Recently purchase a W650, Steve was spot on describing the bike.Definitely knows the meaning of integrity and customer service.Looking forward to another purchase down the road.Old Man in Texas
Great prices, fast delivery times, anything you want, right on advice, the perfect motorcycle shop.
I love these guys theyre very hearty small little shop with lots of bikes for sale inside and very good customer service very very hearty people highly recommend them! Prices of bikes are very reasonable guys.
Great bunch of folks. Friendly, helpful, take the time to help you.
Bought front brake pads for my Burgman 650 and made an appointment for someone to put them on for me. After expecting it would take some time to do, I was told that I would get a call on Tuesday the following the week when they were able to put them on so I could wait for them. No one called me on Tuesday, and when I called them to find out what happened, nobody could tell me. The person managing the appointment calendar had a horrible attitude; he huffed and told me that I would have to wait a whole week or two weeks to get my pads put on. Neither he nor the person who took my initial call bothered to apologize for the bad information I was given. I ultimately decided to just pick up my pads and have someone else put them on for me. The person who sold me the pads didnt even bother to acknowledge that I was picking up my pads the day after he told me that they would install them. Theyre rude and unprofessional. Ill never go back.
This was one of the easiest bike buying processes Id ever been through. I came in, looked at a bike I saw on their website, and decided I wanted it. Since I couldnt come get it that day, they had me put in a deposit (though they never actually charged my card) to hold it. I came in today, picked up the bike, and rode away a happy customer. If I could improve anything about the process, I would like it if they could provide temp tags there so I could ride around for the day without having to go to the MVD, but Im not sure how temp tags work if they arent technically a dealership? Either way, Im a happy customer with a gorgeous new bike.Edit: sold my old bike through them. The sale was fast, easy, and Steve was incredibly transparent throughout the entire process.
I am Extremely frustrated with this place! I scheduled an appointment 2 weeks ago to get a tire changed out and some suspension work. I WAITED 2 WEEKS and when I showed up today the place was closed! I also missed out on a family camping trip this weekend because I needed this appointment as soon as possible... luckily cycle gear was able to get my new tire swapped out. With how much of my time they wasted I Honestly don’t think I’ll be coming here in the future. Wasted my entire weekend. You would think they would at least call me to tell me they messed up and were closed on the 5th.
This was tough, I wanted to give 5 stars. They do good work and you cant get tires installed cheaper anywhere. However this also makes them very busy. Its difficult to contact them by phone and if they find something wrong with the bike, it make take some weeks to get it fixed.
They have really helpful and smiling. Thank you guys!
Good selection of products. Helpful staff.
Dont think I got correct information about a bike I was going to buy. Decided otherwise.
I just wanted to let everyone know that this company is liget. I couldnt find a shop to work on my motorcycle, and this shop mechanic was willing to work on my bike. My bike runs more efficient now then before. their skills and customer service is excellent. .. Im a real one. Special thanks to the shop. I just moved here to Albuquerque and highly recommend this shop.
Best place to find all the parts or gear you could need.
This place is awesome. I took my 2006 cbr600rr because of a no start issue. They diagnosed and gave me my bike back the very next day!! They also recommended I replace my worn tires after telling me my bike was ready. I agreed, and they had her ready on the very same day, I didnt have to wait! They also have great pricing! I highly recommend this place, these people are awesome.
The Moto-Authority, Is an awsome shop for parts, and service. The staff were very kind, and helpful. Made sure my parts arrived, and called me to insure the most prompt service.
Ive used these guys services a few times and its always been straight forward and fair dealing. Plus they do a good job, and their store front is pretty nice too. If you need maintenance, repairs, or are looking for a used bike (they sell those too), definitely check them out.
As Ive gotten back into motorcycling, Steve and his guys (Tom, Andrew, and Anthony) have helped me out with a TON of stuff, and theyre always friendly. They really do care about getting you taken care of, and the prices are always reasonable. And they can order ANYTHING, even factory parts. This has got to be the best shop in town.
All I can say is positive things about this place, Steve has created a wonderful establishment and has been here for many years. I first started coming to his motorcycle shop back in 2013 and would bring my bikes here on and off to this present day. He is really reasonable on all parts/accessories and competitive with products. If they dont have it they can get it. As far as service department I have worked personally with Anthony for many years as well on and off and also has been fair and reasonable in pricing. As far as mechanical repairs I dont personally know any of the guys but they do an absolutely fantastic job. With all things considered I again have nothing but positive experiences with the guys here. I have brought a total of 4 different bikes ranging from street to cruisers. You name it they can take care of it and wouldnt choose any other place locally
Wow, what a great bunch of folks at Moto Authority! Owner Steve is so knowledgeable and friendly it made the whole process of buying a bike from them a real pleasure. On top of that, Steve actually rode the bike to my house to make the delivery process that much easier. Their service department is also top drawer and really worked hard to understand and resolve an issue I had with an older KTM that I own. I highly recommend Moto Authority to anybody that rides!
