Paul Reynolds and son Charles are owners of the long-established Kickstart Motorcycles based in Port Talbot, Glamorganshire.
On the opening day of lockdown (Monday 23rd March), BDN reported the unique spirit that has shown through the dealer network in the UK.
A local nurse and regular customer of Kickstart Motorcycles phoned in needing urgent assistance getting to work after her scooter that had failed to start! Reynolds was on the scene within an hour with no call out charge, new battery fitted, and mission accomplished.
Today Reynolds updated BDN: “We have never been busier than in the last five months. Our Lexmoto delivery is arriving later today, with thirty 125cc bikes and scooters expected. Twenty-eight are already pre-sold.
“We missed out on selling the last two units after good customers had to cancel orders as they couldn’t wait any longer. The way it is going, I can see Lexmoto knocking Honda off top spot.”
