Findlaters Yamaha has been Balclutha's Yamaha dealer for over 50 years, and its website says it covers the farm, the forest and the front lawn. The shop at 11 Clyde Street sells new and used Japanese motorcycles, including ATVs, side-by-sides, agricultural bikes, off-road and dirt bikes, and kids' bikes. It also sells ride-on mowers, including STIGA, LawnMaster lawnmowers, chainsaws, line trimmers and leaf blowers. Used bikes and mowers are serviced before sale. The workshop services Yamaha, Suzuki, Kawasaki and Honda motorcycles, along with ride-on and push mowers. Alistair and Jordan have owned the business since November 2018, and the shop can be called on (03) 418 0527.
Customers say the staff are helpful and knowledgeable, the service is great, and the shop had what they needed. Forestry work is a big part of the business: the shop sharpens and replaces chainsaw chains and harvester bars, and stocks safety gear and oils for it. Within a kilometre there is one other motorcycle shop, Powerzone Motorcycles, and the other shop with 10 or more reviews nearby does not rate higher than this one. Our pick in Balclutha for a motorbike or chainsaw job from people who know the local farms and forests.
