    Chris. I live in southport and I'm well known in the bike circles, I have not heard of this dealer/shop/supplier before ? What did you buy was it for a road bike ? There is a little shop opened a while ago on Bold street but he is mainly a moto cross shop. What's the phone number you have. I will know the area of the shop by the number

    I've just flicked through. That. , it's all emails and mobile number ? John ? All the pictures are taken discreetly too of the bikes for sale However !! The picture in the track day section of the corona Suzuki used to belong to and poss still does , a guy called quinny from CQ performance in southport

    Suggestion ! .......ring quinny 01704 563339 at his garage. Tell him your looking for Southport bikes !! He will defo know who what and where. Tell him you have seen one of his bikes in the picture

    Hope that helps

    He lists two contact numbers on the site - 07800752711 and 07980239494.

    Yell has the following listing:
    16, Sunny Rd, Southport, Merseyside PR9 7LU
    07980 239494


    Companies House register corroborates that address:
    SOUTHPORT BIKES LIMITED
    16 SUNNY ROAD
    CHURCHTOWN
    SOUTHPORT
    PR9 7LU
    Company No. 04694463

    Status: Active
    Date of Incorporation: 12/03/2003

    Next Accounts Due: 31/12/2011 OVERDUE


    So when you catch up with him, remind him to file his company accounts as they're overdue :p

    Bit unprofessional though to have just mobile numbers and your email address to be "@hotmail". Would put me off using them TBH...

    Don't make assumptions until you know the facts. That might be where he works from, or he might just be another biker with a self-built bike garage on the side of his house.

    He may have genuine reasons for not being contactable too - emergency, illness, accident, etc. etc. so whilst I understand your frustration always give someone the chance to explain before going in heavy-handed. Trust me - it's better to bite your tongue for a short while initially whilst you establish the facts than have to eat a big slice of humble pie. You'll feel a right tw*t if you go in kicking off and then find out there's been some sort of tragedy...

    Very sensible. And that's exactly how I would handle the situation. I don't do heavy handed But the pm chris send me states something ain't right, so I will just pop in as a courtesy call with my lump hammer in hand ! Lol
