good mecanic in chiang mai??

[bobstaal]

bought my bike in the chiang mai motorbike shop..
made a testdrive before goin to laos:
first to pai - soppong - maehonsong - via dirt track back to chiang mai..
now i have the following problems: my exhaust is a little bit lose
the engin doesn't always start and makes some tickling sounds around the gearbox area?
i want to have everything fixed before the 16th, cause my visa is running out and cause it's really time to go for laos!!!
Now the problem is that i'm not really sure if i can trust the motorbikeshop mecanic..
After i bought the bike, the mecanic should have checked everything but i think this didn't happen.
i tried joes bike team, but they are busy untill the18th
now i'm goin to call samoto..G3 bike shop and chiang mai bikershop.
if anybody knows a good mecanic or has some advice.. pleace reply or call me on 070510179

Scott my girlfriend drives a suziki djebel 200 cc. she likes it very much, it is her first bike.
today we drove to um phang,i think on the 1054. magnificant road. really liked it. lots of nice windings and perfect views, altough the last will be better i guess in a later season. we will stay here for songkran because i dont wanna meet drunks here on the road.
