Motorcycle Servicing Workshop

Is your bike due for its next service?

Learn what's covered in a standard service and how to do it yourself!

During this 4-hour workshop, the Machine Alley team will teach you how to perform a basic service, as well as check your bike for safety and maintenance issues so you can identify what you need to adjust, repair, or replace to make your bike a safe and roadworthy vehicle.

Whether you do your maintenance yourself or have it done professionally, understanding what work needs to be done on your bike will allow you to plan your mechanical work or let your mechanic know what issues have arisen since your last service. 

Also, this workshop is excellent for people buying a used bike. By understanding what maintenance needs to be done on a bike, you can more easily assess its value and the cost of getting it safely on the road.
