Anyone had any dealings with Kawasaki Autorama at Batley? Are they ok?
XJ600, VFR800, CBR1100, Varadero1000, CBR1100, STX1300, GTR1400 ?

I've used them a number of times, what makes you ask?

GTRpilot

Got a bike in there I might go for, 2nd hand but looks okay, just thought I'd ask here before I make the journey or start negotiations  :whistling:

I think you'll find them to be fair and honest with you. If I have any criticism of them it would be that their used bikes are expensive compared with a similar machine at an alternative dealer. That's just my opinion of course.

Thanks, interesting, I'll keep that in mind  :detective:

I believe the chap in charge is called Brian, unless he's since moved on. Roger, (OC) knows them very well I understand and will probably give you a more definitive opinion of them.

Speak to Brian Alford, he's a good, long time, friend of mine and has almost certainly forgotten more about Kawasaki's than the rest of us will ever know, he's a top bloke  :yes:   

I have dealt with them on many occasions and they are a reputable and fair dealer who will look after you... telling Brian I sent you wont guarantee any discount though  :mfr_lol: 


BE KIND...

I've dealt with Autorama in the past, and as LW says, they are a bit more expensive.


However, Brian does look after you and I would quite happily buy a bike from there.


Not been there for a few years mind (due to me not riding as frequently), so things may have changed.
