What happened
Chester KTM Has Closed
Chester KTM stopped trading in 2024, caught in the same contraction of the UK KTM dealer network that took out several other long-standing showrooms. The Stanney Mill Lane site went dark. The phone went unanswered. The inventory listings slid off the web.
Landed here from the old chester-ktm.uk address? That is exactly why this page exists. The showroom has gone. Your KTM has not. The parts that keep it running are still made and still stocked — they now come in a courier box, not across a counter at Little Stanney.
Iron Offroad is an independent online KTM and motocross parts shop. No showroom on the Wirral, no service bays — we will not dress it up otherwise. What we do is narrower: get hard parts to riders across the North-West, usually inside two or three working days.
For the record. Iron Offroad is not affiliated with, and is not a continuation of, the former Chester KTM dealership. We are a separate, independent retailer. We took on the old web address for one reason — so riders searching for the closed dealership reach a working source of parts instead of a dead link.
For the record
The Chester KTM Dealership
For most of the back half of the 2010s and into the 2020s, Stanney Mill Lane was where North-West KTM owners headed. Just off the M53 on the Cheshire side of the Wirral, the Little Stanney site was an easy run from Chester, Ellesmere Port, Wrexham and across the bridge from Liverpool. Sales, servicing, a clothing wall, a parts counter — all under one roof, all on a 0151 number.
The Chester team had a reputation for taking the brand seriously. They ran the local KTM customer rides, kept a deep test-bike fleet from 125 Duke to 1290 Super Adventure, and in late 2022 built the 890 Adventure Dakar Edition that drew coverage from MCN, Adventure Bike Rider, Enduro21 and Motorbike Mag — a five-bike run that took its livery cues from the 2008 990 Super Adventure that contested Dakar.

Closed during 2024. These details are published as a historical record of the former business — the phone line and showroom no longer reach a trading dealership.
What did not change is the bike in the garage. Genuine KTM PowerParts and the deep aftermarket catalogue — Akrapovic, Renthal, Pro Circuit, Galfer, Wiseco, Wössner — are still made, still stocked. The only real difference is how you get them: ordered online, brought by courier, instead of collected from a counter on Stanney Mill Lane.
How we help
KTM Parts for North-West Riders
Iron Offroad stocks tens of thousands of KTM-fitment hard parts and consumables — genuine PowerParts where it counts, quality aftermarket where it makes more sense. Every part has fitment data attached, so you can be sure it suits your year and model before it goes near the basket.
Fast UK delivery
Most in-stock orders leave the same or next working day on a tracked courier. For a rider in Chester or across the Wirral that is the part on the doorstep in two to three days — usually quicker than the old round trip out to Stanney Mill Lane and back. Free UK delivery on orders over £100; below that it ships tracked.
Service items and consumables
The unglamorous kit that keeps a KTM through its service intervals — air filters, oil filters, brake pads, chain and sprocket sets, fork seals, spark plugs, coolant, fork oil. The stuff that wears out and gets replaced every season, especially in the salt-air patch between the Mersey and the Dee. Search the full category index or hit the relevant model page directly.
Real people on a real phone line
When a part number needs cross-referencing, or you are not sure a 2019 listing fits a 2022 frame, drop us a line. The contact form reaches people who ride and wrench on these bikes — not a call-centre script.
The catalogue
What We Stock for KTM Owners
Day-to-day service kit or a winter project — the parts side is covered. A few of the places to start:
Engine and drivetrain
Pistons and top-end kits from Wiseco and Wössner, clutch baskets and plates, chain and sprocket sets from Renthal and DID, gaskets, oil seals, cam chains.
Suspension
Fork seals and dust seals (the WP forks on every modern KTM punish neglect), fork springs, shock springs, linkage bearings and fork oil. Service work that used to be a Stanney Mill Lane workshop job is increasingly DIY — the parts side is covered here.
Brakes and controls
Galfer and EBC brake pads, discs, braided lines, master cylinders. Renthal bars, grips, levers, throttle assemblies, clutch perches.
Plastics, bodywork and graphics
Polisport, Cycra and UFO plastics for every recent KTM dirt and adventure platform. Front fenders, side panels, radiator shrouds, fork guards, number plates. Re-skin a tired bike for an afternoon’s work.
Find what actually fits
Quickest route to the right part: go via the model. All KTM parts, then drill down to the year and platform from there.
The build
The 890 Adventure Dakar Edition
In late 2022 the Chester KTM team built a five-bike run of 890 Adventures dressed in tribute to the 2008 990 Super Adventure that ran the Dakar Rally. Factory Moto Graphics out of Manchester drew the livery; the standard 2022 890 Adventure underneath got heavy-duty hand guards, a one-piece seat, the full graphics kit and KTM’s tech pack. Price out the door was £10,999 with the £750+ tech pack included.
Adventure Bike Rider, MCN, Enduro21 and Motorbike Mag all picked it up. Of the five built, one was pre-sold; one became the marketing lead’s own bike. The rest moved.
The bikes are still out there. If you own one, the service parts are the same as any 2022 890 Adventure — brake pads, chain and sprocket sets, fork seals, air filters, and the plastics if you went down. All under the 890 Adventure parts pages.

