Yes, this is something that has been posted on Bike Chat also, and has our full support. It's ridiculous                                                                                                                                                                             

Further info...   The bike has a 1996 frame with the numbers from the 2003 bike stamped into it. This stamp error was overlooked by D&K and the police are satisfied that there are NO charges to be brought. The frame from the 1996 bike was NOT stolen!!   The bike should have been SVA tested not mot'd and it should have been put onto a 'Q' registration or scrapped.   Quote from D&K motorcycles manager Mr Neesam: "I was unaware that the bike was put together in this manner however i was aware that it had been damage repaired.If Mr Holt wishes to have a refund we will be happy to do so, if he wishes to choose another bike then he is welcome to come and choose a replacement."   Mr Neesam & Mr Wilson from D&K were very keen to resolve this matter with a minimum of hassle.                                                                                                                                                                             

Something still not right with this. How could someof such experience miss such a thing?

hi matt hope you don't mind me posting this link paceparty.com thats for the last story on the bike from d&k                                                                                                                                                                             

It's way too late for DK now, they once had a good reputation, but that has been seriously if not permenatly tarnished and I hope it becomes the downfall of them. We do not need dealers like that damaging the good name of us bikers.
                                                                                                                                                                             

Dont think ill be buying a bike from them. Well, if I was gonna stay in the UK then I wouldnt buy a bike from them, lol                                                                                                                                                                             

PS: It's a shame that some people have had to find out the hard way about these *****!  RIP to the unfortunate fella.                                                                                                                                                                             

They are also in a legal battle with Honda. Apparently DK have been importing grey bikes from a dealer in the US which isn't allowed by their Honda franchise contract to sell outside of the US.

This is yet another dodgy operation by DK Motorcycles and I feel they won't be in buisness for very much longer. Good riddence I say.

hey wish my overdraught was as little as their salemans comission this month                                                                                                                                                                             

Yeah me too!
