Engine and gearbox rebuilds

Strip-down, inspection and rebuild to spec, bench tested before it goes back in.

Engine and gearbox rebuilds

The heart of a motorcycle deserves expert care. Whether it is a vintage twin or a modern multi-cylinder, the work is the same: patience, precision and pride.

Full engine rebuilds

  • Complete disassembly, inspection and cleaning
  • Bearings, seals, gaskets, piston rings and valves replaced as needed
  • Crankshaft truing and balancing
  • Cylinder head work: valve lapping, seat cutting, shimming, reassembly
  • Torque and clearances to manufacturer specification
  • Bench tested before it goes back in the frame

Wear over time, an oil leak, or a full restoration project. Engines are rebuilt to run as well as new, or better.

Gearbox rebuilds and repairs

Smooth gear changes depend on precision.

  • Gears, shafts and selector forks inspected and assessed
  • Worn or damaged parts replaced
  • Re-shimming and bearing replacement
  • Reassembled and tested for clean engagement
  • Oil seals and gaskets renewed throughout

Classic manual boxes and modern constant-mesh systems both. Jumping out of gear, rough shifting and worn bearings are the usual suspects.

What every rebuild includes

  • An inspection and an estimate before any work begins
  • Genuine or high-quality replacement parts
  • Every component cleaned properly
  • Assembly to torque and alignment specifications
  • Oil fill and test rotation at the end
