Our Story
From humble beginnings in a small garage to becoming Aylesford's premier motorcycle and car service centre - discover the A&J journey.
Where It All Started
A&J Motorcycles began with a passion for bikes and a small garage. What started as a personal workspace for maintaining and repairing motorcycles quickly evolved into something more. Word spread throughout the local community about quality workmanship, fair pricing, and honest service.
The foundation was built on a simple principle: treat every customer's bike as if it were your own. This philosophy attracted motorcycle enthusiasts from across Aylesford and the surrounding Kent areas who were looking for a garage they could trust.
Building the Motorcycle Business
As demand grew, so did the business. The small garage transformed into a fully-equipped motorcycle workshop. We invested in professional tools, diagnostic equipment, and MOT testing capabilities to serve our customers better.
Our reputation spread beyond Aylesford to Maidstone, Chatham, Rochester, and throughout Kent. Riders knew they could rely on A&J Motorcycles for everything from routine servicing and MOT tests to complex repairs and diagnostics. Whether it was a classic bike restoration or modern sportbike maintenance, we handled it all.
The business grew not through advertising, but through recommendations. Satisfied customers told their riding friends, motorcycle clubs spread the word, and the A&J name became synonymous with quality motorcycle service in Kent.
Acquiring the Car Garage
Success with motorcycles opened an exciting opportunity. A local car garage became available, and it was the perfect chance to expand our services. We acquired the facility and launched A&J Motors (aandjmotors.co.uk), bringing the same dedication to quality and customer service that made A&J Motorcycles successful.
The car garage allowed us to offer comprehensive MOT testing and servicing for cars alongside our motorcycle services. Many of our motorcycle customers also drove cars, and they appreciated having one trusted garage for all their vehicle needs.
Modern Facility, Traditional Values
Today, A&J Motorcycles and A&J Motors operate from our facility at Unit 9-10, Yew Tree Industrial Estate in Aylesford. We've grown significantly, but our core values remain unchanged: quality workmanship, honest service, and treating every customer fairly.
We serve motorcyclists and car drivers across Kent with a comprehensive range of services including MOT testing, servicing, repairs, diagnostics, and maintenance. Our experienced mechanics work on all makes and models, from mopeds and scooters to quad bikes, trikes, motorcycles, and cars.
What started in a small garage has become a trusted name in Kent's automotive community. We're proud of our journey and grateful to every customer who has been part of our story.
