The Victorian government in July announced a rebate of $600 to Victorian farmers to go towards the cost of fitting “operation protection devices” like rollover bars.

Unfortunately the statistics are fairly sobering, with 22 people dying in quad bike accidents across Australia last year. Despite the debate and personal preferences surrounding rollover bars, in Premier Daniel Andrews own words… “we can do better than this”. In addition, Worksafe Victoria also announced plans for employers to be required to install roll protection devices on quad bikes.

If you’d like to take advantage of the Victorian Government’s rebate then just pop into store and see Trevor who’ll be able to step you through the process.

In store we have two different brands available. They include:

• ATV Lifeguards – a segmented rollover bar that has the ability to mould around a person’s body, limbs or head on impact. It can’t collapse or flatten and will support the quad off the ground and help to provide crush protection for the rider.
• Quadbar – a small unobtrusive, hairpin shaped hoop mounted on the quadbike behind the rider designed to counter some of the risks associated with typical rollovers.

So what now? Come in store and we’ll be able to discuss the best rollover bar for your bike and can get you started on your rebate straight away. Call us on 03 5772 1045.

Recently Honda undertook a photoshoot in the picturesque Mansfield high country in anticipation of the upcoming End of Financial Year AG Sale. More exciting than the great deals on offer as a tax write-off was the fact that Alexandra Motorcycles and Machinery were called upon to provide the vehicles for the photo shoot.

Anyone who knows Trevor is aware of how meticulous he maintains his vehicles, whether it’s on the floor or out in the workshop. This care and attention definitely shows in the photos captured that day.

Below is just one shot as Trevor was setting up his vehicles for the shoot. Don’t these bikes, quads and side-by-sides look at home on the farm.

If you’d like to see more photos from the shoot make sure you pick up a copy of the upcoming End of Financial Year AG Sale brochures, which can be found in store soon.
