Nice to see Rainbow living on (in a way). Best wishes to Steve from a well satisfied customer from the past

Are you two not bothering with AJ's then?

Not anymore.............well, not the Rotherham version

The Shipley one, is full of good old fashioned service just like any BMW Motorrad dealer should be

Helped a mate buy a used 1200GS from Shipley end, last month and you couldn't have a better sales/prep/delivery experience from Steve Coleman and the rest of the AJ's team at Shipley, they were superb

Definitely a game of 2 halves
 
Yet I've just had 1st class service from AJ in Rotherham.

+ 1, I have always found them at AJ to be first class, especially after dealing with the local KTM dealer.

That's a bit strong JB.
Most of the team are still there and the new staff are coming on very well.

Always casualties when new owners take over no matter what the industry is. Been there before.

It's not the end, it's a new beginning for everyone, staff and customers.

My passion for bikes will not fade no matter who I work for.

Cheers Dave.

Sorry Dave
It's the front desk and sales/back office that has changed the business persona so much and that is where to get it right

Tony, Leigh, Sancha,Nick and your good self still provide excellent 'people focused' service, below stairs etc.............but I wasn't impressed with managerial with the changes that had been made

Maybe I'll give it another try in 2019
 
Well, as I say, I've been dealing directly with the manager recently and the level of service I had was as good as I've had from any business at any time.
I'll certainly be taking the GSA to them for her service in May on the basis of that, though I am sorry Steve has gone.
 
+1 on that. I too am sorry to see Steve go, but I've had a couple of services done this year at AJ's, - no problem at all. I was very happy.

Perhaps AJ's should give their opinion of JB! :D:D
 
Had my GS serviced by Steve today and really pleased, Steve has always looked after me and his knowledge is second to none, he’s got a great set up and deserves to do very well, thank you Steve & good luck not that you will need it!
 
Good service from Steve again today, when a fork seal went awol at the weekend, fitted me in at short notice between 2 other bikes and worked until all was finished
Seal was past it's best

Visited Steve yesterday to get my bike MOT’d and a quick once over. He seemed a lot happier not being behind a desk at Alan Jefferies.

He gave me some great advice, sorted my bike and we had a nice chat afterwards. Top bloke.

Will happily sing his praise any day of the week. And recommend him. He’s quite happy to work on your bike n explain things to you as he’s doing it too if you like that sort of thing.

I shall be using him again for sure. 👍
