Considering buying a bike from them. Are they any good?

Thanks - Simon.

Short answer - yes, very good.

I've had 3 bikes in 3 years from Martin and Chris (and now Ian) including two 888 SP's.

They're not the cheapest (maybe I'm no good at haggling) but very straight and helpful.

Thoroughly recommended.

Btw what were you thinking of having? I was up there last week so had a pretty good look at most of the current stock.

Yup .... very good. And helpful

Price is not bad compared to "real" dealers

Have a word with Martin Westbrook there.

I was down there last Saturday talking to Martin, not looking not at a Ducati, but a new Aprilia RSV R (Sorry!). They are currently still £300 more expensive the best price I have been quoted (That's after haggling and getting £700 off their original price), but are the closest dealer to me.
