Chris Bowness recommends The Potteries Motorcycles & Scooters.
May 8 ·
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.

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.

Just bought a bike from this shop, and I can say I would highly recommend them. Everything from phoning about a bike to having it delivered, was very quick and highly professional. An absolute pleasure to do business with

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.

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!

My KTM went to Potteries Motorcycles for some warranty work. Andy and Danny in the service department were superb, despite being swamped with work due to the pandemic, they got my bike sorted and kept me informed every step of the way. Highly recommended

Staff were extremely helpful and understanding, as I'm young and still going through the a2 licence. Normally staff just ignore you but here they took the time to make sure I was informed on the bikes and even let me sit on a couple (where at other places I've just been told no) highly recommended for bikes of all experience levels. Will definitely be returning. Keep up the good work.

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.

Dealt mainly with Craig, the Dealer Manager and found him and all the staff very helpful and accomodating, particularly the Lead Technician Andy, who was very patient in adding my accessories to my new bike. Craig gave me a very fair price on my part exchange and a keen buying price for my new ZZR1400PS. No grey areas or empty promises, just a straightforward honest deal with good old fashioned customer service. On my experience I would recommend wholeheartedly and it's a refreshing change to have no insulting p/x offers or smoke and mirrors I've experienced elsewhere. Very impressive showrooms and bike stock too.

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 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