The best used motorcycle shop in the state. Large selection of used motorcycles, atv, and snowmobiles. Friendly and knowledgeable staff. Some used gear too. Steve and Anthony keep my ride running well.
Good group of guys there, had some work done everything went smooth and had me back on the road in the same day! Even had parts dealer send the wrong part and they made sure I got what I needed.
Steve and his team at Moto Authority are absolutely top notch. Living in Colorado and searching for the “right” BMW R nineT in the winter was a bit challenging... Found the perfect example on Steve’s CycleTrader ad and reached out. He went above and beyond sending me tons of pictures, patiently answering every asinine question I asked, and even going so far as to offer a great transportation solution for getting the bike to CO. Really can’t rate these guys high enough. Just waiting for Spring so I can ride down and take this great team out for beers. Kudos, Steve. You’ve got it nailed! Thanks a lot!
Lots of experienced personnel and excellent service!!
Great sales personnel!
Been here many times and they are always ready to help and respectful
I went into today for help with battery hardware, as always I received fast and friendly service.Last year I took my 2015 Honda CBR1000RR in for suspension set up. Really good price and service, my bike feels so planted and stable now for my LBS.Thank you so much Moto Authority!!!
Dana and Steve are great. Will be buying a bike from them in 2021!
Top notch business, excellent customer service has always taken great care of me and been more than fair. Very knowledgeable but honest about what they know, if they dont have the answer they can find it. Great prices, great resource for Albuquerque. Moto-Authority is my first and last stop.
This is a great place to handle motorcycle needs.
Great place! Great prices! Great people! tons of selection! They help to get my R3 fully loaded
Called in and got a quote on some service i needed done and they were happy to get me pricing. I show up right before closing when i got off work and they stayed late and took great care of me. Steve the owner was very helpful and the pricing was great.
This is the best independent motorcycle shop in town. Steve is a solid dude and he has a good team. Ive had many tires mounted here (I carry the wheel in) and some other services performed. Ive sold two bikes via his consignment services and the deals are always transparent and straightforward. I would not hesitate to buy a motorcycle here either.
Steve and his staff have been providing excellent, friendly and helpful service since he opened this bussiness.
Super helpful and cool staff found me a new shop in Albuquerque forsure great prices
Awesome...thanks guys
These guys are great. Best prices in Albuquerque, honest and reliable and very helpful. Moto Authority are my go to guys for anything motorcycle. Wouldnt use anyone else. Steve and Amthony Rock it!!!!
I recently moved to New Mexico and didn’t have the space or tools to fix a bike i had bought. I brought it to Moto authority and they went above and beyond with their customer service and knowledge of bikes. I truly appreciate their service and would recommend them to anyone. Make sure to call and ask for Anthony he will get you squared away!
Fantastic, friendly service with a good supply of used motorcycles
Really great place, just bought my first ever bike here for a great price. Staff was very knowledgeable and kind, Steve was absolutely great, he helped inform on a lot of stuff that I had mixed feelings on. So far Ive bought all my gear here and prices are really good :)
Friendly, knowledgeable motorcycle shop, buy used machines, parts and apparel.
I was super pumped the first time I came here Steve the owner charged me 20 to mount a carry in tire. Seemed personable. The rim I had mounted didnt work out so I went back to get the stock front on the stock rim and I was charged double. 40 dollars for a carry in Mount and balance. I was told this was at a discount. Poor customer service I feel like they hooked me with the first carry in and then without warning jacked me when the bill was presented. I expected the owners word of 20-25 that is what he told me 40 is excessive. Live and learn with this industry there are the good and bad. The invoice shows 89. I was lied to and cheated.
Always love dealing with these guys and this company, except Anthony. Dont ask him for anything. His answer is always no or he has to order it. Anyone else can always get what you need. Joking by the way, these guys are awesome and I always have good experiences here. Highly recommend!!!
These guys are just great people! I took an annoying amount of time deciding on my 1st bike. They were very patient, they explained everything i needed to understand. They made the entire process very enjoyable!
Ok, the repair prices are yikes like $92.00 an hour.
This place is awesome! Everybody that works there is extremely knowledgeable and have always had a good experience. I would definitely recommend this place
Year later edit after lots of services: Steve and crew are excellent. Like I ordered something but it ended up being unavailable so I asked them to just use their judgment and got a part I was happy with. Otherwise its small things like, we noticed this fluid was low so we added a bit for you.Maintenance services done for half the price of R&S.
Have a nice bike and want it worked on by highly skilled, friendly people who really love motorcycles? Then definitely bring it here. These guys are professional, polite, and actually care about their customers. Great service and very fair prices, too.
