Motorcycle Hearse
Giving Bikers & Motorcycle Enthusiasts the Send-off They Deserve
About this service and why I only require a set donation to charity for its use
A custom-built three-wheeled motorcycle, powered by a Ford 2.9 litre fuel injected engine, draws a specially made open-top bier with a high deck, on which your loved one's coffin rests, giving an unhindered view of it from all sides during the funeral procession. All in black and twenty five-feet in length, it has the largest naturally aspirated engine of any full-time working motorcycle hearse in the UK. My aim is to give the ultimate last ride for a biker or motorcycle enthusiast.
In 2016 I created this service to help bereaved families who want to give their loved one the send-off they deserve, by way of a motorcycle themed funeral, but found the cost of hiring a business to carry it out an expensive additional cost.
Having been a biker for more than 55 years I know the meaning of brotherhood, and your loved one will be in capable hands. It is an honour and a privilege to convey a biker on their last ride, and for that reason I could not accept payment in return for this service. Instead I ask that a set charitable donation is made in your loved one's memory to Torbay Bikers for Kids (Registered Charity No: 1200973), who raise funds to purchase essential items that will help improve the lives and/or education of children who are disabled or severely ill, living in Torbay and the surrounding area of South Devon. To date, in excess of 250 children have been helped from donations.

A fantastic tribute for my son. I can never repay you both for your love and kindness.

Mark Knights
Thank you for giving my mum a wonderful send-off.
Sam Fearon
You absolute beauts. This really would have meant so much to Paul, as it did us.

Thank you very much for the beautiful send-off for my dad yesterday. The trike was brilliant, and dad would've liked this. Dad never got as far as making his own trike, so it was only fitting he had this one.

I can't thank you enough for what you both did for my wife
