Best Motorcycle Store (for purchasing bikes and/or service)

[Marmalade Dad]

What are some stores that you have PERSONALLY experienced, and what do you want to say about them?

From Me:
I went to Temple City Power Sports (located off Rosemead Blvd. in San Gabriel) to service my '95 F3 (wasn't running). They did a commendable job in getting her running again. I've also been there a few times for other small things (new sprocket/chain, a dead battery that I purchased from them, which they replaced for free) and their service has always been the best. The employees are usually pretty friendly and willing to help answer any questions. The bad stuff? Expensive! But I'm a true believer in "you get what you pay for," so I'm glad to dish out the extra $$ for great service.

I also tried Born Again Fairings, located in San Dimas, CA. The shop has been around for awhile and many people on the 'net vouch for them. I needed to get some body fairings fixed (cracks and broken tabs) - practically all my pieces had SOMEthing wrong - so I figured I'd give them a try. The guy I met, Erikk (sp??) was great to talk to and has top-notch welding/fixing skills. I'm not sure if he's still there, though...but regardless, it's worth a look if you don't want to buy brand-new body panels.

hey Marmalade boy, i have'nt been to any of those shops that you mentioned but there's a shop in Eagle Rock called Cycle Depot.it's near Tommy's burgers and across from Casa Bianca's on Colorado Blvd.(bout a block west past Townsend)

it's a little shop but they have the regular service/tune-up parts in stock and they can get you pretty much anything on the market from clothing to performance parts. oh yah, they're cheap too. THEY WILL BEAT ANYONES PRICES, even if they just beat a competitors price by a penny. (j/k Gus if your reading this)

customer service is excellent. talk to Gus or Tom in parts and if you need service for your bike talk to Tommy in the service bay... really cool guys.

i've bought most of my parts there, mostly had to special order them but turn-around time was good. do your homework before goin there though cuz they will beat anything on the net too.

yah, very knowledgable, good competitive prices and good service. i recommend them to anyone in riding distance. graemlins/righton.gif
