Padgetts – founded by Peter Padgett and his brother Don in 1958 – is one of the most successful and established motorcycle dealerships in the UK. In conjunction with Honda Japan, the company established the first Honda Racing Corporation (HRC) shop in the world outside of Japan in 1993. Padgetts has a strong association with Honda, Suzuki and Yamaha and is a longstanding dealer of all three manufacturers.
The Padgett team heritage spans three generations of British Racing Legends – from Hailwood, Ivy, and Read to Haslam, McElnea and Fogarty to Camier, McGuinness and Hutchinson, all have starred in the companys roll of honour. Over the years Padgetts has provided spectators with more than their fair share of peak sporting moments. From simple beginnings, chasing glory on home-built machines, with little more than willpower and talent to carry them through, Padgett has now emerged as a dominant contender in the British Supersport and Superstock 1000 Championships.
