Hi Ya

Suggest wandering along the top of Mancester Street (not at night at the other end where the ladies are found

)

There are quite a few there, though I aint the best authority on telling you which ones are good!

Have fun

Depends on what you are looking for...

Trevor Pierce - Ferry Rd
Sportzone Suzuki - Manchester St
Street and Sport Triumph - Manchester St
Hampton Honda - Carmen Rd in Hornby.

These would have to be the best that I have dealt with.

Friendly and knowledgeable.

Stay away from the Honda dealers in manchester st they are pricks.

Sweet as they are the ChCh agents for Harley and Buell.

I must admit I like the Buells a lot

I am biased from many years ago but avoid Hampton's in Hornby. The old man is a right prick.
