Default reccomend me a motorbike shop Southampton

Getting a couple of days off next week, so I thought I'd service the ER6.
I used to pass P+H in Crawley every day, so I was spoilt for bikes to drool over and all the bits I needed.
Now I've moved to Hedge End, M27 J7, I need to find the nearest bike shop wher I go and get filters, oil and the like off the shelf, and aslo somewhere I can go drool over bikes, maybe trade in this DRZ I never ride.

Excellent - a bike shop ver close by (crescent), I'll check it out, though doubt they will have filters for my Kwak

Not sure about three legged cross - still waiting for a bike I ordered in 2005!

Yeah, but you can't beat it for drool factor. Ducati, Yamaha, Triumph, MV Agusta, Moto Morini and all in one place.

Rob Wilshers is just down the road in Bursledon (not fair from Tesco's junction ...I know he's Suzuki dealers primarily...also Gordon at Spike Island Motorcycles in Eastleigh. Go down M27 to junction 6, turn right and head into Eastleigh, then as you enter the main drag on the right hand side (40mph zone) is the island (other side is train tracks)... they are good people, speedy efficient and very friendly...tel: 023 8065 0680 (MOT's, spares, bike sales, servicing, clothing, helmets)

Thanks for those too.
I've passed Spike Island a few times going to Lidl's (pikey I know!), but it has never looked either open or occupied.

Liz was saying somebody had told her that Crescent had taken it over... I think Tee Jay mentioned it at Poole the other week.
