JOHNS ENGINEERING LTD.

THE PROFESSIONAL ENGINEERS;

THE RIGHT CHOICE FOR A PROFESSIONAL JOB!

This all began many years ago when we were boys who wanted to go fast, and “old junk” was what we could afford. No-one wanted it back then, so we had plenty of material to learn on, both cars and bikes: - learning how to keep things going is what launched us on our Engineering careers!

First motorbike, first ridden age 12; recently restored after more than 40 years of storage in bits. The picture on the right is the “before” - we always kept plenty of spares for this.......

Some of our other bikes.

We will take on ANY motorcycle related job, no matter how bad the condition is: we won’t turn anything away. As  Professional Engineers we can cope with all aspects including engines, frames, forks, gearboxes, electrics etc, including repair or remanufacture of unobtainable parts, design upgrades, conversions, and the like. A few examples below:

BSA gearbox as it arrived for overhaul; a few bits missing, but not too bad.

This AMC box was a lot worse, but saveable.

A set of New Hudson girder forks; bent, twisted, cracked, and worn out: but overhauled and saved.

Shimmed valve gear for 750cc BSA race engine.

Full flow, full pressure oil filter conversion for British engines (and others)
