So guys and girls where is the best place to buy your spares for your bike as I dont want to go back to the dealer after a falling out over servicing (i did it myself).
 
Independent dealers used to be considerably cheaper but not anymore. The dufference could be 10-20%. Add post and package and you are more or less equal.
I use Motorworks and also www.motobins.co.uk
Or call Darren at South London Motorcycles. Good service and decent prices.

there you are...

:D :beerjug: :D
 
can recomend Motorworks and Sherlocks, personally I thought Motobins were not that great with the old telephone manner which I think is kinda essential when most of the sales is via the phone, though it could have been a bad day (we all have em!) bit as Yosi says its worth ringing them all and comparing prices every time...ever so occasionally your Dealer might win!!!!!!:D
 
I have almost exclusively used Motobins for years now, and without exception I have found them to be very good. They have dealt with me with good grace, and politeness, and the delivery has been spot on every time. I used to go up there every so often to pick bits up, if I fancied a ride, and they were always very friendly.
Strange, innit, how peoples experiences of the same company can differ so much?

used to use motorworks exclusively. good firm, but their delivery times just seem to get longer and longer. victims of their own success?

now switched to sherlocks. bits come next day :)
 
Motorworks, great people to deal with and very helpful. Never had a problem with delivery times tho! If the part's not in stock and they have to get, it they always give an approximate delivery time.