Moto-Authority is the best motorcycle shop in Albuquerque, hands down! I would recommend them to anybody who loves their bike and wants top-quality service and repairs. Talk to Steve and Nick: great guys who know their stuff and are more concerned with the quality of their work and your experience than making a quick sale. I have nothing but good things to say about this shop.
Love these guys. Great for getting parts at. They also do great work. My brothers import electrical system was slowly failing and they got straight to the problem each time, and had it back on the road quickly, while keeping the pricing fair and down across the entire set of repairs.
Friendly folks who will get you setup on your current ride or your next one. Very knowledgeable and straightforward. Will come back next time I am looking for a new bike or need to fix the current one.Bikes sold on consignment, just be aware.
I’ve been to moto a bunch of times now and every time they’ve been really good. I bought my bike there a tire, oil, handlebars. Thats why they get two instead of one. But last month I ordered a chain and my sprockets on a Tuesday (9-9-19) and Steve told me they would probably be there by the following Tuesday. I called Thursday and they hadn’t come in. No big deal. But 3 weeks rolled by and nothing. They hadn’t let me know what was going on. Finally they came on 9-27-19 and the sprockets were for the wrong bike. I already had the bike and my only form of transportation taken apart. I take them back and Steve didn’t really even seem apologetic. He seemed like he was going to charge me the remaining amount that the new sprockets would be. They were $5 cheaper so he gave me that money back. It then took them till Wednesday 10-2-19. Steve didn’t even notice that I went in for the sprockets. He didn’t even offer anything for the inconvenience. I was without my bike for almost a week He could tell I was frustrated and annoyed. the least he could’ve done is offered to install them for free or gloves or something.
Honest motorcycle service at a decent price.In the last 4 months, I bought a bike from a dishonest dealership here in town.Recently, I dropped my bike so I took my bike in for a post-crash inspection. Anthony took great care of me. He started off by finding the safety issues from the drop, and then went on to find the stuff the dealership lied to me about. He provided me with an itemized list for the repairs and charged me what I think is a reasonable price for the inspection. He even had his tech realign my front alignment free of charge!I am a satisfied customer and look forward to doing a BBK with these guys in the future.
Excellent place to browse and shop for gear and used motorcycles. The staff are clearly motorcycle enthusiasts and NOT typical used car salesmen. The riding gear selection is small but the brands they sell are top notch.
I have had my motorcycles serviced at Moto-authority several times, have purchased gear multiple times, and purchased a consignment bike through them. Several times they have been able to beat online prices on my gear orders. Their service techs are quick and their customer service is excellent. When buying a bike there, a potential buyer has to keep in mind that the bikes are there on consignment and will be purchased from the owner of the bike not the shop. When I bought a bike through them, they were very honest about what they knew about it.
Steve and his crew have always taken care of me. Wouldn’t recommend a better shop in Abq. Loyal customer for over 10 years.Moto Authority is my one stop shop for life.Appreciate you Steve.
Staff is friendly, the work they do is quality, and the prices they offer are seemingly fair. The reason for 1 star is simply because such a high rated, and professional place simply forgot to replace my tires when they said they would. When I showed up asking to pay the remaining amount and get my bike, they were confused and had to immediately stop what the mechanic was doing so that they could replace my tires before they closed. At first I didnt care much, mistakes happen, but if they can forget an entire work order, whats keeping them from forgetting a nut or bolt during service. Not to mention, when I originally made the appointment, I was going to speak to them about replacing the clutch and doing a valve adjustment, but it makes me nervous to trust them with that if I cant trust them to replace two tires. I know they have good reviews, and I hope anyone who goes has a better experience, but I just dont think Ill go there again, and I dont think I can recommend them to my friends with bikes because I dont want them waiting 2 hours for Moto Authority to rush forgotten service.
Had my front, rear sprocket, chain, tires, brake pads replaced, excellent customer and technical service. I recommend to anyone. Part prices are affordable and competitive with online prices.
Great place to get the things you need. Great selection on hand and if you need to order something they are great about actually calling you the same day it hits there door. In short i prefer moto over all the other shops in town. Oh yeah and there shop rate is absolutely competitive for the area. Love these guys!
Very friendly and up front people. They tell you whats going on with everything and is greatly appreciated for that. Prices are a bit high but motorcycles are not cheap so it comes with that. But overall 5/5!
Good people
Cant sing high enough praise for Steve and all the guys at moto authority. Theyre always friendly, knowledgeable and ready to help you with any questions or problems you have motorcycle related. Steve has some of the best prices around and will walk you through every question you have.
Competent. Honest. Pleasant to deal with. Favorable prices. Moto Authority in Albuquerque is the real deal. What more can you ask for?!?I was treated so well by service manager Anthony Sias, even though I was just passing through NM. He even offered to rearrange their crowded service schedule on a Saturday to address an unexpected issue that was discovered while installing new tires. And their prices were competitive with online discounters. I highly recommend Moto Authority in Albuquerque.
