Merry Christmas 🎄

On Christmas Day, we want to say a genuine thank you to our customers for choosing MK1, and for the trust you place in us. It’s appreciated more than you know.

To our team, the people who keep MK1 running day in, day out, your care, skill, and commitment are what set the standard. We’re proud of the work you do and the way you do it.

If you’re spending today with family, friends, or heading out on the bike, we hope it’s a good one. Stay safe, enjoy the break, and we look forward to the year ahead.

Merry Christmas from all of us at MK1.

Father’s Day is a reminder of the moments that stay with you, like the years of Hattah Desert Race with our 6 kids. They would all pile in for the long drive to Mildura to cheer Mark on.

We had dust everywhere, long days, massive pride in the roles they would play in race support.

And most importantly memories that will last a lifetime.💖

That’s fatherhood, whether you are a biological dad, step dad or devoted uncle or friend.

Showing up, sharing what you love, and passing it on and spending time with them.

To all the dads out there raising kids, teaching them to ride, or just showing up in their own way…..

Happy Father’s Day from all of us at MK1

🧡 Happy Mother's Day from the MK1 crew!
To the mums who ride, wrench, support, and put up with the noise in the shed, today's for you.

Whether you're on two wheels yourself or the one behind the scenes making sure everyone else gets to ride, we appreciate you. Enjoy the sleep-in, the cuppa, or even a quiet moment to yourself if you're lucky.

A special shoutout to Kerry, who quietly keeps MK1 running behind the scenes. from Payroll to planning and everything in between. We'd be lost without her.

From all of us at MK1 — thanks for your work in helping to keep the wheels turning and Happy Mothers Day.👏🏼

A customer recently left a negative review after a carburettor job on a KTM.
What they didn't mention was that we invited them multiple times to bring the bike back so we could check everything over, AND THEY DECLINED every time.😵‍💫

We are super confident in our work, so we want to be transparent about this review and share our thoughts... We would love to hear yours.

The customer picked up his bike (he wanted it for Easter) and was told it might still need some tweaks. He was specifically asked to return it, if he was not 100% happy with how it ran.

INSTEAD: he refused, made no return visit, and went straight to slamming us online.

HERES THE THING: we'll always back our team (because we know they are the best in Melbourne) and stand by our work, but when something's not quite right, WE WANT TO FIX IT. That's how we've earned thousands of happy customers and near-perfect reviews. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

We're always open to feedback, and if something's genuinely not right, we'll own it and sort it. But when someone chooses to criticise our team publicly, rather than give us a chance to verify their claims (some of which don't line up with how the bike left here), it says more about their intent than ours.

If we make a mistake (we are all human), we learn from it and use it to grow.

If you're ever unsure about any work we have done or about any mechanic, for that matter, bring the bike back so at the very least it can be reviewed.
Give the business a chance to make it right. That's how grown-ups sort things out.

MASSIVE THANKS to the legends who support us, communicate openly, and understand that we're here to do the best job we can every time. We take pride in our business and are genuine in our efforts to provide Melbourne's best technical and customer service.
