Never been to the Potteries but the new KTM 1290 GT was a great price and the over the phone trade in price on my GIxxer 1000 was better than anywhere else.
The whole process went like clockwork thanks to the salesman Rowan and delivery driver Simon who was sat outside my house this morning at 9am ( Cumbria).
The guy in servicing who’s name I can’t remember and the lady on reception were also extremely helpful. Nothing too much trouble, highly recommended.

After wanting a KTM dealer in Stoke for some time now it's very satisfying to deal with the Potteries Motorcycles and Scooters. Having owned several KTMs and having to go further than I'd like before hand for servicing and sales it's nice to have my bike well looked after when in the workshop and purchasing parts and accessories is a please. The sales stafg are super friendly and helpful and have a no pressure environment. 5 stars well deserved.

Yes a fantastic experience from The Potteries i bought a scooter from them last year which i still love, Rowan described it perfectly, the same as the Honda CB650F as i've just bought from them last week. Arran and the boy's are fantastic honest guy's they live in the real world not just sales persons but tell you the truth . Potteries bikes are 100% trusthworthy and very nice guy's i like many others live in London and i did the trip twice over 2 years and i'd buy again and again well done and many thanks for all your hard work all the best, Anyone looking for a bike go to Potteries it's worth the journey cheers

I searched far and wide for a dealer that provided a warm welcome , a relaxed approach and a professional attentive service. I found it at Potteries Motorcycles. Craig and Arran were both knowledgable and friendly. I look forward to dealing with them and Potteries again in the future.

Great motorcycle showroom with some very tidy bikes. Open Sunday too ???? . Could do with a Cafe, to encourage riders to make a detour on a ride out.

Really pleased with the service from these guys. Arran looked after me in the purchase of a fairly unique bike, nothing was too much trouble. I would buy from then again.

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!

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.

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.

I recently came in to The Potteries Motorcycles & Scooters looking for a new bike now the weather's improving a little. I couldn't recommend the service highly enough! Arran helped me out from start to finish and the test drive was very helpful, top class service!

Purchased an as new Yamaha R1 from these guys, August 2019. Bike was purchased over the phone. When I collected it, I was very impressed with the large, professional shop. All the staff I met were helpful and professional and the bike was immaculate, as advertised. Easy to recommend these people!

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
Martin

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

Such a lovely store, well presented and professional. Me and my partner went in to buy a Honda Shadow and came out with EXACTLY what we were looking for and had a great experience!
Arron who we mostly dealt with was just lovely, down to earth, friendly, funny and approachable. Would 100% recommend this place and Arron as a salesman. Absolutely amazing place. :)
