Our Work

Built by a rider, for riders

San Jose Hogwash started in 2011 because we saw something missing. We couldn’t find a local shop dedicated to detailing motorcycles, so we decided to create one ourselves, a place where riders could bring their bikes for professional detailing and dependable service without the hassle.

As longtime riders, we understand what goes into taking care of a bike and how much it means to its owner. More than a decade later, we’re still family-owned and serving motorcycles of all kinds throughout the Bay Area.

“When I picked up the bike, all I noticed was how shiny the bike was! Roger was able to get the residue off of the rear saddlebags and hairline scratches around the bike.

I definitely will be going back! FYI, he can do basic maintenance on your bike including tires!”

–Sean C., Hogwash Customer
