I took my Harley Sportster to Lightning Services when it was sounding like a bag of nails, Baz and Kev did a brilliant job of stripping the bike down to find the problem, gave me good advice on what to do about it and saved me over £1500!Without doubt they are my first choice to work on my Harley. Keep up the good work geezers!

I have known Baz for many years, initially meeting him through the Motorcycle Action Group. We jointly organised many events and meetings so I can vouch first hand that he is very professional and dedicated in all that he undertakes. To be fair I have yet to use the workshop facilities at Lightning Services, being able to maintain my machines myself. However I have bounced the odd problem off Baz and received sound advice. Also he has sourced various odds and ends for some of my restoration projects. These he has dealt with promptly and I have no complaints about the service that I received.

I started with a pile of bits and ended up with an awesome bike that puts a big stupid grin on my face every time I ride her . To sum up the work they did - Strip , powder coat and rebuild both wheels supply so many parts both replacement originals and custom parts and loads and loads of advise . without Baz and his guys help I don't think I could have done it as quickly or as well , there patience with my endless stupid questions was amazing . Thanks Guys

I would highly recommend Lightning Services to any one. After an accident on my Softail Evo, Baz was able to replace all parts easily and quickly and the bike came back like new. They are also able to replace difficult to source parts for any old bikes, makes my Harley Panhead project much easier.

The free advice I got has saved me money in the long run.
I now buy all my bits from here even though they are not the closest to me.

I have given up using the local Harley dealers, they are expensive and not particularly helpful. I'd rather travel from Malmesbury to Trowbridge and deal with Baz and Kev. Baz has given us some good advice with regard to our FXRs,and his prices for parts, and service are excellent. Could do with a cup of tea though.

Been using Lightning Services for about four years - I've lost count of the times Baz has given me help with things - nothing is too much trouble. They have serviced my Evo Wideglide and my Road King and stage one'd the Road King too. Baz provided a great deal of advice with tweaking the Road King and when I'd decided on what needed doing he did the work too, a good job at a good price.

I wanted to have the barrels of my chopper diamond cut. After hours on the phone to the USA where the attitude was "take it, or leave it" so I decided to leave it. I was then given the telephone number of Baz from Lightning Services, one call the price & delivery time were agreed. Two weeks later a parcel arrived, with nervous haste I ripped the box to shreds, only to reveal the most amazing diamond cut barrels I had even seen.

Baz and team many thanks, not just for the quality of the work, but for the care and passion you guys have for what you do.

Kindest regards,

Keith Moore.

This is business run by an enthusiast for the enthusiast, nothing is to much trouble and the prices unlike main H-D Dealers are not at level needed to support a big showroom.
