Proper demo ride
I was very very interested in buying a 701 Enduro and so called these guys. Spoke to Dan Perry. Dan invited me to come and demo a bike almost identical apart from the colour with the knowledge I only wanted a 701 and with a view to him trying to get me one. Fowlers is a bikers dream! It's huge and has so many great bikes. My sights were already honed in on the bike I wanted or I could have perused the other bikes all day. I had a nice chat with Dan and also the guy near by looking after KTM. Dan gave me the keys to the bike and said I could take it out for up to 4hrs. On the phone he's said 'couple' which would also have been awesome but 4! Thank you Dan!! It was great to have this opportunity and helped with not stressing about trying to find Fowlers again after I'd been out on the bike. I took it out in full show room shine and brought it back so muddy you could hardly see the number plate. This was not an issue at all; it was only mud and it hadn't been dropped, marked or damaged in anyway but I still think this is very cool. The time a freedom to properly try out the bike was what I needed to know it was indeed the bike for me. Dan found a couple of 701's and so was able to offer me one to purchase. The bike sales guys were all nice dudes and knew their stuff. The clothing/accessories department had a decent amount of kit too and the sales dudes were all sound, the first wasn't a rider or have any real knowledge but I found another, a 23yld dude (sorry I can't remember his name) really knew their stuff was a lot of help. Big up Fowlers, I've already recommended you to friends who're looking for bikes... let's be honest, if you ride a bike you've always got an eye out and wishing for a larger garage ;) Happy hunting and riding ;)
