The Rising Sun Workshop!

The world’s only communal motorcycle workshop and Japanese restaurant – all under one roof.

Two Components

One Machine

At Rising Sun Workshop, Japanese cuisine and motorcycle craftsmanship operate side by side in perfect sync. The rhythm of tools in the garage and the aroma of ramen from the kitchen blend into an experience that’s unlike anything else. It’s a place to fine-tune your bike, sip on a coffee, connect with fellow moto-curious folk and feel part of something bigger.

Wrench More, Spend Less

With average mechanic rates in Sydney hitting $120 an hour, even a simple service can set you back $400–$600. At Rising Sun Workshop, you get access to all the equipment, space, and support you need — without the eye-watering price tag.

Our fully equipped space features four individual bays and a communal bench that fits two. You’ll have full access to professional tools, workbenches, lifts, and even a few specialty items you won’t find in the average home garage. Open 7 days a week, you’re free to wrench at your own pace or join one of our hands-on classes to sharpen your skills.
