Rolling Roads - Yorkshire

So I'm getting a new can on my MK and will need it re-jetting and some rolling road time. It's fireblade engine on carbs.

Last time I used Holeshot as they were just down the road in Bradford, but they're in Ireland now which is a bit of a trek! What other options are there coming from Leeds? Bogg Bros would I assume be the obvious choice, but are there others to consider that do bike engines?

Thanks for the tip all. Just got back, did a great job - car running sweet now. Oddly it was running rich, not lean as I'd have expected putting a less restrictive exhaust in. It is a different engine though, so shows how you can only really tell if things are setup correctly by a proper tuning session.

What I did find out is that it'll run happily with or without my airbox, with the airbox just throttling slightly lower down the torque curve. So I can have noisy for road, and quiet for track if needed
