Hi! I tried to email you, but it bounced back and your message box on HUBB is full. Do you have a new address? I'll be in Turkey in a couple of weeks and was wondering if you could fit me some new tyres?

THANK YOU BORA! great meeting up today and thank you for being such a good man. I did not specify the tyre size and a slight misunderstanding but you made it all good. Hope to pick them up tomorrow. Highly recommend this business.

Best wishes
James

Bora NOT in the business anymore --> Alternative contact

Hi all,

I just talked to Bora, unfortunately nowadays he left the motorcycle tyre business.
He recommanded me to another contact for motorcycle tyres:

Karayol Motosiklet Lastikleri · Sayfa · Motosiklet Bayisi · Cumhuriyet Mahallesi, 664. Sokak, No:2, Antalya, Turkey · +90 242 345 52 67 · info@karayollastik.com.


I have no personal experience with them, yet. Just wanted to leave the info.
BR to all

Membership - help keep us going!

Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.

You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
