As thoughts turn to spring and the new motorbike season, many riders will also be thinking about upgrading their clothing and equipment.
We’ve got some exciting news on that front and some new jackets now in stock.
We stock and give access to a wide range of clothing and helmets but are now looking at making our products even better.
Ahead of a revamp of our clothing and accessories department, Alex White has returned to this department from sales to work on some changes. Manager Daniel Williams is heavily involved in running our IT requirements and website, vital for online sales, and overseeing motorbike parts.
Alex will be working on the project, assisted by clothing and accessories advisers Belinda Dawson and Paul Huggins, to find out what customers want and if there are any other brands they would like added to our ranges.
One idea is to have a giant wall of helmets as a feature of the new-look, redesigned clothing display area.
Alex said: “We do constantly work on getting feedback about what brands people like and want to see in our dealership so your feedback is always welcome.”
You can let us have your comments in person in the showroom or online via email or our social media platforms.
“We’ll also be asking customers what they like and what they might like to see – anything we’re missing or any brands we don’t do.”
He was also keen to show off three new Oxford Products motorbike jackets which have just come in for the new season.
