stig Posted September 3, 2007 Report Share Posted September 3, 2007 Hi all, Am in the process of buying a bike after a long break (see other thread). Having looked at a fair few 2nd hand bikes, given the model change to 2008, I'm considering buying a brand new, but older model year that dealers will try and shift - so a 2006/2007 or at a push a 2005 at the right price. Thing is, I've no idea of where I might find a dealer locally? I live near Reading in Berks, but anything within a 50mile radius is do-able, especially if the deal is a good'un An honest/good service dealer would obviously be preferable (as not all dealers are created equal ) I'd be grateful for any recommendations for dealers in the Berks/S.Oxon/Bucks/Hants/Middlx/Surry/Hants/Wilts areas? PS. Almost certain that I'll be going for a GG250 Pro, but i do keep finding myself drawn to Sherco 290s (must be a nostalgic throwback to the Bultaco Sherpa's ridden in my youth ) Just can't bring myself to like Beta's - totally unjustifiable from a 'good bike' perspective, but they just look so lumpy!

4ourtea Posted September 3, 2007 Report Share Posted September 3, 2007 I suggest BVM Moto at Stroud... they may be on the edge of your 50 mile radius but you would be guaranteed plenty of choice from Mark Kemp. You can alos go online and see the bikes they have available for sale. Tel no. 01453 762167 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