When I need just about anything motorcycle related, Moto-Authority has consistently delivered fantastic customer service and excellent pricing.
Love this place. Great management/owner (long haired fella) 👍
Always helpful thanks steve
A very aplicable place for your moto needs. Friendly very helpful staff! Will definitely make it my go to place for parts.
Honest, friendly, competent. Motorcycle wasn’t running. Went to other shops who said they “fixed it,” but it still wasn’t running correctly. Moto-Authority did an outstanding job of finding the problem and making my bike run better than new!!!! Do not hesitate to take ur bike here.
Moto-Authority is more than just a bike shop.Its a place where all riders and bikers are welcomed as two wheeled enthusiasts. I have been a customer for over 10 years and I can honestly say Moto-Authority has amplified my experience as a motorcyclist.Dont hesitate to stop by and check out what they have to offer!
Steve Caruso is amazing! And his guys do great quality work. I send all my friends here and new people I meet!
Bought a used bike here, and the entire experience was quite great. Low pressure, friendly, and helpful people. They also referred me to my new favorite title and registration company.
Awesome service. They have helped me out twice while I was in New Mexico Adventure riding. Wouldn’t go anywhere else. Thanks Steve and all your staff 5 stars and 2 thumbs up!
Update Steve also had the audacity to call to ask about my review not to apologize for the poor service but to try and justify overcharging me for a carry in tire change. When I let him know that I got the rear done at another shop for 25 he sarcastically stated good luck with them poor business tactics Steve.
Steve and crew are the best in Albuquerque. I tend to do most of my own work but when I dont I only come here. Trust your bike to no one else in town.
Friendly, helpful, accommodating, professional, and very reasonably priced. I will continue to take my motorcycle here for service without hesitation. Thanks for getting me up and running and back out on the road guys!
I needed to get my rear brakes replaced and replace tires. Unlike other repair shops they knew that most of the labor was in the tire removal so changing the brakes at the same time didnt require two separate flat rates. I appreciate that attention and common sense labor costs. A lifetime customer was made.
Great customer service and prices!! Steve is a great shop owner!
I have only this one service experience but it was great. These guys seem to have their poop together. I will do business with them again.Thank You Anthony
There always great to me sales and service.
The customer service here was met beyond expectations! Highly recommend anyone to do business here.
Called Moto Authority and Anthony got my new tires in and mounted and balanced them in in 3 days. Top Notch outfit, I will return and refer anyone looking for service, parts or a bike to these guys.
Best place in town for all your Moto needs thanks for the help guys
I purchased a bike through Steve at Moto Authority, and have to say I am extremely pleased. Got a great value, and Steve showed integrity throughout the deal. I am from out of town, and not only did Steve meet my expectations for communication, but he went above and beyond for me when there were hiccups in the transportation. The other employees also took great care of me when I visited to check out the bike. I would recommend this place to others without hesitation.
Awesome customer service! Im a new rider and their entire staff has been so helpful and very knowledgeable.
I have taken my bike in a couple of time for mods and routine maintenance. Ive been very impressed with the service and speed in and out of the shop. The prices for service cant be beat either.Ill definitely keep bringing my bike here - even it it means hauling it all the way from the West Side.
Have been shopping through these guys for the past 7yrs, their amazing and have great customer service.
They were able to fix my tire with no notice best staff in town
Great place great people.
Fixed my dirt bike! Good pricing, fairly fast turn around. Id consider using them again. And would recommend them as someone worrh checking out.
Steve only has super clean used bikes at what generally seems like fair prices. Definitely check out the inventory often bc they turn the bikes over quickly!
Great place straight up and honest they took care of everything my bike needed
Obly place for motorcycle gear and stuff also for motorcycles. Haha this place is the best! Cant beat there prices on anything even online! Quick to help and fix. The mechanics are truly awesome!
Awesome guys very helpful and patient
Best prices and service ive experienced. Staff cares and knows the populace, with very high customer satisfaction. Support local business, and local business will support you, this shop is prime example.
Great place to get tires, Owner is an awesome businessan!
Excellent service at very affordable prices.
I have always had a great experience with Moto Authority. The staff is very knowledgeable and friendly. From Moto Authority I have purchased gear, a consignment motorcycle, and had service performed; all of which I have been very happy with. Definitely check out their selection of consignment gear, you can find some awesome deals!
I decided to give Moto authority a try rather than a big chain store, because I like supporting local stores. I walked in and they had one pair of the right shoes I was looking for, exactly in my size and in the color I wanted. I tried then on and bought them. They gave me a 15% discount and I was on my way. Needless to say, I was impressed. Of course, they wont always carry the specific item you want, but they can order items in and have then within two days for when they dont. I will definitely be taking my business there again.
