    Chester Honda Centre - NOT

    If you ride an AT don't bother with this place, the bloke behind the counter did nothing but slag the bike off when I popped in there for some bits, I asked him for a few parts.

    'Nah we don't stock anything, it was never a popular bike'

    It's a great bike I said, okay it has it's limitations but it's great at what it was designed for.

    ' Never a good bike no wonder they didn't sell that many, they will never build a replacement, the market is too small'

    Okay I said why according to motor industry figures was the BMW R1200GS the best selling bike in the UK for 3 straight months?

    Head in Sand 'No it wasn't it is always a sports bike'

    Okay, if that is the case why are so many people changing sports bikes for Adventure Bikes.

    ' No they're not it's the other way around'

    At which point I left vowing never to return, even if they do come up with a replacement for the AT and this place has the best deal ever.

    I am temporarily working in chester and tried this place for a new throttle cable!

    they got it pretty quick and told me that they keep air filters and other routine service parts in stock

    maybe your talking to did the trick!

    they weren't over friendly and there is nowhere to park if you aren't on the bike (which if you are picking up a new part you will be!)

    so if you are stuck for parts then they are possbibly worth a try!
