About Us
Combustion Cycles was established in 2003 and quickly became the Triangle’s source for motorcycle and scooter service and repair. Not long after opening, Combustion earned its North Carolina Motor Vehicle Dealer‘s license and began selling new and used motorcycles and scooters. Since then, tens of thousands of customers have bought their bikes from and/or had their bikes maintained and repaired by Combustion. We are very grateful for the support of our community and we try to give back every day.
Many people have worked at Combustion Cycles over the years and there are thousands of stories to tell. Here are the folks working at Combustion now, and a little bit about them:
Dave, Owner, Mechanic
Dave started Combustion Cycles after realizing that he was more interested in the practical applications of his Chemistry and Physics degrees than he was in the abstract theories. An excellent mechanic and an avid rider, Dave lives and breathes motorcycles.
