Posted: 10:45 - 28 Jul 2016 Post subject: On the Wheel Motorcycle Superstore Brighton |
|
|
Hi guys,
Just to let you know we are opening (its already opened but we have a huge open day planned) our new Motorcycle superstore in Brighton on the 24th Sept. All welcome, and we will be giving lots away, as well as having stunt riders, BSB, Pirelli trucks etc etc.
We are main dealer for KTM, Suzuki, Mutt Motorcycles, Sinnis Motorcycles and Peugeot Scooters. Our other store in Brighton town centre is Yamaha main dealer, so generally we got things covered.
Our new store is Ocean View Business Park,Gardner Rd, Southwick Brighton Bn41 1PL, has parking for 200 cars (obviously free - a miracle in Brighton) and we have everything from helmets, to full race leathers and t shirts. Check out our Facebook page On the Wheel Motorcycles.
Tell your friends etc, its a great ride out down here, and we hope to make this the next Ace cafe in Brighton. Something we sadly lack in such a great motorcycle city. Im planning to host a Moto Gymkhana event hopefully soon too. We have a cafe as well - essential after a ride.
I know this is advertising, but lets be honest - If no one knows about a new shop opening, then more is the pitty. And its you guys that will make it the destination we want.
We are going to be focusing on girls motorcycle clothing too - sadly lacking in other stores, and as a man - I like to see everyone looking cool on bikes (as well as safe) but particularly ladies.
Anything you need let me know, and that includes anything you think we should stock. I am open to suggestion. Like I said we want this to be friendly, and your store that caters for everyone.
Im really excited haha. We are open now, but if your coming a long way I suggest you come on the 24th Sept for the big day - the cafe is not finished yet although if you ask for Mike Garrod I will make you a tea or coffee haha
All the best ____________________ Its all about enjoying every day that you have - or at least some point of it |

Silky has visited and reviewed the establishment.
I was sceptical when i heard the term 'superstore' ... as Brighton has been devoid of anything larger than a corner shop size within a 30 mile radius for many years.
However i was pleasantly surprised on arrival to see quite an impressive sized showroom.
Main dealer for KTM ... but only up to 690cc. So no RC8's. But lots of KTMs.
Good selection of Suzukis.
A few (like 5) second hand bikes.
And some of the cheap chinese Sinnis bikes.
Great selection of riding gear.
Helmets are Shoei or Arai.
Clothing is AlpineStars or RST.
No Dainese
Staff were friendly and from my first contact appeared to be bikers themselves.
To compare it to P&H , who are huge but 25 miles away and to be honest are rip off merchants.
This new place is about 1/2 the size ... so still nice and big... and the prices looked pretty good / standard.
Eg; a new Arai is going to be what its going to be.
I did note that they had priced up a Shoei helmet wrongly and it was £150 cheaper than Helmet City. But i raised it and this may now be changed.
Note to owners: seeing as i saved you £150 per helmet.. i suggest you agree a 10% discount for BCF members mentioning the following phrase "we love silky".
(Note: p&h do a discount if you ask !).
Not quite finished but open for business.
Easy to find ... even though its in a crap part of town.
Once the cafe is open it will be a great place to ride to.
Plenty of easy parking on site.
Opening event day is on 24th September ... when i have been assured there will be many many bikini clad ladies.
So.... SE Winnahs and Sarf East Chapter ... what ya say ?... fancy riding down from Boxhill over the downs on the 24th.

The website is currently being worked on and it also incorporates our other Brighton shop (the Yamaha main dealer).
https://www.onthewheel.co.uk/
So is there any way of identifying yourself as a BCF member in the store ?
I dont think the "logging in on your phone" is a good idea, it could be quite time consuming. Im just trying to think of the quickest way possible - with the least fuss. ____________________ Its all about enjoying every day that you have - or at least some point of it |
