I have seen photo's of appalling badly made plenum's etc on this forum so would avoid having seen these.
No axe to grind myself though, I can make my own rubbish without paying someone else for it 
Might help if you edit the title to include the name 'MB Customs'
Regards Mark

3 times as lucky then?I know the thread you linked me too and the only thing is on here you are only getting one side of the story, but I hope you get
the matter resolved , as I have had good service on both my turbo conversions and zx14 rebuild I can't be the only happy customer?
Good luck though

Nope I'm number 2 
I was happy too with Malcolm's work and all his advise with my turbo conversion a few years ago.
Paul was unfortunate though
Hope you too get sorted
Thank's, Joe

I dont suppose you remember seeing my R1 tucked in the dyno room corner and my SXV supermoto sitting in his workshop, ive had both sides of the story
where im concerned, but to be charged nearly 6 grand storage when i dispute his work is out of order, then to sell your bike without permission so yes
im a little bit pissed and thats only half of it

Oh it may have been blue and yellow, I remember a r1 turbo bike there though and was about 1 year ago he commented that he was doing work bit by bit
depending on how much funds where being paid? . That's all I know,
I am sure you are not happy your bike being sold if that's the case but I hope you get it resolved one or the other, I'm not bothered
about bringing up old posts that's cool ita a shame if you got poor service,

NEED NOT HAVE WORRIED. MY ENGINE IS NEARLY READY FOR COLLECTION. WHEN I MENTIONED WHAT WAS BEING SAID ON THIS FORUM. HE SHOWED ME THE CCTV RECORDING
WITH SOUND BETWEEN MOTOMOD HIMSELF AND HIS WIFE,WHERE MOTOMOD ADMITS TO OWING THEM MONEY.THEY ALLOW HIM TO TAKE THE BIKE AS HE PROMISES TO PAY WHEN HE
CAN. THEN HE TUCKS THEM FOR THE MONEY,SO AFTER FOUR MONTHS THEY SELL HIS BIKE TO RECOVER THEIR LOSSES. THEN HE PLAYED ONE OF IMP PAUL COLLECTING HIS
CAR. WHERE BEFORE PAYING HE GOES ALL OVER THE CAR,INSPECTING THE WORK THEN WALKS IN THE OFFICE,PAYS UP AND THANKS HIM ON A JOB WELL DONE SHAKES HIS
HAND AND LEAVES,WHEN ONE OF THE STAFF OFFER TO GIVE HIM A HAND TO GET IT ON THE TRAILER HE DECLINES, AND THEN SPENDS 20 MIN STRUGGLING TO GET IT
LOADED.AND HOOKED UP TO HIS BMW SO IF THE CAR WAS PERFECT ON INSPECTION HOW COME THE MANIFOLD MANAGED TO DISTORT THREE MONTHS LATER. MUST BE GREMLINS
UP WHERE HE LIVES. HE WOULD NOT LET ME BORROW THE FOOTAGE TO PLAY ON HERE. I WILL CARRY ON USING MALC HE OFFERS A WARRANTEE ON HIS WORK AND ALSO HAS
ENGINEERING INSURANCE.

So let me get this right:
This guy records and keeps all his CCTV footage, just to prove he's not ripping folks off, and then shows it to punters just to put their minds
at ease?
Wierd.
