yeah if your into frank thomas............ i suppose there will be a decent bargain but you ll have to be camped outside.....
Three George White clothing stores will open this weekend under a new name of Mega Motorcycle Store, after a deal was agreed between administrators and a private investor. Three clothing branches of George White, in Swindon, Bolton and Slough, will reopen under the Mega Motorcycle Store brand on Saturday 10 March and will be managed by former George White staff members. All of the remaining George White stock that was held by administrators has been bought by Mega Motorcycle Store, with the new retailer aiming to continue “the clothing and accessory bargains for which the Swindon-based dealer was renowned”. At present, there are no plans to sell new motorcycles although there will be an auction of more than 100 motorcycles that were held by George White before the retailer went under at the Swindon store on the opening day. Models can be viewed online or on viewing days on Thursday 8 March and Friday 9 March. Former George White director, Steve Gannicott was reported by Visor Down as saying: “It was truly heartbreaking to see George White go under - not just for me but for all the lads and lasses who worked so hard to try and pull things round when trading conditions got so tough. It was the clothing and accessory bargains that really kept the company going when it could no longer offer the generous discounts on new bikes that manufacturers previously allowed. “This new venture is going to concentrate solely on those clothing and accessory bargains that Britain’s bikers have become accustomed to. It’s really difficult to build a business plan around new bike sales at the moment because there’s so little confidence out there in the market. For now, we’ll concentrate on what we know works best for both the business and, of course, the customers.” The online store and the motorcycle auction lot is visible on Mega Motorcycle Store Online Shop - Helmets, Clothing, Leathers, Jackets, Gloves, Boots and Accessories
Oi my gears Frank Thomas.....its ok, in fact its pretty good..........................................for the price lol
There could be some huge bargains to be had in the motorcycle auction. I'm almost tempted to go pick something up to sell on later.
Gutted ! I've just moved from Swindon last week .... Bloody typical !! After some leathers and boots too ........
I was there ( Slough ). No bargains, same price like before they went into administration. You can buy the same stuff on the internet for the same price. Some of the Items were pretty messed up, so I didn't buy anything.
Katch from clevedon Motorcycles said yesterday a few 11 plate blades went for under 7k and one for 3.5k with 57 miles on it at Swindon GW
Can you just remove your threat because we all don't want to hear that ! ( Haaaaaa ) We all paid more....
I know I forgot about it but don't need anything either at mo and was busy but after hearing that wished I did pick up a new blade for that money
I knew it. Should have gone down with my credit card, put the bike straight on eBay and sold it before the bill came in.
