I live in Northern Ireland and making a distance purchase can be a nervous experience.
Having spotted the bike I was interested in I exchanged emails with Arran Bell, after receiving a couple of video's and torturing Arran with additional questions and requests I purchased the Motorcycle,
he was also able to arrange for the bike to be delivered to my door.
The bike was exactly as described and actually better than expected when seeing it in the flesh.
After a quick shakedown run I am confident with the purchase I made and delighted with the experience and service provided.
I would have no hesitation recommending The Potteries and Arran for your next motorcycle purchase

Very friendly and the salesman I dealt with, Arran, was knowledgeable especially about the Triumph I went to view. He'd owned two Tiger models so could genuinely tell me the pros and cons. Well set out and modern surroundings.

Attended their Kawasaki demo day.
Really friendly staff, super fun bikes. Great time had by all.
Free tea / coffee and cakes/pastries for anyone.
Most importantly, no sales pressure at all.

Absolutely brilliant place, had a great experience, I walked in looking for my first 125,I am 47 by the way, I was introduced to Arran who asked me questions to taylor fit my needs, I was shown various bikes and was encouraged to sit on and get a feel,Arran took a photo so that I could see the fit from the side which was helpful, I was conscious that I am an older chap looking for a 125 and didn't want to look a 'bit too young'
A bike was chosen and the deal was done,,
I was pleased that I was given good, relevant advice and didnt feel pressured or forced into 'just anything'
I came away feeling valued as a customer
Big thanks to Arran Bell, a real asset to the company
Kind regards

Fantastic store and service from start to finish. I bought a new KTM Duke 125 a couple of weeks ago. I went with Potteries Motorcycles as they had the Dukes at a discounted price and offered a really generous part ex price for my old bike. I dealt with Arran when buying my new bike who was really helpful, friendly and professional. On the day of swapping the bikes over my insurance company were a nightmare (Hastings Direct!) I was on hold for at least an hour only to then be told that they couldn't make the alterations to the policy, despite speaking to them a few days before, as their underwriters wouldn't insure me on the Duke due to only being on a CBT despite it being a learner legal bike. This obviously potentially could have been a bit of a problem at half two on a Saturday afternoon but Arran was a star and let me jump on his desk top computer so I was able to get onto Moneysupermarket and hey presto, 5 minutes later was insured and away.
The KTM is great, no regrets, would definitely use Potteries MC & S again without a shadow of a doubt and would happily recommend them to anybody.

After been messed around at a different dealership, we found the bike my son wanted here. I cant fault the helpfulness and customer service, and Charlene made it an extremely smooth and easy process. Would definitely recommend!

I recently purchased a KTM 1090 Adventure R from Arran. From start to finish i was made to feel welcome and valued by Arran. He was easy to deal with, punctual in getting back to me and very professional throughout the process. I was very relaxed and didn't feel pressured into buying as I have felt at other dealerships in the past. Can't recommend enough!

Had the pleasure of dealing with Aaron Bell at the Potteries when enquiring about a bike, Videos of the bike and all information/questions answered over a few phone calls due to distance I was away, he was happy to help and also assist plan my collection date.
At arrival was given a good demo of various functions on the bike by Aaron and he even helped load and secure it in my van.
I did have one small issue with the bike once home and this was very quickly rectified by Aaron and The Potteries team once making them aware, first class service and would highly recommend to anyone looking for a bike in the future.

I brought my bike from Rowan he was very helpful from the beginning on helping me choose the right bike for me.
I chose a ninja 650 at first and Rowan told me to have a test ride first as he thought by what I was looking for it would not tick all my boxes he was right I finally brought a z900 absolutely the right choice for me.
Went to pick it up on the Friday,so I changed the insurance around cut a long story short,Which I must stress was not potteries motorcycle ‘s fault (finance) company’s, did not pick it up so Rowan told me to leave my bike there I did the next he rang me and told me everything was sorted so he came in his own car to pick me up which he didn’t have to do.
Thanks Rowan
Would recommend them to anyone who is in the market for a new you will not be disappointed

Went for the Indian launch. Wasn't too busy and the staff were friendly. One of groups battery had died on the way in. Asked if they'd put it in charge. They did and didn't charge for it either. Would definitely go back

I travelled from south of Birmingham to visit this shop, and it was worth the trip.
Great guys, very knowledgeable, really friendly, one of the nicest bike shops I have been to in some time.
Thanks for the coffee and chat.
Superb range of mint low mileage bikes, and a few rare ones too.
Will definately be back, and wouldn't hesitate buying from these guys.
