I ride a lot. I have 2018 Goldwing, which I bought 4/17/21, and I have over 21,000 miles on it. JR, Ryan and team are top notch. Skilled, accommodating, friendly, helpful, and they give a military discount. I had accessories like the truck and rack installed, maintenance, and tires. Each item was easy to schedule, and done while I waited. I only own the bike anymore. πŸ˜πŸ˜‰ I try to schedule all my bike work when I come to Florida, and if I need work, I make the trip back if I am out of town.

I was recently in the market to buy a motorcycle, and wanted something pre-owned. I started checking cycle trader, and some other places online. I found a bike I liked at a good price, and contact the dealer (South County Honda) and Ryan replied. He was helpful, and provided some better photos and information on the bike. I made arrangements to drive down to Venice on the following weekend. I had already arranged a loan with my bank.I drove down, and had a little difficulty getting to it since the address I had did not list North or South (and of course I set my GPS to the wrong one first, lol. That and the roads are all torn up due to construction). But we arrived, and met Ryan. Very nice guy... low pressure sales, and helpful! I took the bike for a test ride... and like it. So we negotiated the price a bit, and I bought it. Ryan even gave me a nice deal on a new helmet for the ride home.Great company to do business with... very professional and helpful. They took care of contacting my bank, and getting the loan completed, and made the purchase very easy.Highly Recommended! Great people to work with!

The manager JR damaged my motorcycle, he lied about the damage, I proved with pictures, he was still lied, the owner who I talked to he was asking me if I want to sue them, I told him no, but the JR manager and his liewill come back and hunt him with karma, never will use the shop again, bad business. Today i got respond from South County Honda, the Owner is talking around the the damage he is making things up! JR the manager was working on my 1987 Honda Magna in excellent condition, I head some rust in the tank and some debris kluged up the choke, JR used some harsh chemical cleaner, the fluid was dripping down on the air intake cover and eat up the paint, he is liar, he never started the bike so I head no idea about the carburetor was clogged up also, careless useless manager work, second time he complained to me that the Owner dont want my bike here. I believe because I have shown him pictures from my bike before was taken to the shop. Make the long story short JR repaired the carburetor for $1,160.00 the bike started in the shop but i have not driven the bike, I toke the bike home with a trailer, returned the trailer came home started the bike up shifted in first gear and she died, my clutch was compromised, thanks to JR, this shop is compromised by bad elements, will never used again and will put out the word to say away. I have all the pictures to proved, same pictures I handed over to theowner. Thank for looking.

Dropped off my bike on Saturday morning to have the rear brakes repaired,oil changed and just a good look over since it has set for about a year and a half. Left thinking I would go pick it up next Saturday maybe depending on there shop load. Then about 3 hours later I get call saying your bike is ready. I want to thank everyone for an awesome job and timing. I know it cant be like this all the time but I want you know I really appreciate your customer service and the friendly greeting. You have earned a long time customer.

For over 30 years, SCH is THE reason to own a motorcycle in Sarasota County. Three generations of family operations. As an over half a century rider, personal attention of this business is Priceless!

Just pulled up to make a major purchase at 4:45 and they said their closed when the door says open til 6pm. Said they will reopen next Tues. Sorry this is bad business. Not to mention the lady that came back from her vehicle to tell is they are closed was pretty rude about it.

