New Challenge for Us

The beginning of 2023 saw new customers take delivery of their bikes along with our loyal customers treating themselves to new motocross, enduro and road bikes. The summer warmth really encouraged the road riding and many of our bikes have been across Europe and beyond, exploring the Alps, South America and numerous foreign roads. As we see every year, riders move back towards the dirt in autumn when there is mud and puddles on the trails.

This year we have trained and delivered an unprecedented number of new riders through our Training School and we are very proud to have supported these motorcyclists of the future. Those of us from a certain era were born to ride, but these days there is a reduction in the take up of two wheels, so we must do our bit to make sure they enjoy motorcycles as much as us, but with much better training than we had.

Our off-road track near Swaffham, Hit the Dirt has again been the invaluable training ground for both enduro racers and beginners alike, with another great year of riding development despite being closed a couple of times due to the recent heavy rainfall.

Our Rackheath showroom continues to offer new road and off-road models from Rieju, Fantic and commuter bikes from Kymco. After 24 years as a KTM dealer we can confirm the rumour that this chapter is now drawing to a close. It has been a privilege to be a founding dealer for KTM in the UK and see the brand grow globally, however it’s now time for a change and a new challenge for us. On this note, we are pleased to confirm that we are now also the Sherco dealer in our region so please come and talk to us about your next new motocross, enduro or trials bike.

Our workshop at Rackheath is here for your servicing, MOT, tyres and suspension upgrades. Did you know that we are K-tech specialists and can transform your ride whether off-road, road or race bike?

Follow the link or come and talk to us to explore this popular enhancement.

Wishing you all best wishes for the New Year, when we look forward to welcoming you at the Showroom, the Training School or Hit the Dirt.

What a busy time

What a busy time it has been this year at Dave Barkshire with happy customers on their new bikes. 

Throughout this
summer there have been a lot of eager riders undergoing motorcycle training at our dedicated centre, with some fantastic results across CBT, Mod 1 and Mod 2 riders with great success.  

And of course, you can visit our Motorcycle Centre on Rackheath to buy a brilliant new or used bike that suits you. It’s been great to hand over keys to many proud new owners over recent months.  

As we go into autumn we hope to meet more of you keen riders, whether it’s to purchase that new machine, some up to date motorcycle gear, or even give your trusted bike a bit of a service.

Riding High

Introducing the Fantic Integra XMF 1.7 Mountain E-Bike 2021. This is the bike that puts the ‘mountain’ into mountain bike by taking riding to new heights. Take to the hills, flying up and down with ease, or tackle those trails in true enduro style.

With it’s mullet design (not talking hair here) meaning that the front wheel is bigger than the rear, the Fantic XMF 1.7 offers great agility and control.

With a Class 1 e-bike, power is delivered while you pedal, whereas the Brose S-Mag motor provides continuous power. E-bikes are the way to go!

Throughout June, July and into August there have been many eager riders undergoing motorcycle training at our dedicated centre, with some fantastic results. Across CBT, Mod 1 and Mod 2 riders emerged triumphant.  

And of course, you can still come along to our Motorcycle Centre in Rackheath to buy a brilliant new or used bike that suits you. It’s been great to hand over keys to many proud new owners over recent months.  

As we go into autumn we hope to meet many more of you keen riders, whether it’s to purchase that new machine, some motorcycle gear, or even give your trusted ride a good service.

Keys To A Great Ride!

 

The Dave Barkshire Motorcycle team have been working hard this year, be it a bit differently at times, to provide key services for all you avid motorcycle riders out there.

 

We endeavoured to provide MOT slots and workshop services for key workers throughout March, April and beyond. Remember we’re here to give your machine a full service, as keeping your bike in A1 condition is key to its performance and your safety.

 

Although our popular Hit The Dirt track was closed for a time, we were delighted to re-open it in July. You can still enjoy all the thrills and spills that the Enduro circuit has to offer, but by appointment, and whilst being mindful of current guidelines that are key to giving everyone a safe and enjoyable time. For more information visit www.facebook.com/HitTheDirtUK

 

And of course, you can still come along to our Motorcycle Centre in Rackheath to buy a brilliant new or used bike to suit you. It’s been great to hand over keys to many proud new owners over recent months, even if we now tend to bump elbows rather than shake hands.

 

We hope to see you soon to pick up your new dream machine from us – with an ‘elbows, keys and a boomps-a-daisy’!

Many Thanks

A big thank you to all of you who came to our 35 year celebration day on Saturday! We all had a great time and hope you did too.

We're pleased to announce that the event made over £500 for Children's Acute Transport Service (CATS), which gives intensive care support on the road to sick children. A great service that we're glad to help.

It was good to see so many turn out to enjoy the demo rides, raffles and tasty BBQ. Marion remarked, "Well done David and your team. I had a really nice afternoon... food was amazing!" Whilst Martin commented, "Nice to see a good turn out".

A mention must go to Alex for all his hard work in bringing the day together and to Aaron and James for their ongoing support.

Thanks to all of you, not just for sharing in Saturday's celebration, but for your friendship and custom over the last 35 years - long may it continue!

You're invited to the big event of the year!

Help us to celebrate 35 years in the business on 9th June from 9.30am to 5.00pm at the Dave Barkshire Motorcycle Centre, Rackheath Industrial Estate NR13 6LH.

Hark back to the time when a loaf of bread cost just 35p, by enjoying our delicious BBQ at 1983 prices.

We have goodie bags, we have refreshments, we have demo rides (prior booking required) and we have great anniversary savings. There’ll also be competitions throughout the day with chances to win a FREE CBT, Enduro kit and much more!

Our spectacular range of motorcycles will leave you dazzled and delighted – check out our full KTM Street Bike Range.

Hang out with the Dave Barkshire Crew and get insider information from some great bike boffins. Rub shoulder with some of the industry’s leading representatives – KTM, Santander, Tri Motive, Dunlop and Maxxis.

Not only will you have a great day, but you’ll feel good knowing that all proceeds will be donated to charity.

It's just too good to miss!

What A Year!

Well, 2017 turned out to be a very busy and eventful year for the Dave Barkshire Motorcycle Centre, our Motorcycle Training facility and the popular Hit The Dirt Practice track.

Our Rackheath Motorcycle Showroom underwent a major revamp with impressive results, and we were pleased to celebrate its completion with many of you back in November. You may have seen the event promoted on Facebook by Dave’s alter egos ‘Disco Dave’ and ‘Ringmaster Dave’. Be sure to keep abreast of our Facebook page for all our latest news and bike offers. Thank you to all of you who came along and helped to make our Open Night Spectacular a great success. We hope to see much more of you in 2018!

Over the year, a large number of successful riders passed through our purpose-built, Salhouse based Motorcycle Training facility, with passes achieved at all levels. The year ended with mod 2 passes from Fay and Martin, whilst 2018 has started with passes by Amanda, Tom and Joe. We offer training courses suitable for all abilities, so make this the year you achieve your motorcycling goals.

 

At the Hit The Dirt practice track in Swaffham, we were pleased to introduce a new refreshment area for 2017, serving hot and cold food and drinks. This has proved very popular, keeping riders fuelled up to enjoy our great forest tracks. If you’ve not tried our fantastic Enduro track, be sure to put it on your to-do list for 2018. Fans of Enduro may also have enjoyed the action of the Dave Barkshire 2-Man Enduro championship, which produced lots of excitement during its four rounds organised by Sudbury, Diss and Woodbridge Motorcycle Clubs. http://www.hitthedirtdb.net/

We’re looking forward to lots more fun and action in 2018, so be sure to keep up with all our latest news and offers to be involved!
