    After pic - Like it never happened!
    Bill D.

    Absolutely professional and amazing experience from start to finish. I was in a tough spot with a recently crashed motorcycle, and working overtime shifts every day of the week. I needed the paint/damage on my motorcycle repaired (pics attached), but I couldn't even make it to a shop during business hours and most of them wouldn't quote me over the phone. On a whim, I found 1Motiv and Lee Buzon through Yelp, and I'm never using another service again. Picked up immediately, came to MY house on the SAME day, at 8pm at night. I've had experience with craigslist "mechanics" and "painters", and Lee is anything but that. He not only fixed all the scratches and a nasty dent that chipped off an inch of my tail fairing, but he did it so well I can't tell it ever happened. The paint matched perfectly, the lines on the motorcycle are the same (this wasn't a simple buff job, he must have had to fill in the fairing with putty), and it was all for a reasonable price. You're basically getting a fully qualified mechanic and painter, on call at your front door with 1Motiv. It's a bonus that Lee operates like a complete professional and even gave me some useful tips and advice for my bike and what to watch out for. I have no doubt that Lee's wrenching skills are as good as his painting, do yourself a favor and the next time you need a mechanic or a paint job, don't waste time on craigslist or hauling your motorcycle off to a bunch of shops in the Bay -- just call 1Motiv and I'm sure you won't be disappointed. If you don't know, now you know!!! Thanks Lee!

    Lee fixed our bike on the same day great job.

    I was an actual customer, im not an ex employee or a business competitor, yelp took down my…read moreoriginal review because of pressure from KC Engineering, but the facts are the facts and im warning others that this place of business is bad. I Do NOT recommend . First off I went in because I needed tires, I had a blow out in my rear tire and decided to just get both replaced. So, the tires were a little pricey and the labor charge was insane. But I value quality over price so I went for it. The tires are terrible (Michelin) it doesn't seem balanced and it just doesn't feel right. Usually with new tires I get this secure sensation when I ride ( not this time) Secondly, they were pitching me on other services that I found strange because I just had them done at a school with an instructor. Thirdly, on my way home, my storage box fell off my bike on the freeway, when I went back, they claimed they hadn't touched it, it was odd to me because, I ride everyday and had no issues. Lastly, instead of apologizing, I get a mechanic yelling at me saying i was at fault. When I asked to speak to the owner, I was told that he lives out of state. After all this mess I spent hours reading past reviews and found that others had similar experiences, but my biggest takeaway was how the owner/s replied to some of the commentators. I found it defensive, rude and never taking accountability, always deflecting the bad service or work they've done. Truth is truth, my review is based on my horrendous experience I had at this place of so called business.

In my own experience I bought a tire and I paid for the installation , I noticed that they applied a bunch of Vaseline petroleum jelly all around the tire so quickly and without asking me for approval, I didn't ask why since they claim to be professionals., as soon as I left the shop and I tried to make a right turn l felt to the right without warning, the bike felt on top of my right leg in the middle of the street trapping my leg, breaking m right side mirror and my front brake. I couldn't get up but none of the employ or that shorty owner of the shop came to help or at least come and see f I was OK. One of thei customer helped me lift the bike so that I can get my leg out of it, but if I hadn't ask for help I don't know for how long I would have remained laying down in the middle of the street in front of their shop , risking my self getting hit by a car, I bro the bike back inside the shop and had them install a brand new brake lever and a mirror, I asked them why they put grease on the tires even if they are used tires, and they said it was mandatory to do that to all tires sales.

I brought my motorcycle in after a low-speed drop that left my steering feeling notchy. Shawn and the team did a thorough front-end inspection, including test riding the bike, checking alignment, and identifying that the steering head bearings needed to be replaced. On top of that, they had no issue honoring my request to double-check the wheel bearings, front suspension, and rear wheel alignment. It's now been 1,500 miles and a full track day since the service, and I'm still extremely satisfied with the results. The bike feels planted, smooth, and confidence-inspiring. If you're looking for honest, detail-oriented work and excellent support -- Tokyo Moto is the place to go. I'm very grateful for their help.

I'll definitely be coming back - I'd highly recommend them :)

I've been riding scooters for 20 years in SF as my main transportation for work. 18 months ago I was referred to Moto Java because my scooter was about to die and I'd need a replacement soon. Mike, Ben and their team at Moto Java gave me an honest assessment about what needed to be fixed, gave me an itemized invoice showing me it'd be better I traded my old scooter for parts and bought something new. They appreciated I was an experienced rider, knew what I wanted and didn't try to oversell me on something I didn't want and gave me a fair price for my trade in. My previous scooter dealers/mechanics have given me a wide range of mileage for routine maintenance. Mike and Ben gave me an easy, clear number to remember so I bring my scooter in for routine maintenance based on the specific scooter I bought. Every time I call for an appointment Moto Java gets me in fast and finishes earlier than estimated. They also give me an itemized receipt of what was done and a heads up to what the next maintenance bill will cost so I'm not caught off guard. My review is based on my scooter that I bought from Moto Java. However I know they sell and service and sell a variety of motorcycles like long range highway motorcycles to mountain bikes to scooters. Moto Java is easily accessible off S Van Ness. Mike and Ben are always up for a chat about what they sell, no pressure sales and offer honest estimates about any repairs you might need. Definitely check out Moto Java.
