Free Monthly Motorcycle Health Checks

MotoBench is proud to partner with R&R Fitness to offer free monthly motorcycle health checks during the riding season for riders across Aberdeen and the Shire. These sessions are designed to help keep your bike safe, reliable, and ready for the road — while bringing the local motorcycle community together.

Where?

R&R Fitness, Innovation Centre, Exploration Drive, Bridge of Don, Aberdeen AB23 8GX

What’s Included

Each check is carried out by a qualified motorcycle technician and covers key safety points such as:

  • Tyres
  • Wheel bearings
  • Lights, controls and horn
  • Head bearings
  • Chain and sprockets (inc chain tightening)

We are also happy to chat about that weird rattling noise you get below 7000rpm on cold Tuesdays in June ;)

Important Notes

  • We’re unable to cater for commercially used motorcycles, scooters, or e‑bikes.
  • Please respect us, the venue and others — anti‑social behaviour will not be tolerated.

At R&R Fitness

The fantastic team at R&R Fitness (owned & run by a guy who rides too) will be on hand during events for gym tours and questions.

R&R Fitness is a hub for sports recovery and injury prevention, where independent specialists work with muscle injuries, joint pain, and mobility issues. It’s not just a gym — it’s a place where people go to get fixed, stay strong, and ride longer.

It’s a great chance to explore the space and meet others who share your passion for bikes and wellbeing.
