Switched on Bikes

Welcome to our new friends FTN Motion who’ve set up shop with us on the waterfront!

If you’ve walked past us lately, you’ve likely seen their signature Streetdog electric motorcycles in the window.

Now’s your chance to ride one!

This Saturday, 5th of September 9:00-2:00, they’re holding a test ride event from our store- promoting their limited edition Phantom series. You can book space on the FTN Motion website on find the link in our bio. The spots are filling up fast!

FTN Motion is a Kiwi company, started in Wellington and now have a factory in Hamilton. They’ve set up a servicing workshop at our store and have new bikes to browse. This isn’t just a new product we’re selling- when you book a test ride, you’ll be helped by Will the Wellington Streetdog guru, who knows these bikes inside out.

FTN Motion, great to have you here!
