Fantastic experience: I love Highside :)
Fantastic experience: The Motorcycle shop you need. The only one. Phil is nothing short of a legend for sorting me out and assisting with purchasing and liaising for the fitment of my exhaust and air filter as well as the service for the bike. Super friendly, approachable and knowledgeable. The shop is funky and well stocked with a range of awesome gear and accessories and you can even grab yourself an awesome cup of coffee. Cannot recommend them more for any of your biking needs. After the experience I had with another shop (Triumph CBD), it was a breath of fresh air to have Phil and to have a completely hassle free experience and have some good old fashioned no BS customer service
Thanks for visiting and glad to hear you had a good experience

Fantastic experience: Stumbled across Highside whilst looking for some new gloves and gear. Ended up shopping online. Didn't quite have what I was after but Phil reached out to me to ensure I was looked after in looking for an alternative item, offering a selection of other items that I might be interested in. Just this little experience of Phil calling me up to make sure I was satisfied goes a long way and I'll definitely be shopping here again. Competitive pricing over the big boys means a lot to me and I'll happily support this small local business over the mainstream groups. Thanks again Phil, you are a gem! Would 100% recommend to anyone looking for affordable gear with customer service that goes the extra mile.
Thanks Grouchy ❤️
Fantastic experience: HIGHSIDE is now my favourite moto shop. Phil is incredibly kind and helpful and has sourced parts for me when not in stock. They have arrived within days. The shop has a heap of great gear and accessories....and GREAT COFFEE! HIGHSIDE also do custom leathers - check out their instagram. One of the best things about HIGHSIDE is the community, everyone is so friendly and great to chat too. To be honest, sometimes I just stop by for a chat after a ride. If you're going past, drop in for a coffee and a chat. This is how a moto store should be! Drop in and support this great shop.

Spent a long time in store with no pressure to buy, because they're genuinely helpful. The staff here know their stuff and had endless patience for a new rider like myself. Picked up some gear that hasn't missed a beat. Highly recommended.
Thanks for the review Clement!
Fantastic experience: Attended the grand opening yesterday; despite the wet condition, the support from local riders was unreal! I wasn't sure whether to turn up, but I'm glad I went for the free doughnuts alone! Phil, the owner of HighSide, is building a great bike community, and it was so lovely to interact with riders and share information. Very impressed with the display and set up of the shop. Phil is very knowledgeable about all the bike gear you need and super attentive and helpful about everything you want to know about the product. The price is very competitive. And apparently, the website is launching in about a week or two. Super excited to visit the website and check out the full range!
Thank you Mr. Kim
Fantastic experience: Great store with fantastic staff and lots of merch. Store run by motorcyclist for motorcyclists
❤️❤️❤️
Fantastic experience: Having met Phil through riding Ohvale’s when it came time to buy a new suit i went with oneself. Phil was an absolute legend in the design and measure phase of the purchase. The resulting suit was outstanding and exactly what I had pictured. Racing my first season on the Ohvale, the leathers took a beating, with Atleast one crash per round, they held like a dream and only 12 months later did they require any kind of small repairs. I would highly recommend one self leathers and Phil himself A* service.
Thanks Adam ❤️
Fantastic experience: Great shop, convenient location, always up for a chat!
Thanks Johnny!
Fantastic experience: If you need anything from a whole set of hear to a new helmet. Phil at highside has you covered. Thoughtful and honest advice, highly competitive pricing, can't go wrong here...
