Buying New and Used Jap bikes in Quetzaltenago, Guatemala
For anyone interested in buying enduro or used Japanese bikes out of Quetzaltenago, Guatemala there is only really one shop that can help you out. We have been to just about every dealer and come across "Solomotors", located on Calle 7a between Zone 2 and 3 near Avenida Jesus Casitllo.

They are probably the only shop around that you would trust to service a high powered Jap bike (trainl or raod) however charge hefty prices. Its not the best place to buy a used bike, they are expenisve, however the only ones around that even have them.

The Yamaha dealership on Diagonal 3, 3- 92 Zona 1, Quetzaltenango owner (Fransisco Rios) speaks english and is really helpful. He knows his bikes. Call 7763 0086.

Cheers,
Sharna

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.
