Classic British Motorcycle Workshop
CLASSIC BRITISH MOTORCYCLE WORKSHOP | AUCKLAND
Workshop work for Triumph, Norton and BSA motorcycles.
Angloclassics carries out servicing, fault-finding, recommissioning and more involved mechanical work on classic British motorcycles.
Most jobs involve British twins and triples from the 1960s and 1970s. Work is taken on when the motorcycle, the job and current workshop capacity are a good fit.
THE WORKSHOP
Work shaped around the motorcycle
Some bikes need a service and a few faults traced. Others have been standing for years, arrive partly dismantled or need major mechanical work. The starting point is the condition of the motorcycle and what the owner wants to achieve.
Recommissioning
Motorcycles returned to use after storage or a long period off the road. Work may include inspection, fluids, fuel system, ignition, charging, brakes, tyres, controls and road testing.
Servicing and fault-finding
Routine maintenance, tuning and diagnosis of starting, running, charging, oiling and general reliability problems.
Carburettors and fuel systems
Cleaning, rebuilding, setup and synchronising, along with fuel taps, lines, tanks and related faults.
Electrical and ignition
Charging faults, ignition problems, wiring repairs, poor connections, lighting and selected rewiring work.
Engine, clutch and gearbox work
Oil leaks, top-end and engine work, clutch problems, primary drive issues, gearbox adjustments and rebuild work where required.
Brakes, suspension and running gear
Brake work, wheel and bearing checks, forks, shocks, steering, controls and other items that affect how the motorcycle rides and stops.
MORE INVOLVED WORK
Rebuilds, restorations and unfinished projects
Angloclassics also takes on selected engine and gearbox rebuilds, full recommissions, incomplete restorations and motorcycles that have stalled partway through a project.
These jobs are assessed individually. The condition of the motorcycle, missing parts, previous work and the intended finish all affect the scope.
HOW A JOB STARTS
A clear starting point before the bike arrives
01
Send the details
Include the make, model, year, current condition, known faults, work already attempted and clear photographs.
02
Initial assessment
The motorcycle and requested work are reviewed to decide whether the job suits the workshop. An inspection may be needed before the full scope is clear.
03
Agree the next stage
Work can be discussed in stages where appropriate, particularly on older bikes with unknown history or projects that may reveal further problems.
COMPLIANCE AND WOF
Mechanical preparation before inspection
Imported and recommissioned motorcycles can be checked and mechanically prepared before compliance or WOF inspection. This may include identifying faults, completing required repairs and helping organise the next steps.
Final approval remains with the relevant certifier or inspection authority.
A GOOD FIT
The bikes that suit the workshop
The main focus is Triumph, Norton and BSA motorcycles from the 1960s and 1970s, particularly British twins and triples. Selected earlier, later or less common British bikes may also be considered.
The workshop is not aimed at modern motorcycle servicing or urgent same-day turnaround. Space is limited, and longer jobs are booked around current projects.
ASK ABOUT WORKSHOP WORK
Send through the motorcycle details
Include the make, model, year, current condition, the work required and a few clear photographs. This makes it much easier to assess whether the job is suitable before arranging a visit.
