Routine Servicing

Servicing based on mileage, age and use

Regular servicing helps keep a motorcycle reliable and can identify developing problems before they become more serious.

Depending on the bike and its service schedule, maintenance can include:

  • Engine oil and filter changes
  • Air and fuel filters
  • Brake and clutch fluid
  • Coolant checks and replacement
  • Spark plugs
  • Chain condition, adjustment and lubrication
  • Drive components
  • Tyres and pressures
  • Battery and charging-system checks
  • General inspection for leaks, wear and deterioration

Where manufacturer service information is available, we use that as the basis for the work and take the bike's age and recent history into account.

MOT Preparation

Checks and maintenance before your motorcycle MOT

We can inspect suitable areas before MOT testing and deal with routine maintenance issues that could otherwise lead to a failure.

Common items include tyres, lights, brakes, steering, suspension, chain condition, number-plate requirements and visible signs of leaks or damage.

If a fault needs diagnosis or repair rather than routine maintenance, we can either investigate it or direct you to our dedicated motorcycle repair service.

Seasonal Maintenance

Getting your bike ready after winter or storage

Motorcycles that spend long periods unused can develop problems even when they have covered very little mileage.

Batteries weaken, fuel can deteriorate, tyres lose pressure, brake components can stick and fluids continue to age while the bike is stationary.

Before returning a stored motorcycle to regular use, it is worth checking the basics properly rather than assuming low mileage means nothing needs attention.

We can inspect and service bikes before the riding season and advise if further work is required.

Older & Specialist Bikes

Maintenance for motorcycles that need a more individual approach

Older motorcycles do not always fit neatly into a modern fixed-service package.

Carburettors, older ignition systems, mechanical adjustments and age-related wear can all require a more hands-on approach.

We can carry out routine maintenance on suitable older bikes and identify whether a problem is simply service-related or needs more detailed repair work.

For older motorcycles returning to the road after long-term storage or requiring wider work, see our classic motorcycle restoration service.
