Introducing Hitchcox Motorcycles: born from a career in Formula 1 Engineering
[PRESS RELEASE] Born from a decade of experience in Formula 1 and the love for riding classic inspired motorcycles
with a tune to match, we are proud to introduce the Hitchcox Motorcycles brand with a full lineup of
exhaust options for all Triumph’s from the Modern Classics range readily available.
Handcrafted in the UK
Every product from the Hitchcox Motorcycles range is engineered and handcrafted in the UK.
Located in Brackley across the street from the Mercedes AMG Formula 1 team facility, Hitchcox
Motorcycles uses engineering skills and techniques acquired in over a decade of working in Formula
1 to design handcrafted exhaust systems that come with a unique style and sound. A sound that is
not just available for one-off custom motorcycles.
Ready To Ride: The full Triumph Modern Classic Range
To connect true craftsmanship with consumer convenience, Hitchcox Motorcycles has engineered a
full lineup of exhaust options that serves all models from the Triumph Modern Classics range. Each
product is handmade, but thanks to efficient engineering and the use of model specific jigs, they are
guaranteed to fit each model like an OEM aftermarket product while offering the look and feel only a
custom-made exhaust brings. Adding to the OEM feel is the package each Ready To Ride product
comes in, including all necessary mounting materials, gaskets and O2 sensors where applicable.
Each exhaust has been engineered to offer the Hitchcox Motorcycles sound, but in terms of style and
finish there is a lot to choose from in our Ready To Ride lineup. You can pick between lightweight
titanium or durable 304 Stainless Steel depending on the product, and headers can be either mandrel
bend or built up from pie-cut sections. And with sound and style both being at the forefront of the
Hitchcox Motorcycles promise, there is the option to go for a brushed stainless look or a deep black
ceramic coating.
From Bonneville to Thruxton and any model in between; there is a handcrafted Hitchcox Motorcycles product available for all models from Triumph’s Modern Classic range. From drag pipes to a reversed-
cone style, each Ready To Ride exhaust option offers a unique style and sound while shaving up to 9 kilograms in weight compared to the stock exhaust system.
Design Your Own
When any of the Hitchcox Motorcycles ready-to-ride options aren’t sufficient, the Design Your Own
option is there to bring to life even the most creative exhaust desires. Combining crafting skills with
engineering experience, we make sure each exhaust looks the way it should while making sure it
doesn’t affect the durability of the engine. Under the Design Your Own flag, Hitchcox Motorcycles
has helped bring to life to some of the most creative custom motorcycle designs. And for classic or
exotic motorcycles, it is a great solution to acquire a perfect recreation of an exhaust system that is
no longer available.
Meet the Maker: Bike Shed Motorcycle Show 2023
Hitchcox Motorcycles will be present at this year’s Bike Shed Motorcycle Show, which takes place on
May 26-28 at the beautiful Tobacco Docks. Being at the heart of the custom motorcycle world, we
are happy to welcome you on our stand to show you how we work, and to hear about any creative
exhaust ideas you have in mind. And of course show you how our handcrafted exhaust options look
on beautifully designed custom motorcycles.
About Hitchcox Motorcycles
Hitchcox Motorcycles was founded in 2022 by Tom Hitchcox, an exhaust engineer in Formula 1
during weekdays and an avid rider on the weekends. Having put his skills to works on his own custom
motorcycles, Tom married these two parts of his life together when starting Hitchcox Motorcycles.
With the ambition to make the highest level of exhaust engineering available for motorcycle
enthusiasts that look for nothing but the best, Hitchcox Motorcycles offers off the shelf solutions for
all Triumph’s from the Modern Classic range with the Ready To Ride options. For anyone looking
beyond these options, the Design Your Own option is there to bring virtually any exhaust idea for any
bike to life.
