I'm I reading right! george white as gone under? bought mine from them, they also took over my favorit bike dealer in plymouth :( bought a quite few bikes from "gt motorcycles" over the years, allways got a excellent p/x and a better deal :) and you get to ride your new bike all the way home :D

Oh Dear ... their website simply says "Sorry, but George White is unavailable" .... doesn't look good  :(

O.C.

"unavailable" must be the new term for bust...and as you say Rusty..it doesn't look good

Picked the repaired bike this morning ;D
Missing the chrome stick-on Kawasaki letters on the new fairing but I can fix that. Otherwise fine and now tucked up till decent weather arrives.
GW's premises are locked but some folks wandering around the car park looking for their stuff/bikes ??
Very sad and I will need to find the nearest big K dealer for future needs.

O.C.

it is a sad sign of the times, but on a personal note its good news that you got your bike back  :)

Glad to hear you have your bike back. I bought my bike from, and continue to have it serviced by, Bristol Kawasaki and I would recommend them if their location is an option for you.

65,000 miles now. Loving this bike.

Blimey am I glad to see that news, I had visions of them keeping the bike for months. Good result I'm really chuffed for you. :)
What would you rather be   or a wasp?

+1 ... thank goodness you have the GTR back ... TBH I thought it was going to be gone a while.  :(

Bikes running fine - I've been back and forth to the local hospital several times for tests (on me not the bike :smiley:)in the last couple of weeks and car parking is so bad using the bike is the only option.
Brittany Ferries paid for everything , £4,800 , bought me a new Schuberth C3 (brill) and sent me a voucher for £75.
The receivers at George Whites also returned to me the scratched bits for disposal. So ... I have a complete 'hardly marked' end can and right side green pannier (excl.the lock) and other bits and bobs.
Let me know if you can use then.

O.C.

That's a great result, and I'm glad it all came good in the end  ...good luck with selling the 'spare' bits
