I mainly use Graham Boyd's in broadmeadow. 2 minutes from Newy centre. Sell new and used quads, quite a few in stock too. All parts available, quad tyres etc.
Only open 1/2 day saturday though. And dont do too many favours price wise as well. And I have bought a lot of gear there too. Used to getting my regular customer discount when I was living down the Gong I suppose.
But of all the dealers close to town they are the pick in my experience with all the shops. _________________ TATTOOS DONE WHILE YOU WAIT!!!!!!!!!! |

Boyd's.......
GEEEEEEEEEEEEZZZZ GOOD LUCK!!!
Having known him and about him, and having worked in the bike industry in Newcastle off and on from 1987-1999, real wanker
you CAN do much better
every bike shop will get you 10% off gear..... if you ask
It was better when Suzuki was at Frazers
Just my 2 cents _________________ Don't JEW me................ok

I feel sorry for the employee's , they seem ok , but if you like lip service then mr boyd is the place to go.Frasers look after you if u buy their bikes , but newcastle kawasaki seem to have the best good customer service - unlike motormouth . |

I would avoid Boyds like the plague. Took my quad there and they charged me $180:00 for two hours labour and didnt fix a thing.
Got Erin from Fatcrank.com to come out to my house and he fixed it in 15 mins and charged me $80:00 including a new brake lever which he brought back the next day. _________________ Polaris Sportsman 90 |

When I go to Bike shops in Sydney,
they bring the Name Boyd up.
For all the wrong reasons
I am sure you could of got a better price on a quad, It's hard to screw them down on the phone,
Better to get a close price on the phone and then go in person to finalize the price. ( That coming from a reliative in the biz)
Cheers
