The Hogfather

The Hogfather Motorcycles bring you the best engineering services that the Northwest has to offer.

Then there’s our show winning Project Work, only real limitations are your imagination and budget, but our value added in house design team can model your new custom build virtually, before the physical build saving a huge amount or time and money. Yes there are huge ranges of off the peg frames, but if there’s one that can’t be got we’ll build one right down to the greatest detail to suit your specific requirements. We offer a huge range of precision engineering machine work, sheet metal fabrications, all forms of welding and brazing, plus GRP and Epoxy moulding – as the saying goes – from mild to wild – drop in or give a call
