Ah right, but i think VD may have removed the main link to there site in an attempt to hide the poor reviews but its back fired big time.

If I were Victor Devine, Honda motorcycle dealer up in Glasgow, I reckon I wouldn't be advertising this particular model of Honda on my facebook site so soon after this debacle.

I was looking at the new NC700x, took a seat, had a look over it for 10 minutes. The salesman was busy washing a bike and didn't say a word to me.

I got bored and went home.

How the chuff they stay in business baffles me. Perhaps there's some ritual or small votive offering that they require before they lower themselves to acknowledge customers. Eh?

Noted.

Still waiting for bird-on-bike pics. OP will surely...

Sounds like you had a nightmare with Victor Devine.

I have only been in once and have had much the same service as others have received.

I was looking at the new NC700x, took a seat, had a look over it for 10 minutes. The salesman was busy washing a bike and didn't say a word to me.

I got bored and went home.

On the flipside, I have had 2 bikes from Phoenix and can't fault them so far.

Glad you have it sorted, and I'm sure your enjoying the CBR, I know I did. Great fun for a 125. Thumbs Up


Really happy with the guys at Phoenix, they even called up a week after I got the bike to check everything was ok and to ask if I needed help with anything.

Top banana!

Do you have any glass that needs cutting?

If so, you could get her to brave the cold and kill two birds with one stone.

I think, seeing as BCF has been good and helpful, our reward should be a few nudey snaps.

Primark and McDonalds. None of this fully synthetic, 3000 miles change over and platinum plugs nonsense.
