Personalise Your Ride And Unlock Its Full Potential
Engines Rebuilds & Overhauls
Restoring power, reliability and performance
Classic and vintage bikes often need a full engine strip-down — replacing worn bearings, seals, pistons, or valves. This brings old motors back to life and ensures they run smoothly for years to come.
Frame & Chassis Restoration
Strenthening the foundation of the bike
Frames, swingarms, and subframes are stripped, checked for cracks or rust, straightened if necessary, and refinished (often powder-coated). This not only improves safety but gives the bike a showroom-fresh appearance.
Cosmetic Restoration - Paint, Chrome & Trim
Bringing back the original shine
Tank and fairing resprays, wheel refinishing, polishing, and chrome plating are some of the most common restoration jobs. These upgrades revive the bike’s classic looks and add value — especially important for vintage machines.
