Moonraker Motorcycles Ltd. - Company Profile

​

Introduction

I started it all back on August 1st, 1985, and it seems like yesterday.

Moonraker Motorcycles grew fast from it's very humble beginnings in a small garden shed to what is now one of the leading Motorcycle dealerships in Norwich. And a Royal Enfield flagship store in the East. Specializing in Quality commuter and touring Motorcycles of top brands, scooters, super scooters, small to medium-sized retro style motorcycles, and what we once called mopeds too. My journey spans 39 + years of dedication and growth.

​

History and Growth

Back in 1985 I, Paul Clarke started Moonraker Motorcycles in my mother’s garden shed. By November 1989, Moonraker Motorcycles growing fast moved to a leased property in Norwich previously known as Bob Gotts Motorcycles on Drayton Road. With Continued dedication and a lot of late nights this led to further expansion, and on January 1st, 1996, Moonraker Motorcycles moved to what was the much larger showrooms and workshops of Slaughter Motorcycles of Norwich at 125-129 Oak Street, Norwich NR33BP, which remains Moonrakers location to date.
