Kawasaki Dealer in Lima

Hi guys,

I'm heading now to Lima and i'm searching for a Kawasaki dealer. I need new break pads and tires. And my oil leaks from the counter shaft ...i guess the bike need a inspection.

Can anyone recommand me a dealer or a good garage?

Thanks a lot!

Talk with Ricardo at Moto Performance Peru.

He really helped me out when I was in Lima. He's fluent in English too. Great guy and good mechanics (who work on large import bikes). My bike never looked as clean as the day it left his shop!

It's located in (or right next to) The Miraflores section of town (big tourist area). I remember looking for the street "Republic de Panama" and it was surely named something else but locals will know what you're looking for.

I know this thread is a few years old now but if this comes up in anyone's search then know that Ricardo is still there and is incredibly helpful!

Just thought I'd update that Ricardo has sold this business. I dealt with one of the new owners, Felipe. Great guy. Had them do some routine maintenance on my bike. They had a bit of a delay getting the parts from the dealer but we're very attentive on the matter and even sent picture updates.

The business is soon to become:
