Sun, 09 Aug 2026 00:00:00 BST https://www.motorbikes4all.com/blog/honda-super-blackbird 0-60 in 2.8 seconds and a top speed of 178mph, for less money than a brand new CB125F. This is the Honda Super Blackbird, and from 1996 until 1999 it held the record of the fastest production bike on the market. Now, you can pick one up used for just 3000, and in our opinion, it's one of the best value buys out there. The thing that makes this bike unique is that it's not just fast. It's comfortable, it has fittings for full luggage, and it's reliable - we've seen plenty of these with mileages in the 6 figure reigon. The blackbird might not have the legacy of the Hayabusa, but - it's cheaper, it's lighter, and in my opinion, the best bang-for-buck sports tourer that money can buy. Thu, 30 Jul 2026 00:00:00 BST https://www.motorbikes4all.com/blog/honda-x4-in-stock This incredibly rare Honda X4 has just come in. It uses the same engine as the CB1300, but geared for more torque down low. With classic muscle-cruiser looks, Japanese engineering and in overall good condition, this makes a great buy for a collector or an avid rider. Available now at just 4990. Sun, 26 Jul 2026 00:00:00 BST https://www.motorbikes4all.com/blog/reassurance-on-the-state-of-the-motorcycle-industry To be honest, we didn't want to make another post about the Superbike Factory situation. Hundreds of people have lost their jobs, customers and suppliers have been left in difficult situations and the industry has lost another player. From our side of things, the news has found us facing the same question across countless phone calls, emails and comments - "If I buy or sell with you, how do I know the same thing won't happen?" The first thing we should say, is that businesses across all industries can be vulnerable to external factors such as economic shifts, evolving trends, politics and much more. However, we've always tried to build our business in a way that makes it as resilient as possible, and here's how: Firstly, there's our showroom - we own it. That means no landlord, no rent increases, and full control over our premises. Then there are the bikes. Every one of the 500+ used motorcycles in our showroom is owned outright by Motorbikes 4 All. We don't rely on stocking finance for our used bike inventory, which gives us greater control over the business. The same approach applies to how we've grown. Over the last 16 years, we've expanded considerably, but steadily, and choosing to operate from a single site keeps our overheads under control and allows us to focus on long-term, sustainable growth. We hope that this insight gives you some confidence in buying from us or selling to us. Wed, 22 Jul 2026 00:00:00 BST https://www.motorbikes4all.com/blog/superbike-factory-administrators The recent news that Superbike Factory have appointed administrators is a shock to us all. Naturally, questions have been raised surrounding the overall state of the industry, so we wanted to share our thoughts. First and foremost, our thoughts are with everyone directly affected. Behind every dealership are passionate people who have dedicated their careers to motorcycling, and we sincerely hope that employees, customers, suppliers and partners find certainty and support in the weeks ahead. The UK motorcycle industry is a tight-knit community, and while we compete, we all have the same goal - to grow the number of bikers on the road and to help customers find their dream bikes. We've already spoken to customers asking whether the recent Superbike Factory news affects other motorcycle dealers. We'd like to reassure both existing and prospective customers that we are an independent motorcycle dealership and continue to operate exactly as normal. While the news will inevitably have an effect on the market, we're still continuing to buy, sell and deliver bikes nationwide. We wish everyone affected by the current situation the very best, and we remain optimistic about the future of the UK motorcycle industry. The passion for riding has always been stronger than any individual business, and we're proud to continue serving riders across the country.

If youve been to our showroom recently you might have spotted a certain red banner on one of our outbuildings. Every day, were having customers ask when the cafe will be ready, so we thought you lot are due an update. M4A Cafe (actual name pending) plans to be more than just a cafe. Our vision is a hub for bikers, motoring enthusiasts and M4A locals, offering fairly priced food & drink, events, regular bike & car meets, and much more. Sadly, we still cant give you an exact date at this point. Our priorities have been getting the showroom and the outdoor spaces completed before we begin work on the cafe. As much as we want a cafe as part of our offering, the dealership has to take the front seat as the core of the business. With no showroom, theres no cafe. Having said this, we have recently teamed up with Gingernut Coffee, who will be bringing their van to the showroom every Saturday for the foreseeable, supplying coffee (including iced!), cakes, bacon rolls and much more. As soon as we have more news, our newsletter subscribers and social media followers will be the first to know. --- For more opinions, news and reviews subscribe to our monthly newsletter. Wed, 15 Jul 2026 00:00:00 BST https://www.motorbikes4all.com/blog/the-triumph-daytona-675-a-future-classic The Daytona 675 - A future classic? [From July's M4A newsletter, by Ben Fry, General Manager]. "If youve ever visited our showroom and asked me about sports bikes, the odds are Ive said the numbers 6-7-5. Ive owned three Daytona 675s in my 15 years of riding, two first gen and one third gen, and Id buy another in a heartbeat. Replacing an inline-four with a triple in a 2000s sports bike was a bold move from Triumph, but it paid off. Its not that the previous Daytonas were bad bikes, but the 675 engine has stood the test of time, and in my opinion, its a future classic. The Daytona 675 engine offers enough power and agility for a track day, while remaining manageable and comfortable enough for a leisurely Sunday ride-out. Then there are the looks: the perfect blend of modern and retro. The ahead-of-its-time styling, retro typography, underseat exhaust and sweeping headlights all combine to create a design that still feels fresh two decades later. While I wouldn't want to promise that these bikes are going to skyrocket in value, I can say one thing for sure: if you get one, don't just store it - ride it. The smile won't leave your face." Browse Daytona 675s at M4A. Do you agree with Ben? If not, what do you think makes a future classic?
