Big Boy Fourways: From Humble Beginnings to Success

Big Boy Fourways started their journey during the tail end of 2011, with what started off as a steady canter then turned into a gallop. Those days saw Big Boy enter the pit bike craze, bringing forth a whole new era of young riders into the dirt scene and likewise with their urban scoot, the Big Boy Revival. What became apparent to Conrad (owner of Big Boy Fourways) was that he didn’t struggle to get wheels off his floor and this is what led him to focus heavily on servicing his client’s needs and machinery.

After sticking to their working formula of getting bikes on the road and keeping them on the road, 2016 crawled in. 2016 was perhaps the most significant turning point for BB Fourways with the likes of Uber Eats and Mr Delivery popping onto the scene. With the anchor out of the water and a winning formula in hand, BB Fourways raised their sails and have never turned back.

With numerous awards spread out across its walls, that same humble dealership from back in the day takes pride in what they do and it’s because of this passion that they are so well recognised, not only in Johannesburg but in the whole Gauteng region. If you are ever in JHB and you spot a delivery rider, nine times out of ten there will be a Big Boy Fourways sticker on the back of their top box. I’m not joking, they average 120 motorcycles a month, not a year, a month.

So, what has become of Big Boy Fourways in 2023? Twelve years down the line sees the dealership relocate into a new stunning premise in the same business park as before, but with a more visible presence from the main road and a bigger showroom. One always needs to adapt to the constantly changing markets and BB Fourways has done so by adding additional brands to its megastore.

Yes, they have their foot in the agricultural market with both Linhai and the American juggernaut, Polaris—BB Fourways has a bronze dealer award for Polaris. The commercial and alternative transport segment is covered by Atul (Tuk-Tuk), Jonway and Gomoto. And lastly, when it comes to road-going leisure rides, they’ve got Voge motorcycles.

So, there you have it, an impressive mega store run the right way. If you don’t want to take my word for it, have a read of their four-star google reviews.

My name is Bjorn Moreira (Senior Editor at ZA Bikers) and I eat, sleep and excrete motorcycles. Why yes this may be a problem, but I’m what you call a BIKEAHOLIC which I have been since my very first Braap, at the age of 4. My disease leads me to enjoy photographing, videoing and riding motorcycles on more than a regular basis.
