Hmmm might be a different case but Jim Allan in Falkirk shut their Suzuki showroom last year.

Could be linked to that but honestly I don't know.

Suzuki had quite a cull of dealerships last year. When my recall letter turned up (GSX650F - reg/rec) they stressed to check the website for current dealerships as there had been a lot of changes.

Hmmm yeah bought my brand new gixer from Jim Allan in '09, quite disappointing to say the least, there you go, thats yer new bike, totally not interested. And MOM, what can I say, expensive AND **** service, my best experience is defo Saltire in edinburgh, the staff always make time to have a chat if your there to buy a bike or simply just for a brouse around

Thank gawd it's not cupar. I seen them opening up new franchises for different manufacturers & expect them to get too big for their boots & crash and burn.....

Cupar m/c were a big help as well as this forum in getting my bike back on the road.
