won't look nice after there mechanics had it.. took one of mine in there for brake pads. an got home to find a 50p size piece of exhaust heat shield missing , so i questioned the damage that was done while in there hands. to be told "OH yes we had a word and the mechanic did it " . but forgot to say anything... we'll replace it they said. i looked on suzuki website it was around £130 ... after several weeks and phone calls , it finally arrived . so off i went . "That will be £250 please " ????? to which my answer was i don't think so . you broke it . you pay for it ..."oh yes , it says here " and iv'e not been back since . since the name change i have lost all faith in the shop...
Good friends don't let you do stupids thing alone .

Just checked it’s MOT history - practically impeccable - very low milage for its age

Oh and I've always had good service from that dealership...

Its worth doing greybeard, its helpful. :)
Some people have different expieriences with dealers, my local dealer can upset people but always looks after me.

Yes it looks tidy, was in there other day, for my belt replacement, there are a couple of new Welsh faces on sales, but same staff on service as when they were Bransons
I was surprised by the size of the silvering! There is a goldwing in there as well now that's enormous!

Yes somehow that Goldwing looked even more huge than they usually do!
Some really nice used bikes of all kinds in there, mostly with around 3k miles on them - the lease purchase effect now, a couple of years on.
