Ridit Fixit Makit
Welcome to Ridit Fixit Makit.
We believe if you can't buy the part, you should make it. Join us in the home workshop for authentic motorcycle restoration, engine rebuilds, and precision machining in my home workshop.
Our Philosophy:
RIDIT:
Ride tests, shakedowns, and enjoying the finished machines.
FIXIT:
In-depth restorations and mechanical repairs on classic bikes, from vintage Hondas to rare two-strokes.
MAKIT:
When factory parts are gone, we fire up the lathe and mill to create our own engineering solutions.
Subscribe to join the workshop and see what we build next.

Bit of a milestone yesterday: I personally delivered the GN125 to its new home. It was a small trek, but seeing how chuffed the new owner was made it all worth it. It’s always a bit bittersweet letting a project go, but I couldn't be happier to see it in good hands. 🏍️ I’d love to see what you lot are riding! Send in a photo of you and your bike, and I’ll share the best ones here.
Leave a message on here and email your photo of your ride or project.

It's done. 🔧
The GN125 is finished.
This thing came to me with a seized chain, a cracked brake, and more hidden surprises than I expected. Full service. Full TLC. Total transformation.
Today it went to Mount Motorcycles for its MOT.
The result? You'll have to watch to find out — but I will say this: the lads at Mount were genuinely taken aback by the standard of the build. That made the whole journey worth it.
Final episode is LIVE now 👇

And while the MOT was going on — I wasn't sitting in a waiting room. The Bear 650 was already out on the road. That one's live too if you missed it.
Drop a 🔧 in the comments if you've been following this build from the start.

New video just dropped:
Coolant leak that should have killed the engine… fixed at home with a custom-made solution.

Let me know in the comments: what was the scariest leak or failure you’ve had to fix yourself?

Update on the Aprilia RS125 leak saga…
The leak is gone. The coolant is staying where it should. And the workshop has seen some serious action over the last few days. ✅
You legends who voted in the poll:
You picked your favourite fix… but did I actually follow the poll result, or ignore you all and do something completely different? 😉
No spoilers here – the follow-up video will show exactly what I did, why I did it, and what I’d do differently next time. For now, I’ll just say:
The “hidden leak” is no longer hiding.
Video coming soon – make sure notifications are on if you want to see the full autopsy and repair. 🔔
