Our STORY
Our Team
DMZ Motorcycle Co.
DMZ Motorcycle Co. began with a passion for history, great motorcycles and honouring those who fought to defend and protect their country.
​
Each bike tells a story of heroism, courage,
or great military achievement. We love to create commemorative motorcycles to celebrate individuals, squads, platoons or any size division.
​
A portion of each each sale goes towards the
Fallen & Wounded Soldiers Fund

James Leigh
James Leigh, DMZ Motorcycle Co. founder, and long-time bike enthusiast, has was on the hunt to find the perfect military motorcycle. Instead, James decided to create his own. Combining the nostalgic retro look of WW2 bikes, with the comfort and enjoyment of a modern motorcycle, the DMZ dream was born.
As a retired U.S. security consultant, and after motorbiking across some of the most treacherous road in China and Tibet, James is confident that you will love your DMZ Motorcycle as much as he does.
