    You have the wrong forum i'm afraid.

    Do you know exactly what work is needed? If you don't, ring the guy and find out.
    Then ring some dealers and ask what workshops they use. Ring the workshops and ask for a quote. By law you are entitled to decide where the scooter is fixed as you are paying for it. ( As long as it is a reputable workshop ).
    If it is just paint work, €1,106 sounds a bit extreme, but if he is getting some bodywork replaced and painted, then it might be a genuine price but it still seems too much. I am sure you could find a cheaper price. What is important is that you shop around.
