Buck is the best. Quick! Reliable! As a female rider I truly appreciated his rapid service. I called him Thursday with details on what was happening to my motorcycle (it was at a repair shop, they hadn’t given me a diagnostic or a quote for 2 weeks) he told me “bring it in, I’ll have you riding in no time”. Dropped it off late Friday he took a look at the damage and gave me a diagnostic & estimated quote. Saturday morning he calls me “are you sitting down? I have news. YOUR BOY IS READY!” Less than 24 hrs he had me riding out of there completely satisfied at the reasonable price but truly shocked and pleased at how quickly he worked. I would definitely recommend him to all my female rides this man knows exactly what he’s doing. Thank you Buck ;)

Buck was Amazing. You gotta be nuts to give him a 1 star review. From the beginning I felt comfortable with Buck, hes super easy to talk and ask questions to & super respectful (im a girl). I called him after I had a fall on my bike and it wasnt working (it was working i just didnt know) and he explained to me what i was doing wrong. After he checked it out, I took a lesson with him on his bike. He told me to text him if i have anymore questions(which i will). This guy is a blessing especially for new riders. Thank You so much Buck, Ill see you soon for another lesson.

BUYER BEWARE: I had buck work on my bmw, he gave me a business card that stated he specializes in foreign vehicles also, Buck said he had one and it’s all he ever drives. He worked on the front end and replaced a couple of very important parts that had to do with the drive system of the vehicle, but In doing so my ABS light, and DSC light came on.I asked him about why they came on all of a sudden after he worked on my vehicle. He responded by telling me “that’s standard and always happens after any front end work, get an alignment it’ll fix the lights” got an alignment, lights went off, so far so good, a couple days later they pop back up.Now that I know more about cars I can say with 100 percent certainty that a highway collision I got into (after the fact, where I had my child in the car) was mostly because of his “repair” job. I really needed the dynamic stability control, and the anti lock braking system to be working. If it was working the collision might not have happened. My car had never hydroplaned before, I had the vehicle for 8 years.Thanks in part to him my car got totalled. My daughter and I could’ve died. He doesn’t seem to care that much about customers because he has better things to do. He is rude, twitchy, and has very shaky hands. Those three things don’t give me much confidence in his abilities. You live, you learn. But thank god we didn’t die or get seriously injured in the wreck.

Buck is the best! He’s my go to guy for my Vespa ET4. Super responsive by phone or text, can come to you if your bike won’t work, and is incredibly flexible and helpful in tough spots. He let me borrow a battery charger while he ordered me some items and is helping me learn how to take care of my scooter more effectively. What else could I ask for?! 🙌

IF YOU’RE A GIRL RIDER DO NOT COME HEREYou literally can’t talk to them for more than a second without them being rude and condescending to you. Super unprofessional and definitely not the way to do business. Lost a customer on the spot.

Hands down a great experience heading down to this shop. Buck made it extremely easy to not only understand my bike much more but to be able to ask away.Other then that I have nothing bad to say about Roberts personality. Down to earth and honest.11/10 would visit again.

This is a really great shop; Buck is super knowledgeable and honest.I had an odd noise occurring at certain engine speeds, and took my bike in not knowing what was wrong or how much it would cost to fix. It ended up being a minor issue; Buck fixed it quickly, easily and free of charge. He could have told me it was something expensive and I wouldnt have known better, but he was totally honest and straightforward.I took my bike to Buck on the recommendation of an acquaintance who had similar things to say. I will absolutely be back here when my bike needs something, and strongly recommend the place.

I went here and met with Buck to help me install a fender eliminator on my R3... the shop is literally 2 blocks away from my house and he was able to get the job done at a fair price. I will come back to him for any other motorcycle repair needs.

Extremely professional they took the time to ask about my riding style and explained different tires and which one would fit me. They didnt try to just throw the most expensive tire at me either

Buck is a great guy for a one man show. Hes reasonable and works on a variety of motorcycles. I have yet to see him turn something down where theres no job too small or too big...I have personally taken him everything from a dirt bike to a Harley-Davidson and a 20 year old sport bike.

I rarely do reviews and I came across this shop and it was really a pleasant experience. The owner Buck is very passionate about his craft. I just got a new Harley and I plan on making Buck my go to mechanic. He’s very upfront and isn’t for the sensitive skin. Great experience overall. Good job Thanks man

Review №18

I came to Buck’s shop a day after my motorcycle accident, my bike wasn’t turning on and I had no clue why because the damages were only cosmetic and I had just bought it the day I crashed it. Even after telling him I would pay for whatever damages that occurred during the accident to get my bike back up and running, Buck being an honest man showed me that the reason the bike wouldn’t start was due to my gear shifter being bent and he would help me for free. He could’ve said something was bad with the engine or transmission due to me being inexperienced with bikes and I would’ve believed him. Now I’m having him totally customize my bike and he’s even helping me order the right brands/parts. Please bring your business here Buck is an honest man trying to make a living, Buck is the last person to scam or lie to a customer for extra cash. Your business means much more to him.

I got my son an ATV, after trying to get it running correctly i had no success, so i gave up and decided to take it to a professional. Buck not only got it running correctly he taught me a few things. Like how to check the oil, how to ajuste the limiter so the atv wont go to fast, what engine oil i should use. I don’t know Anything about atv’s so thank you Buck for some knowledge.

Review №23

Buck is probobly the best mechanic I have ever met. He actually cares about the people he works with. And I do mean with. He included me in every step he took with my bike. I am converting a Harley Sportster into a Bobber and Buck managed this project like a pro. Other mechanics Ive known pad there costs or charge crazy shop rates, but Buck actually told me to put my check book away. That we didnt need to spend money on things I thought we needed. He was right. Because of his honesty and professionalism I was able to spend less than half of what I had budgeted for the build. He has earned my respect and admiration. I will always bring my bikes to Buck and SoCal Motors. If you need work done, bring it here. You will be blown away.

Buck is now the ONLY mechanic I allow to touch my bike. He understands the classic value of my 1984 Honda and treats it with the respect it deserves. His pricing is fair, his work is top-notch, and he is HONEST.

This place was awesome. Tucked away in a nice little part of spring valley. I had called 10 different repair shops and ALL of them were @$$holes, arrogant and they sounded like i was inconveniencing them. I called these guys and they actually seemed like they wanted my business and were extremely nice to talk to. I went in, they did a full FREE inspection and cut no corners and were extremely honest. These guys know what they are doing. They have my business in the future. I will post again as i get more services done by them.

Review №31

This very small repair shop is located in an industrial park and was not easy to see while riding through. When I found the shop all the doors were closed and my bike was the only one in the area so my first thought was that they were either closed for day or had gone out of business. A man saw me looking at the shop and came out to talk to me, and he was extremely rude to me. He made no effort to try to earn my business, he seemed happy to have me give upset and leave. There is no way that Im going to be treated in that way and give them my money to do so. It is no wonder that he had no customers. ZERO stars if that was an option.

Buck IS THE BEST! He helped me SO much with my bike! I had to fix the fork seals on my Suzuki SV650S. He gave me a great deal and fixed a couple of other minor things also. He works with your schedule to bring in your bike and a major + he does it all frm A-Z on all bikes! Cant beat that with a bat! Lol Im also a new ridder and he gave me many tips that Ive already used being out on the roads. If you need anything GO SEE BUCK!
