Bladerunner is no longer at Hein Gericke

Post by Bladerunner »

Further to the 'New Lid' post I'd just like to confirm that as of Friday 31st October I have nothing to do with Hein Gericke any more and do not wish to be associated with them in any way.

I am now the Dealer Principal at Total Triumph.

Thanks peeps, everyone's more than welcome. If you do pop in don't forget to introduce yourselves as it's always nice to put a face to a name.

Simon has emigrated to Australia, he's now at Sunshine State Motorcycles. Fair play to him, apparently the dealership is right next to the beach. Lucky sod :D

that about sounds right for modern day management,i must admit ive always wondered how a bike shop with no workshop/bike sales can survive in this day and age. its a shame its gone that way as HG originally had a lot of good stock and variety of the premium brands as well as their own kit.

the plymouth store had such a low stock level it looked like it had been broken into over night and they were obviously hit a lot harder with the lack of arai sales than taunton as the arai range was almost non existent along with the arlen ness/alpinestars leathers

Funny, I had a feeling there might be a post defending HG on here from a completely new user after the email I received earlier today.

Please accept my apologies evilmonkey whoever you may be....., I did try to keep my post as accurate as poss, and didn't think I'd said anything particularly untrue at all, but I've censored it anyway. :lol:

in response to your question about puma boots i would stay well clear of them, have spoke to 4 or 5 people who i trackday with that have tried them and no-one has a fond word to say about them,poor quality,no back up available and they defiently wouldnt buy them again or recommend them to friends
