"Don't Waste Your Life Buying From David"

Resolving issues

You have seen the other reviews, believe them. My wife bought me a CB 400 Four Honda from David Whitaker (then based at 55 Curly Hill, but since moved) that was listed on eBay for my 60th birthday, I was told it would be checked and serviced before it was sent out to me. After a few weeks, the bike, which we had paid £4,000 for arrived, I was so excited... until I rode it that is. Within half a mile it was clear that the bike was unrideable, constant misfires. I spoke to David who sounded very pleasant and reassuring. I was told not to worry, they would get the bike sorted, or, I could get it done locally and they would pay!! I took the former, as I assumed that they would be familiar with the bike. I Identified a whole host of things wrong with the bike, some making it unsafe to ride. David reassuringly told me they would get it sorted within a couple of months. A year later, after a countless amount of broken promises and after arranging several delivery days which were cancelled by David on the day or the day before, I finally gave up hope. My patience had completely run out. I had lost money on items such as insurance, manuals, interest lost on not having my money in the savings account for a year, but after a bit of a wait (as if I hadn't waited long enough) I did at least get my initial payment back. I had given this man the benefit of the doubt, taken him at his word (he was very plausible and honest sounding), and now regret the whole sorry episode; still as with all things in life I will learn something from it. I am not truly sure which company he was selling from at the time of purchase, as the invoice was from DWT themotorbikefactory. Genuinely if you are thinking of buying a motorcycle from him, don't, spend your money elsewhere.

I purchased a motorcycle off this dealer, paid over the phone for delivery promised on numerous occasions it would be delivered on certain dates, it never turned up, when it was delivered 4 weeks after I had paid, the bike never ran properly, he collected the bike and assured me his mechanic would solve the issue & test ride it appropriately, after 4 months ! The bike was redelivered but only to have the same issues not to mention it looked like it has been stored outside for 4 months, when we contacted the dealer to raise our concerns, his words was find a Mechanic local to you & he would pay the invoice, my arse ! Just be warned when dealing with this bloke

Paid for the bike upfront 5.150.00 had to wait month for it to be delivered took these jokers 2 weeks to service and mot it. Then they said test rode it not pulling in 1st 2nd gear said it had to go to Aprilia to be fixed for new Ecu unit if ya believe that ya believe anything. My point is you part ex this bike did ya not check it was running properly lie thru their teeth. I’ve had 12 bikes over last 20 years never known anything like this load of shambles

"Open, honest and a pleasure to deal with"

Over the last couple of weeks I have travelled twice to buy a fantastic Honda goldwing from David Whitaker, in Curly Hill, Ilkley. The first time to view the bike and negotiate the deal - I was part exchanging another bike. The second time to collect the goldwing and pay the balance. For me that was a four hour round trip on both occasions. It was necessary for David to “go the extra mile” for me as some of the bike’s history was inaccurate. He needed to get paperwork to confirm this from a Honda dealer I noticed these errors on my first visit and David instantly telephoned the dealer concerned - crucially on speaker phone so I could hear both sides of the conversation.......this impressed me, as I found that to be open and honest. The dealer accepted that the error was theirs. David then had to “encourage” the dealer to put that in writing over the next week, so that I have a full record of the correct service history. I like to make my own judgements about the people I deal with and have found David and his son to be open, honest, tenacious on my behalf and fair. It has been a pleasure for me to deal with David and his son Thank you

"Deceitful, insincere and untrustworthy "

DO NOT TRUST 202 MOTORCYCLES THEY ARE NOT HONEST. Advertised a R1200GSA on Ebay with an entirely false beautiful picture. The bike in the picture was pristine and in immaculate condition. The bike delivered was full of corrosion and had been very heavily prepped (rusty nuts painted silver, corrosion sprayed over etc etc). All in all a really bad experience dealing with this lot and not one I'd want anyone else to suffer. So trade with this lot at your peril and don't part with any cash until you've thoroughly inspected and tested the goods. DO NOT TRUST THEM THEY ARE NOT HONEST.
