The MACHINE SHOP EXPERIENCE is returning to MOTORCYCLE LIVE 2024 bigger and even more exciting this year!

We are introducing a brand new “HOW IT’S MADE”-style feature where you can create your own “part” by following the step-by-step machine shop conveyer belt! Have a go at WELDING, SANDBLASTING and POWDER COATING, all while making something that you can take home with you to show off your new skills!

At our stand, you can also learn to change a tyre and enter our fun and very competitive TYRE CHANGING SPEED CHALLENGE, where the fastest person each day will win a prize and then the fastest out of the 9 winners gets an even bigger prize at the end!

THE-MACHINE-SHOP EXPERIENCE is entirely FREE and suitable for everyone!

Over at the EXPERT LAB stage Bob and Maria will be showing you the in and outs and telling you everything you need to know about your motorcycle! You can watch, ask questions and even take part in our demonstrations, which will be including topics such as: Motorcycle Suspension Set Up — Motorcycle Tyre Changing — Basic Motorcycle Maintenance — Motorcycle Servicing & Becoming a Home Mechanic!

But that’s not all! You can be the first ever to witness the setting of a brand new (UNOFFICIAL) WORLD RECORD for the fastest motorcycle assembly on stage! Everyday THE-MACHINE-SHOP TEAM will be practising taking apart and putting back together a motorcycle on the main stage, culminating in the final record setting on Sunday, the 24th of November!

Make sure to pop over and get stuck into our hands-on features, talks and activities!

Only by THE-MACHINE-SHOP and only at MOTORCYCLE LIVE 2024! 

What is THE-MACHINE-SHOP? At our core we are a pay-to-play DIY workshop, based in Hinckley, where you can come in and take a full advantage of our wide range of facilities and equipment. Whether it’s a bike, car or a side hobby for some extra cash, you can tackle any project at THE-MACHINE-SHOP. We are open till 11pm, 7 days a week. And if you want to learn some new skills, you can always book one of our classes in welding (all types and all skill levels), machinery, bike servicing and more.
