bike shops in london......

[stan the man]

going to london on wednesday(hospital appointment for the missus)and was wondering if there's any motorbike shops in or near to central london i could kill some time looking around,as wifey is going to be having tests done all day,and she says there's no need to be there while she's having them.

thanks in advance

You have:
Infinity at 137 High Holborn
Infinity at 171 Great Portland Street
BMW Park Lane at 77 Park Lane (why not book a test ride to kill the time). Also some proper posh car showrooms down there as well!
Metropolis Motorcycles - 59 Albert Embankment (opposite MI6 HQ)

If you have a bit more time - Chiswick Honda biggest dealer with the full range of everything Honda and a nice coffee shop to relax in. It is worth investing in a one day travelcard if you have the time to go to a few different places.

Hope all goes well with wifey.

cheers skiers mate..will look into the one's you've mentioned :bow: :bow:

Not tried the Infinity in Holborn, but the Gt. Portland St. one is good, bit like an old fashioned bike shop, loads of stuff crammed into a small(ish) shop. Staff pretty good too. At least they (and it) were at the end of last year when I was last in there.

If you're near Shoreditch/ The City try George White, Yamaha dealer with a good clothing section.

Metropolis is ok too, very near to Vauxhall tube station if I remember.

As Skiers says, get yerself a travel card and do the lot.

If I can think of any more I'll post again.

Since when has Infinity been a bike shop worth visiting anyway? :dunno:
Sheesh, Motorcyclists :}
As for Chiswick Honda
Stan, take my advice, jump on a number 11 (top deck) and enjoy the sites :beer: Hope the missus is ok BTW.

 

[stan the man]

There's Infinity in Clapham High Street too, and Hein Gericke near Stockwell tube (Just dahn the road from Infinity Clapham).

I guess it all depends on where you're going to be in London...
