    We used to have Cox Honda and Bournemouth Honda on here but they have fallen by the wayside,people asking for fairings etc just wondered if anyone knows of a dealer who might be interested?

    Good call Dave, it would be really helpful to have a dealer again. I used Cox before but then they just stopped answering any contact.

    Would be good Mr B , even if it is a little discount., something is better than nothing.

    I asked Grantham Honda some time ago but they weren't interested. I would have thought and way to gets ones product out there is a good way?

    It would take very little effort to post new bike deals etc?:confused:

    I'm not a fan of Fowlers myself and why I bought my blade at Thunder-road Newport.

    But if we can get one who can pop on and make a effort to give a good deal for all members then it sounds a great idea again

    Not a fan of Fowlups either. Tend to get spares from david silvers or lings, but did get a few parts from fowlups in the past. One was a new key they were supposed to program for the HISS on my 600f. Had to wait around whilst they did it after initially keying it to a cb1000.

    Not a bad idea - always like a deal. Just got a good discount at the stealers close to me actually.

    if anyone talks to a local dealer to them and they are happy to have someone come on and deal with us then give me a PM and I will pass this to Rob for you all

    in the end if it means discount and good service for all on here and extra ££ for a dealer then it sounds great to me.

    Cox Honda used to be on here but for some reason gave up. They run the Blackpool, Lancaster and Preston branches. Mind you I wouldn't be too keen if I were them because as soon as anyone posts any requests and a price is posted someone always wants to chime in with some sort of negativity. Such as get one off ebay or a pattern part is much cheaper etc etc. Just sayin'.

    I know a few dealers that would be more than interested, they would have to stay anonymous but I've heard they sell real good shit;)
