    Good Perth Suzuki dealer?

    Seeing as my local dealers are a bit... ordinary, has anybody got a decent Suzuki salesman or dealership in their rolodex you could comfortably recommend?

    Wanting to place an early order, don't want to be jerked around.

    Thanks in advance

    Plenty of good Suzuki dealers around.


    The hard part will be finding a good Suzuki

    Avoid the one in Vic Park like the plague, last time I was in there was my worst bike shop experience ever.

    I've had good experiences with Lloyd Chapmans in North Perth
    In life you only get one lap, might as well make it a good one.

    Hmmm i avoid the one in Midland as I had some unhappy dealings with them, but I have had good experience with the Vic Park one (only ever spare parts purchases though, not service)

    Never tried Chapmans, might be closer to work so may be worth a go next time.

    Unfortunately, helping MAD is no guarantee you provide good customer service.

    +1 for Lloyd Chapmans.
    In complete darkness we are all the same. It is only our knowledge and wisdom that seperate us. Dont let your eyes deceive you.

    Ok, I'll amend my statement. I had a bad experience with one person there, I don't know what the rest of the dealership is like, I never bothered going back.

    I have nothing but good things to say about the Vic Park guys. I have had service/parts and looked for a bike there and they have always been friendly and helpful.

    let's face it, name a bike shop, or any shop for that matter, and someone will have had a 'bad experience' with them.

    Andy bought his 2006 Bandit from the Suzi mob in Vic Park, didn't have any hassles, and traded it in at the Suzi dealer in Midland, again with no hassles.

    I bought the new Gixxer from Lloyd Chapmans, all good.

    My order of preference;

    Lloyd chapmans
    Mob in midland
    Mob in vic park.

    I have my reasons, but I figure numbers (ie recommendations) would assist your decision more than stories

    +1 to most of that, i rang to get some pricing from vic park on a part and the quote price was outrageous to the quote price from Lloyds, then they affered me a PSB discount, granted that they know I am from PSB I didnt go yelling that I am

    Dubs - Loves a discount, but would prefer to pay full price and get ORSM service.

    Culloch's, Kree is a great chap but is restrained by his boss.
    His boss is a good reason for me to spend no $$ there.
    Lost my $$, Brendans $$, Gavins $$.

    Midland, they are always more interested in looking busy on the phone
    or playing on their PC as opposed to tending to customers or at least
    acknoledge a customers existance.

    I have no problem paying a bit more if you get good service.

    Just my own opinion from my experiences.

    yep, Savage in midland seem they don't want to speak to anyone. I went in there about 3 times in total and only once did someone come speak to me but couldn't wait to get rid of me and avoid helping me at all costs.

    Went into Lloyd Chapmans once just having a squiz around they were pretty helpful, and when I worked at toyota we sold Leroy a van to fit teh bike in and he was a very decent bloke. I'd vote for chapmans
