I'm willing to bet that the greatest fear of anybody needing service done to their vehicles is that their mechanic is going to take them for a proverbial ride. Arizona Motorcycle is definitely not that type of shop. Mike and Marco make it their mission to make sure you get back up and riding, and they love what they do!
Mike, the owner, and Marco are avid riders, so they know the importance of having a healthy ride. When you come in with an under-performing bike, know that these guys completely commiserate. More often than not, they probably care more about your bike than you do. That means that your bike will be handled with the utmost care, and in the most expeditious manner possible.
Mike treats everybody that comes to his shop like they're family. There's an unspoken bond between motorcycle riders, and with that bond comes much respect. So, no matter what you ride, know that Mike and his crew will go out of their way to ensure that whatever ails your iron horse is remedied, and that you're back on the road as soon as possible.
Not only do these guys have the desire to make sick bikes healthy, but they also have the know-how to back it up.
Mike, prior to owning his own shop, was a trick motorcycle rider, and if I'm not mistaken, still holds some type of Arizona stoppie record. Certifiable bad ass. He also worked for several years at a major motorcycle shop here in the state before going out on his own.
Marco has spent almost his entire adult life on two wheels. Unless there's an inch of snow on the ground, you better believe that Marco is riding. Besides riding a motorcycle more often than he eats hot meals, Marco is also a certified welder and aircraft mechanic. He has also built competition motorcycles from scratch, and won awards by doing so. Needless to say, these guys are qualified to get you back out on the open roads.
Mike's shop has grown exponentially since the first time I ever visited to have a perpetually flat tire fixed. Before, there were only a couple of booths...about the width of a four car garage. Now, due to his success, Mike has been able to expand the number of booths he has. Not only that, but he and Marco have added a customer lounge complete with a television and couches for any customers needing quick work done. Last I heard, Arizona Motorcycle is also on the verge of getting a powder coating booth.
With their vast knowledge base, and their passion for motorcycles, there really isn't much (if anything) they can't do in the way of motorcycle repair.
If you're somebody who is particular about their ride, and if you don't like that "I'm getting screwed over" feeling when dealing with a mechanic, then Arizona Motorcycle is the place to be. Great service, great people...no scuzzy feeling afterwards!
