Joe Rascal Revamps Motorcycle Retail in Australia

The Australian motorcycle industry has a new player, and it’s already making waves. Joe Rascal, a brand born out of the ashes of Peter Stevens Motorcycles’ voluntary administration, has stepped in to take over several prime retail assets. In doing so, it has positioned itself as a fresh, ambitious force in a market long dominated by familiar names.

From Harley-Heaven to Joe Rascal

At the heart of Joe Rascal’s launch are four dealerships across Victoria, including the former Harley-Heaven stores in Melbourne, Dandenong, and Ringwood, as well as the prestigious Ducati Melbourne franchise. These aren’t just acquisitions; they’re the foundation of a new vision for motorcycle retail in Australia.

CEO James Tonna, a lifelong rider with a background in banking and entrepreneurship, has made it clear that Joe Rascal aims to be more than just another dealership chain.

“At Joe Rascal, we’re not just opening dealerships; we’re opening a new chapter in the Harley-Davidson and Ducati experience. Our promise is to partner with every rider, to deeply understand their dreams, and to deliver an unparalleled journey that transforms them into a cherished part of our Rascal family from day one,” Tonna explains.

Leadership with Experience and Energy

Backing Tonna is a strong leadership team that combines fresh ambition with continuity from the Harley-Heaven era. Jason McKenzie, who previously led Harley-Heaven, now serves as CEO of Joe Rascal. Jessica Thomson oversees Parts, Accessories, Apparel, and Lifestyle divisions, while Geoff Mortimer takes the reins as CFO, managing Finance and Insurance.

Chairman Barry Fitzpatrick provides additional industry and governance expertise, ensuring the new venture is built on solid foundations.

A Different Kind of Dealership

Where Joe Rascal intends to set itself apart is in attitude and approach. According to Tonna, the group won’t be “tied to how things have been done in the past.” Instead, it seeks to redefine what it means to buy, own, and live with a Harley-Davidson or Ducati.

“Out of the fire comes opportunity. Joe Rascal will carve a path like no other, taking our new friends and family on a journey that has never been seen or experienced before in the world of motorcycling,” Tonna states.

It’s a bold promise: to build a dealership network that is as much about lifestyle, loyalty, and passion as it is about sales.

The Road Ahead

For Australian riders, Joe Rascal represents both continuity and change. Continuity, because iconic brands like Harley-Davidson and Ducati remain accessible in Victoria through familiar locations. Change, because the dealership experience is being reimagined as something more personal, more immersive, and more focused on community.

If Joe Rascal can deliver on its vision, it may well set a new standard for motorcycle retail in Australia, a standard built not on the past, but on passion and possibility.
