Best service experience I’ve had for any bike
Aside from carrying out a full service on my Norton 961, sorting issues of varying magnitude and upgrading parts where necessary, Stu found and rectified defects I didn’t suspect. All backed up with excellent communication at every stage, just suggestions and discussions- no pressure, no nasty surprises. The bike arrived back renewed and the after service is also excellent with support and advice readily available. Approachable is exactly right and I doubt there are many as knowledgeable on the 961 as Stu.
I do a few bits & pieces myself and though it costs to ship the bike, I wouldn’t trust or consider anyone else for servicing or surgery.

The only one I would trust
Would highly recommend, absolutely the font of knowledge for all things Norton. Fantastic attention to detail, great coms on the work required and updates. Without question the only one I would trust with my pride and joy.
A good few months on now and I wanted to give Stuart a shout out again, I did my first 120 mile round trip on the Norton this week and it is transformed. My purchased from new 2020 961 always ran like a pig even after a dealer service (no names but they were supposed to be a Norton dealer) and I never trusted it. However since Stuart did his magic even on this long run it was transformed! Runs like a dream. Stuart really know his stuff!

Highly recommend Motorvated!
I had a very positive business exchange with Stuart. He is a straight up guy!
I’m in Canada, and Stuart came to my rescue with 961 Norton parts he had being saving.
His responsiveness and advice were top shelf!
Highly recommend Motorvated!
We need more businesses with Stuart’s integrity.

He’s worth his weight in gold
Stuart has looked after my Gen 1 Norton V4SS JPS since he started his fantastic business . . .
He’s a fountain of knowledge about all aspects of Donnington Nortons and also other machines too . . .
His work is exemplary, he treats every bike as his own and is so thorough in his work. Stuart’s attention to detail is second to none and his commitment too . . .
The times that my V4SS has been to Stuart it has been work on with passion and due diligence to the most exacting standards . . .
I don’t take or trust anyone else to work on my Norton V4SS JPS . . . Stuart at Motorvated Ltd deserves nothing but absolute success in his business venture . . . He’s very talented and knowledgeable about the brand etc.
He’s worth his weight in gold . . .
I’d while heartedly recommend Motorvated Ltd for any works needed on your beloved Norton or other branded machine

Stu’s attention to detail Is unbelievable
Just got my bike back from stu it was in for a full service and a new set of shoes which was a cracking price. stu’s attention to detail Is unbelievable he ended up fully cleaning the entire bike to showroom standard and done bits to the bike that no other place you have ever done, let alone at no extra cost. I will 100% be bringing my bike back for any work that needs doing in the future. thanks again mate!

I new then my bike was in good hands
Took my commando 961 to Stuart, it wasn’t running and needed its first service, Stuart had the bike up and running pretty much as soon as he had taken it in. I was kept updated with videos and commentary, I new then my bike was in good hands, it was very much a personal service from start to finish. As well as the service and fix, Stuart updated various Chinese relays and sensors with superior Bosch parts. For those of us who are lucky enough to own such beautiful bikes and want them looking after,

It is now running better than new
Us 961 owners – particularly the pre-TVS ‘Donnies’ are so lucky to have Stu to support us. Just had a major engine rebuild with a few improvements along the way and it is now running better than new I am so delighted with the quality of the work and he is such a likeable guy. If you do visit just beware of the Killer Rabbit…

Great service from a top class bloke.
I sent my bike for its first service as I wanted someone who knew what they were doing and after some research it became apparent that Stu is a bit of a guru when it comes to modern Norton’s. His communication and knowledge has been superb throughout and I now have confidence that my bike will run well and is set up correctly.

Great problem solving to isolate and identify a problem with follow up fix. Also solved an issue with sppwdo and abs warning light that the original supplying dealer had tried to fix and failed. Very expert and great service. Jonathan, norton 961 owner.

Great attention to detail
Had my Commando serviced by Stuart yesterday and couldn’t be happier with the work he did. While he was doing the service sorting out issues I didn’t know were there, replacing hoses and parts that were showing signs of age. Great attention to details and very knowledgeable.