The Wirral: Birkenhead, Bromborough, Heswall, Hoylake, West Kirby, Wallasey, Neston.

Wherever the bike lives, the parts side works the same way: pick what fits, check the year, courier does the rest. No Stanney Mill Lane detour required. There no longer is one.
If you rode with Chester KTM
For Former Chester KTM Customers
A dealership closing is not just a shop closing. It is the staff who knew your bike on sight, the easy certainty that parts and a sensible second opinion sat a short ride away on a Saturday morning. An online parts shop is not a replacement for that, and we are not going to pretend otherwise.
What we can keep simple is the practical side. If Chester KTM serviced your bike, every service item and consumable they used to hand over the counter is still available here, shipped wherever you are — from Helsby across to Holywell, from Hoylake down to Whitchurch.
Got a part number that needs cross-referencing, or a fitment question the Stanney Mill Lane parts desk would once have handled? Drop us a line. And if you ride proper miles through the season, an Iron Offroad account unlocks the signed-in price on every order — free, no subscription, no membership card.
Common questions
Frequently Asked Questions
Is Chester KTM coming back?
No — not as the Stanney Mill Lane showroom. The wider UK KTM dealer network thinned out in 2024 and the Chester operation closed with it. The 0151 245 6769 line, the showroom floor, the parts counter — all of it went. What we can keep moving is parts, and that is what this page is for.
Where can I service my KTM near Chester now?
For franchised dealer servicing the nearest options shift across the Wirral and into Manchester depending on the model and year. For independent specialists, KTM owners across Cheshire and North Wales increasingly DIY the service-interval jobs — brake pads, chains and sprockets, fork seals, air filters — with parts shipped to the door. That is the gap Iron Offroad fills.
Do you sell whole bikes?
No. We are not a successor dealership and we are not connected to the former Chester KTM business. Iron Offroad sells hard parts and consumables for KTM, Husqvarna, GasGas and the wider MX / enduro / trail catalogue. New bikes go through KTM’s remaining UK dealer network; we do not touch that side.
Will you deliver to Cheshire, the Wirral and North Wales?
Yes — every CH, L, CW, SY, LL and the surrounding postcodes. UK delivery is free over our threshold; below it ships tracked. Most in-stock orders leave the same or next working day, so the part is usually on the doorstep in two or three days.
What about the 890 Adventure Dakar Edition Chester KTM built?
Five built; the FMG livery was a tribute to the 2008 990 Super Adventure that ran the Dakar Rally. One was the head-of-marketing’s own bike. They are still out there, still being ridden — if you own one and need service parts (chain and sprocket sets, brake pads, fork seals, plastics), the standard 890 Adventure part numbers all apply.
I had warranty work or a service plan with Chester KTM — what do I do?
Warranty handling for KTM bikes in the UK is administered through KTM UK’s remaining dealer network. Iron Offroad cannot honour or service prior dealership contracts; we are an independent parts retailer and were never connected to the closed business. KTM UK customer services is the right first call.
