DIY? they're pretty close to the simplest reels I've ever done.
When mine do go to a pro they go to Glen at The Big Fish TGA but I guess anybody that services reels should be able to do them.

normaly do BF, but it realy needs the works including a new handle,

Its done the job for nearly 12 years so can't moan at its longevity
 
Just thought there maybe a specialist abu servicer.

What kind/colour handle do you want? I've got a grey standard paddle handle from my 5400 (which is the same size as the 6000s unless you have the power handle) sitting around here you can have if you want.
