Our Story
Alan and Ed Stiley, father and son — one considering retirement, the other contemplating his future — founded Moto Machines in 2011.
With a fresh degree in business from Radford University and a knack for flipping bikes, Ed was ready to pursue something involving motorcycles. Alan had just left a career in aviation, interested in starting his own automotive business. So naturally, they planned a trip to Dealer Expo in Indianapolis for inspiration.
Meeting with other business owners at the show, many shared caution about the recent recession and told Alan and Ed to stay away. But they didn't listen.
Instead, the two landed a great opportunity with some choice suppliers and hit the ground running. As any small business owner will tell you, the first year was full of mistakes and a long learning curve — but they didn't give up. Moto Machines attended every show within a two days' drive and continued to build and refine their operations.
What's made Moto Machines successful is the quality of service and industry expertise they provide their customers. We know every rider wants something different. Our aim is to provide the best and broadest selection of products to help them build that ultimate bike.
Our Progress
-
2011
Moto Machines started out renting space in another company's 1,800 sq ft warehouse, with two rented storage units across the street. Inventory quickly outgrew the space.
-
2012
Moved into a dedicated 3,500 sq ft warehouse to consolidate inventory and focus on operations — the same year as our first major website redesign, built to be as simple as possible.
-
2013
Hired our first employee, as soon as we could afford to — the beginning of building a dedicated team around our mission.
-
2018
Launched our latest website redesign — a full year in the making — to make finding the right products even easier, with ongoing improvements ever since.
Our Team
As you know, Moto Machines was founded by a father and son who both have a passion for the motorcycle industry. It was only fitting that we hire employees who share the same passion.
We hired our first employee in 2013 as soon as we could afford to do so. We take pride in saying that all of our past and current employees have come from lifelong friendships and organizations such as Radford University.
