Located at 25 Catherine Street Frome; Difazio’s are without question one of the UK’s oldest and best known motorcycle shops.
The business - founded in 1914 by a young Italian Pascal Difazio – today specialises in the sales, restoration and spares for air cooled BMW twins and is run by former national class road racer Richard; grandson of the founder.
A firm believer in the saying that motorbikes are for riding Richard has - in addition to his racing exploits - covered many thousands of road miles in both the UK and Europe; often putting the latest modification through the fullest test on the long legged twins.
Certainly over the years the BMW’s have earned an enviable reputation for both their longevity and durability, facets well mirrored in the Difazio business today.
Over ninety years in which the business has sold and serviced not only BMW but BSA and Brough Superior’s and a huge diversity of other makes. Nine decades in which we’ve welcomed countless numbers of fellow motorcyclists through the doors of 25 Catherine Street.
