I run DB Moto Repairs in Thirsk, North Yorkshire. Since my early teens I’ve been riding and repairing motorbikes. I’ve now been doing it for over 30 years and motorcycles are still my absolute passion.

I qualified in motorcycle repair and maintenance at East Yorkshire College, supported by Honda UK, specialising in electrical diagnosis and repair. I went on to become an apprentice machinist at a motor engineering and reconditioning workshop. In my twenties I moved on to manage a full scale motorcycle repair and workshop and raced a TZR125.

I set up my own workshop in Thirsk carrying out almost any repair from simple servicing and parts to full scale engine rebuilds 2T and 4T, single to multi cylinder.

I own a variety of road and track motorbikes, some of which I have rebuilt, restored and tuned and I race a TZR250 and GSXR400 videos of my racing are here ua-cam.com/channels/6gYcp05tWDSBNCr90yLOEg.html if you fancy a watch.
