They provide Spares, Accessories, Repairs, Tyres and Servicing for all makes and types of motorcycle. Although not a MoT Test Station, they also offer an MoT Test Service in conjunction with their partner Riverside MoT Centre to complete the range of services on offer. A friendly welcome greets owners of all machines at Lightning Services' premises in the village of Hilperton near Trowbridge, Wiltshire.

Fixed Price Service Menus are offered for most makes and models as well as Insurance Approved Repairs, Engineering, Component Overhaul, Restoration, Refinishing and Customisation services.

Quality consumables, OEM and aftermarket parts and the latest Computerised Diagnostic System mean that Lightning Services can meet the needs of owners with the latest models as well as those with classic machines. Riders can be sure that their machine will be properly cared for at Lightning Services.

As well as OEM and Pattern parts, as an Authorised Dealership for the top names in the Harley and Custom aftermarket Lightning Services can supply a wide range of parts for your custom bike, too. All available from their premises at Hilperton or by Mail Order. With weekly deliveries from European and American distributors and producers, that desperately needed part is never too far away. They can also commission bespoke motorcycle parts that are suitable for restorations and mild street customs or even the wildest of custom bikes. Baz also offers customers a full custom bike building service.

I like Baz. The same way I like it when you go into a restaurant and the chef's got time to discuss the food with you. Always helpful and obviously knows his job, I ride a Hyosung cruiser and have had no problems taking it in for advice and ideas, where some places that deal mostly with well known names wouldn't give me the time of day. I'll be back !

Baz at Lightning was the first dealer who was prepared to spend some time talking to me to discuss the problems I was having with my trike. He came up with suggestions and prices and goods ordered normally arrived the next day. Highly recommended.

I took my Harley Sportster to Lightning Services when it was sounding like a bag of nails, Baz and Kev did a brilliant job of stripping the bike down to find the problem, gave me good advice on what to do about it and saved me over £1500!Without doubt they are my first choice to work on my Harley. Keep up the good work geezers!

I have known Baz for many years, initially meeting him through the Motorcycle Action Group. We jointly organised many events and meetings so I can vouch first hand that he is very professional and dedicated in all that he undertakes. To be fair I have yet to use the workshop facilities at Lightning Services, being able to maintain my machines myself. However I have bounced the odd problem off Baz and received sound advice. Also he has sourced various odds and ends for some of my restoration projects. These he has dealt with promptly and I have no complaints about the service that I received.

I started with a pile of bits and ended up with an awesome bike that puts a big stupid grin on my face every time I ride her . To sum up the work they did - Strip , powder coat and rebuild both wheels supply so many parts both replacement originals and custom parts and loads and loads of advise . without Baz and his guys help I don't think I could have done it as quickly or as well , there patience with my endless stupid questions was amazing . Thanks Guys

I would highly recommend Lightning Services to any one. After an accident on my Softail Evo, Baz was able to replace all parts easily and quickly and the bike came back like new. They are also able to replace difficult to source parts for any old bikes, makes my Harley Panhead project much easier.

The free advice I got has saved me money in the long run.
I now buy all my bits from here even though they are not the closest to me.
