About this station

Bikewise Motorcycles is an MOT test station at 25 Rutherford Close, Progress Road, Eastwood, SS9 5LQ, in Southend-on-Sea (East of England). It appears in DVSA's Active MOT test stations dataset dated 26 February 2026 under site number V105110, and is authorised for 2 of the six MOT test classes: motorcycles of any engine size (Class 1 and 2).

Motorcycle testing is the distinguishing authorisation here: 9 of the 45 stations listed in Southend-on-Sea hold Class 1 or 2, and 36 of the 180 stations within 10 miles of this one do. It does not test Class 4 cars and light vans, so it is a specialist station rather than a general MOT garage; the 43 Class 4 stations in Southend-on-Sea are listed on the district page.

The nearest listed alternative is Progress Road MOT Service Centre in Leigh on Sea, at the same postcode (Classes 4 and 7). 96 other stations sit within 5 miles and 180 within 10 miles, which makes this a dense area for MOT choice. The five nearest stations lie within 1.4 miles.

The DVSA statutory maximum fee applies to every class this station tests: Class 1 £29.65, Class 2 £29.65. Motorcycle tests are typically £20-29 against the £29.65 cap. Confirm the price with the station before booking; prices are not part of the DVSA register.

No Companies House company was matched to this trading name and postcode on 1 May 2026. That is common for MOT garages, many of which trade as sole traders or partnerships, and it says nothing about the station's authorisation, which comes from the DVSA list above.

The phone number DVSA lists for the station is 01702 512211. Opening hours, booking and prices are not part of the register; call before travelling.
