Frequently Asked Questions

 At Riding Rubber, we specialise in sports bikes, track bikes, motocross, enduro, and high-performance road bikes. We also service adventure, touring, and commuter bikes. Whether you ride dirt, road, or track - we’ve got you covered. 

 You can book online directly through our website or by calling us on 0481 962 890. A $50 booking deposit is required to confirm your appointment - this goes toward your total service cost. 

 We’re open Monday to Friday, 9:00am to 5:00pm. However, the workshop may be unstaffed during these hours if we’re working at the track - so call ahead to make sure we’re in. 

 Yes - we tune track and race bikes.

If you're looking to tune a street bike, we’re not the right fit. Our tuning services are focused exclusively on performance setups for track and race applications, where we can deliver the most value and precision.

If you’re unsure whether your bike or setup qualifies, feel free to get in touch and we’ll point you in the right direction.

We do our very best to keep our pricing structure transparent and accurate. You’ll often see our services listed as “plus parts” - and there’s a good reason for that. It allows us to keep the base service cost as low as possible while giving you flexibility and control over the parts used.

For example, consider a YZF-R1 versus a YZF-R6.
The R1 requires 4.1L of oil, while the R6 only needs 2.6L.
A minor service with full synthetic oil on the R1 would cost $398.50, whereas the same service on the R6 would be $359.50. The time and labour involved are exactly the same - the only difference is the cost of parts.

Now imagine the difference for something like a Honda Grom, which takes less than 1L of oil!

This approach also gives you more freedom of choice when it comes to parts - whether that’s selecting semi-synthetic or full synthetic oil, or choosing between steel and aluminum sprockets. We’ll always provide recommendations based on what’s best for your bike and riding style, but the final decision is yours.

In short, we’re here to work with your budget and your bike - not against them.
