Motorbike Shop in Bournemouth?!!
Discussion
All,
It makes some sense to get a small bike in the immediate future to compliment our current flock of motors.
The thing is neither me or Mrs G are bikers in any way shape of form!
We will be doing the usual tests and so on but I am hoping someone here may be able to point me in the direction of a decent shop to get the gear and even one of the two wheeled menaces from in the Bmouth area?
We need a 50cc - 125cc jobbie really and something the wife can enjoy too so I'm not after a huge thundering bike.

I have only used one shop Bournemouth way but can't remember what it is called, I sold one of my bikes to them.
As breadvan has said, don't go for cheap stuff when it comes to protecting your body! Especially when it comes to helmets. Make sure your helmet fits properly too, anyone trying to sell you one should test how much it moves side to side etc. It shouldn't move very far at all, I see too many people get a helmet a size too big because it is more comfortable.
If you need bluetooth intercoms/headset or other accessories click on the link in my profile. Will do discount where poss for fellow PHers
ETA Click here for a dealer locator that will give you an idea of shops near you that you can then check out to see what sort of stock they have.

For the gear, look no further than Smart Riders on Barrett Road in Christchurch.
Speak to the owner - Chris, he's excellent at kitting out novice riders, he really knows his stuff.
You will find cheaper, but I whole heartly would not recommend that.
