About Mash
Country of Origin:
France
Founder:
SIMA (Burgundy-based distributor/manufacturer)
Best Known For:
Retro-styled 50–650 cc roadsters and scramblers with EU pricing and support
Company History
Mash is SIMA’s house brand, blending classic British/European aesthetics with accessible pricing through Asian manufacturing and French engineering oversight. The result is a line of charming 50–650 cc singles and twins—Five Hundred, Dirt Track, X-Ride—that deliver the look and stance riders want with ABS/CBS, EFI, and parts support through SIMA’s dealer network. Fit and finish have improved steadily as the brand iterated on suspension, switchgear, and corrosion resistance for European winters. Mash bikes excel at human-scale fun: comfortable speeds, friendly ergonomics, and the kind of styling that makes a cafe stop feel like part of the ride. Historically, Mash shows how distributors can create credible alternatives to premium retros by caring about aftersales as much as tank badges. It widened the doorway to characterful bikes for new riders and budget-minded nostalgists who still expect modern safety and reliability.
