GPR Exhausts now available in UK
MotoGP-derived systems now on sale through new distributor
ITALIAN MANUFACTURER are now available in the UK via Moto Legends, run by former Bridgestone and Micron front man Arthur Macdonald.
GPR have been in business since 1968 so know a thing or two about exhaust systems. For many years they specialised in scooter systems gaining a large following in all the key scooter countries. Their scooter products have long been available to the UK trade through scooter giants V.E.
In more recent years they have turned their attention to their Milan manufacturing base where everything is still produced (and largely hand made) have been turning out some very cool cans and full systems.
The Grand Prix Evolution range was developed during their time as technical partner to LCR Honda in Moto GP and was followed with collaborations with Konica Minolta and D’Antin Ducati in 2007.
Fresh for 2009 is a new company who plan to make GPR as popular here as it is its homeland.
“When GPR approached me after the unfortunate collapse of Micron I was very sceptical about the viability of a new player in what is a very difficult market," says Arthur.
"But with the focus on quality, innovation and perhaps most importantly value for money I’m convinced GPR will make a lot of friends in the UK. With the support of the world’s largest motorsport mail order company behind us to handle warehousing and deliveries customers can buy with confidence that every aspect of their purchase, from design to delivery is being handled by experts.”
