What we do.

At Mean Machines, we build motorcycles with purpose.
From subtle upgrades to full custom builds, we work closely with you to create a bike that rides better, looks sharper, and feels truly yours.

Whether you’re chasing modern performance, classic style, or something wild and one-off — you’re involved in the process from concept to completion.

Quality parts. Honest advice. No shortcuts.

Fork Conversion & Front-end upgrades

One of the most popular upgrades we offer — and for good reason.

Modern fork conversions dramatically improve handling, braking, and rider confidence while giving your bike a more aggressive stance.

We specialise in fitting modern GSXR and similar front ends to classic and custom motorcycles, with options ranging from clean OEM-style finishes to fully custom, eye-catching setups.

Benefits:

Improved handling and braking performance
Modern suspension feel on classic bikes
Clean, safe, and engineered properly
OEM look or full custom styling

Wheel Conversion
& Swing Arm Upgrades

Upgrading wheels and swingarms isn’t just about looks — it’s about performance, geometry, and safety.

We handle everything from modern wheel conversions to swingarm upgrades, ensuring correct alignment, spacing, and suspension setup.

Done properly, these upgrades transform how a bike rides.

Custom Fabrication & Prototyping

If it doesn’t exist — we’ll build it.

This is ideal for custom projects where off-the-shelf parts just don’t cut it.

Reliable power matters.

We offer engine rebuilds, upgrades, and mechanical work to ensure your bike runs strong, smooth, and dependable.

Whether it’s refreshing a tired motor or improving performance, we focus on longevity and rideability — not shortcuts.

Paint, Finish & Detailing

The final touches matter.

We work with trusted painters and finishers to deliver high-quality paint, coatings, and finishes that suit your build — from understated classics to bold custom looks.

Every detail is chosen to complement the bike as a whole.
