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.

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

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 Laughing .

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.

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
Luke
