part right away when you get there.
To anyone else who is going through Medellin (and I recommend you do - see my blog post if you need a push Pura Vida 2009-10 » New York to Argentina by motorcycle…… ) and needs anything motorcycle related, Mario will take amazing care of you - we felt like family by the time we left. He lived in the states and speaks English, his mechanics are super skilled and he is too, wonderful people all around, I can't say enough. I wish there was a guy like him in NYC, I would stop doing my own repairs!
Thank you Mario! Everyone else, bring your business to him if you're in Medellin, you won't be disappointed!
Cheers,
O.
