The people behind Leeds dealer Iron City Motorcycles and Harley parts giant Iron Stable have launched Iron Offroad, a UK website selling hard parts for motocross, enduro, trail and supermoto bikes – nearly 25,000 of them, from 55 brands, behind a lookup that only shows you what fits your bike.
Pick the bike, see the parts
The homepage gives you three ways in: by bike, by brand or by category. Pick the bike route and you choose make, model and year, and from that point every part you see is listed as fitting it. There are 40 makes and more than 4,500 make-and-model pages. KTM is the biggest at 5,600-plus parts, with Yamaha, Honda, Husqvarna, Kawasaki, Suzuki and GasGas all over 3,000 each, then Beta, Sherco, Fantic, TM Racing and Rieju. Orphaned brands are covered too – there are a thousand parts listed for Husaberg.
The busiest pages are the ones you’d expect: the Yamaha YZ250F, Honda CRF450R, KTM 450 SX-F and Husqvarna FC 250 each run to well over 1,500 parts, and the enduro crowd get the KTM 300 EXC, WR450F and GasGas EC 300. Fitment data goes back a long way – 1974 for the YZ and KX lines – so a twenty-year-old bike isn’t an afterthought.

Every product page shows the RRP next to the shop price, the OEM part number it replaces where there is one, and the full list of models and years the part is listed for. So a piston kit that comes up under YZ 250 F also tells you it fits the WR 250 F and YZ 250 FX.
What’s on the shelf
Hard parts, in the workshop sense. Engine and top-end rebuild kits, brakes, plastics, bars and levers, chains and sprockets, exhausts, filters, clutch and suspension internals, across 72 categories. The brand list reads like a pit-lane roll call: Renthal, ProX, Wiseco, Wössner, Vertex, Athena, Hot Rods, EBC, Galfer, Moto-Master, Brembo, FMF, Pro Circuit, Akrapovič, Polisport, UFO, Cycra, Twin Air, Rekluse and Öhlins among them.
Prices are set, not negotiated, and there’s no club to join to get them. At the time of writing a ProX piston kit for a 2019-on YZ250F was £142.91 against a £178.64 RRP, a UFO front fender for a KX85 was £16.57 (RRP £22.09) and Renthal front sprockets started at £17.44.
Delivery, returns and a real counter
In-stock parts are dispatched from Leeds within two to three working days and the site quotes six to ten working days door to door. UK delivery is £6.99 on orders under £30, £4.99 up to £100 and free above that, by DPD for boxed parts and Royal Mail for the small stuff. Unfitted parts can go back within 14 days, no quibble.
If you’d rather talk to a human, the counter is at Unit 1a, Wellington Road Industrial Estate, Leeds LS12 2UA, open Tuesday to Friday 9–5 and Saturday 9–4, on 0113 340 3591, and you can collect by arrangement. Orders are picked by the dealer’s own workshop staff, which is a nice change from a warehouse guessing at fitment from a photo.
More than a shop
There’s a set of plain-English workshop guides – how to set race sag, when a chain and sprockets are really done, cleaning and oiling an air filter – and a UK motocross clubs directory broken down by region, with track pages, for anyone wanting to get into the sport or find somewhere to ride.
“Most riders buying hard parts online are guessing at fitment from a photo and a part number,” says Dale Gillespie. “We built Iron Offroad so you pick the bike first and everything you see after that fits it. It’s the same thing we did for Harley owners with Iron Stable – just with more mud.”
Where to find it
Iron Offroad is live at ironoffroad.co.uk – start with the make list, or go straight to parts by category. Sister sites are ironstable.app for Harley-Davidson parts and irontyres.co.uk for tyres, and the dealer itself is at shop.ironcitymotorcycles.co.uk.
Who’s behind it
Iron City Motorcycles is the Harley-Davidson, KTM, Royal Enfield and Mutt dealer on Wellington Road in Leeds – MCN’s single-outlet Dealer of the Year in 2023 – and it sits on one of the North’s oldest motor-trade family trees. Septimus Jennings started mending bicycles in a Morpeth shed in the 1890s, took his first premises in 1911 selling bicycles and motor cars, and signed with Ford in 1917. A management buyout in 2005 put Nas Khan OBE in charge; when the car dealerships were sold to Lookers in 2018, the Khan family kept the bikes, and Sohail Khan runs the Leeds and Gateshead operations today.
The online arm is run by Dale Gillespie, the dealer’s chief operating officer. In April this year his team launched Iron Stable, a Harley-Davidson parts site with more than 100,000 parts and accessories from around 400 brands and a part finder built on exploded factory diagrams – by product count, the biggest independent Harley parts retailer in the country. Iron Tyres followed with 3,400-plus motorcycle tyres. Iron Offroad, which went live in May, is the dirt-bike one, and it’s deliberately narrow: MX, enduro, trail and supermoto only. No road bikes, no quads, and – the bit we like – no jerseys, goggles or hoodies getting in the way of the parts.