I guess some guy named Jr worked on the bike tire, and I posted a copy of the receipt and sent a copy of the receipt to the ownerIm a front line worker at the emergency room at the trauma center at the ER Hospital in Sarasota and I cannot make it to the motorcycle shop during the week during their hours its not convenient for me.So last week I had a friend drop my old motorcycle front wheel and rim off with a new tire to be put on as I wanted to save them some time and me some money as its not a big deal for me to take my front tire off my bike. So my friend went in there and droped the new tire with the rim and paid the shop thirty bucks to take the old tire off the rim and put the new one on in balance it.Well when I got my new tire back on my old rim, I noticed three things... a that the rim had been all scratched up from when they were taking the tire off and they also bent the sidewall of the rim on one side where the scratches were. I also noticed that they took off every single weight on the rim and did not replace one single weight so I imagine my tire is not even balanced.Im so bummed I dont know what to do I dont think I want to go in there and confront them because I have already been verbally abused going in there and them asking them a simple question and it is terrible customer service that I have received in the past I do not why it no way I have ever went back. I own 12 motorcycles and have had motorcycles on my life and race vintage arma motorcycles and it is hands-down be worse customer service place Ive ever been to in my life and I only go in there under extreme duress and an emergency situation.I have been there in the past in the middle of the afternoon during the week and the manager has been sitting in the back drinking beer acting half drunk, just complaining and whining about customers and how bad they are.. that should have been a clue big enough to never go back in there but I just like to give local places that chance. My bad I guess..If I could give them negative points I would..

I strolled in on a whim during Covid to check the inventory and they had the exact CBR500R in red that I was after. The salesperson was awesome, informative, no pressure and answered all of my questions. I submitted my credit app on Saturday morning and picked it up when i was out of work at the end of the day, they even helped me load it into my minivan. Highly recommend these guys.

ABSOLUTELY the best and only place to buy a Honda. We bought two Honda Groms today. South County Honda went above and beyond anything we could have imagined or expected from a business to make it happen! Staff was friendly, professional, and knowledgeable. Will never go anywhere else for our bikes. Thank you South County Honda, we appreciate you making our experience the very best.

Review β„–18

Waste of time. Immediately made me feel like an inconvenience upon arrival for even bringing my bike in to be looked at. Came in with an issue that they just couldn’t be bothered to figure out. Initially they tried to tell me my bike was out of gas when I brought it in with 2+ gallons. They basically charged me to put an additional 22 miles on my bike, charged me for β€œtinkering” with it. I was told it was running fine yet when I get there to pick it up it starts and does the same thing I brought it there for. Employees were rude, lazy and inexperienced.

Honda Lawn mower engine repair. First experience with SCH and I couldnt be happier. I called as my mower died with my lawn half done. They told me to bring it in and I had it back the next day. I thought it was a carb problem but they found the exhaust valve was stuck due to a carbon build up. The mower was fixed, serviced and cleaned and runs perfectly.

I have been using South County Honda for 10+ years. As a younger rider Steve and J.R are very knowledgeable and have given me tips and the correct service I need when I need it. Shawn is a great and detailed sales person. I own Yamahas now and still use them for tires and routine service that is outside of my area of knowledge. Definitely the best place to go for good power sports service in Venice.

My review here keeps getting deleted so Im attaching a photo receipt this time to prove Im real. Growing up in Englewood and riding hondas since I was 15 there wasnt any other easy places to go for tire changes and parts/service. Though Im handy with a wrench I have used this store many times. Most recently I brought in my Suzuki Hayabusa custom for a front tire change only (My rear tire is a 330 and they are not capable of changing it). Sat in the waiting room and listened to the tech swear and throw tools around fustrated my wide tire bike wouldnt fit on the lift, then got help from another eventually rigging straps to the front forks to lift the front end, then continued to throw a fit like a child and eventually finished the job. I left and on the ride home the bike vibrated horribly. From home I noticed no weights on the rim anywhere, Called and they told me they didnt have to balance it sometimes they just get lucky it must be something else. I later corrected this myself with Dyna Beads to balance it, fixed the problem. Another time I had another bike in for tire changes and when I left the speedometer didnt work, Immediately made a U-turn, headed back, and they charged me for a new speedo cable but not for labor, fixing the issue. Another time I was here looking for generic push pins for a sport bike, non-honda, and brought one with me to match up. Parts desk told me they couldnt help at all without a honda part number.Basically if your not getting a standard oil change on a standard honda cruiser find somewhere else. I have taken Honda cruisers here, Honda sport bikes, and now custom bikes. Since these Ive started going to places in north Sarasota and the trip is worth it.
