Honda dirtbike spares in UAE?
Hello
I have a CR250 stroker in KSA and need some spares. Is there a good dealer in Dubai/UAE you could recommend?

There are a few good workshops in Dubai (which you can find mentioned on older threads here) but they all get their OEM parts from the main Honda franchise: Trading Enterprises
Phone +971 4 3472212 and ask for the bike parts section.
If you're in town or have any problems speak to the main bike person, Rob Klugman.

Hi Stephan
No problem. That Rob is a good guy, emailed me when he got back from holiday.
I'm putting a list of parts together, work in (slow) progress
Regards

Just received a second set of spares from Rob's outfit, including stuff like throttle cables and a needle and gasket set for the carb. They ordered a lot of it direct from Japan and it was here in two weeks.
Nothing but praise for these guys, the most professional outfit I've come across in the ME.

I totally agree. The bike scene in Dubai has grown enormously but Rob has always kept in touch with his customers and on many occasions taken new riders out for free desert training.
Yesterday, he was kind enough to bring several training bikes (125s running on idle with throttles disconnected) to the college where I work to help raise awareness in our road safety campaign.

If you see him again can you pass on my sincere regards, Stephan?
And to his guys in the parts ection, especially Satheesh.
He's a lifeline for us guys here in Saudi.
