    Hi;
    What is the highest discounted value that you ever get on biker gear during the festive shopping?

    Interesting that you raise this. I have tried to get the 40% discount advertised on Sportsbikeshop's behalf by this:

    http://www.dealscove.com/coupons/sportsbikeshop.co.uk

    The code doesn't work so I suspect that it's a click-bait scam:(. I'm awaiting a response from Sportsbikeshop shortly after they open - I hope!

    Otherwise, there are spatterings of 10%, but to me, that's hardly a discount any longer; certainly not enough to encourage me to buy something I wouldn't ordinarily purchase.

    Got a brand new Alpinestars Challenger V2 suit off eBay for £359ish delivered.
    It was £399 but there was an eBay 10% off coupon too. Decent..

    UPDATE

    Just received this from Sportsbikeshop:

    Thank you for your email.

    From the photo you have provided and a search on google, this seems to be a "click bait" website.

    Unfortunately we do not offer discount codes, we offer a price match system.

    Apologies for any inconvenience.


    I did think it was too good to be true.:(

    Hi no not from Manchester from Cresent in Verwood I always buy all my kit from them.....it is simple to maintain it has a usb cable inside by the humo charges for up to 4 hrs then good for 8 hrs use they say to charge it every 6 to 8 wks to stop the battery going flat of course if it goes off it goes back to Italy also at 5yrs old for a service and check up.....I thought worth having as most suits are around that price and I have always worn Dainese....did have alpine stars years ago but then they switched manufacture to Asia and imho...quality dropped off..

    Yeah, it's good to be true. There lots of other sellers offering great discounts on top brands like outletmoto, motocard, fc-moto, maximo-moto, motoblouz etc, 100% reliable source for bike gears.
