Company History
MGB is a UK-focused badge used by distributors to import EU-homologated scooters and small motorcycles with clear documentation and strong parts backup. The lineup targets commuters, learners, and delivery riders—twist-and-go practicality, frugal engines, and ABS/CBS where required. UK-specific prep (heated grips options, corrosion protection, brighter lighting) improves winter survivability, while dealer networks prioritize spares so downtime stays low. Styling is modern without fuss, and ergonomics suit daily traffic. Historically, MGB represents the mature distributor model: pick dependable global platforms, make them compliant and supportable, and stand behind them with straightforward warranty processes. The net effect is new-bike certainty at used-bike money—exactly what many first-time riders need.
