Met Cafe through a friend last year. Let him know I was looking to get my 15' dyna tuned but had also rode through some ice plants recently. Took my bike in and before tuning, he recommended getting my handling and steering looked at and sure enough had some issues with neck bearing, engine mounts, etc He dialed everything in, threw on a new exhaust, cams, fuel pump and 8 months later my bike is still running like new. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Cafe is an experienced, knowledgeable, reliable person in the industry and recommend him to everyone.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Cafes Customs is the place to have your Harley Davidson worked on by a true leader in the industry. When I choose any shop, I start by observing the cleanliness of the shop and then take mental note of the investment in tools and equipment because that's typically the same investment the owner will make into your experience. I found Cafes Customs to be immaculately kept which shows pride of ownership. And his equipment is absolutely the best which means he has the latest technology at his fingertips. When I brought my first bike to him for a cam, tune, etc., Casey asked me far more questions than I asked him for the purpose of understanding my riding style. Instead of me telling him how to do his job, I listened to his advice which resulted in me spending less and being far more satisfied with the upgrades. Highly recommend this shop! read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]I've been bringing my Harley to Casey for years, and every experience has been just as positive as the first.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] From motor builds and tuning to suspension setups and bars, he truly does it all--and at the highest level. Several of my friends have trusted him as well, and we've all had the same great results, with bikes running flawlessly from the street to the track. If you're looking for someone who genuinely cares and knows exactly what they're doing, Casey is your guy. read more

KC is one of the very few people I am comfortable taking my custom builds too, he has worked on a few of my bikes and by far superior service. He is building out another one currently which is my 2024 Lowrider ST. [[HIGHLIGHT]]His focus on detail and making sure that I am aware of any upgrades or suggestions - he communicates this right away.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]He has sent progress picts so Im not sitting around just guessing what is going on as most of us who really ride and are eager to get back up and running[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]KC is very communicative about what is the right suggestion and ideas he has, It's up to me to ask the questions if I dont get it and understand.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] All in all, I can't wait to see how the real dyno tune comes out for the bike and what we are able to achieve. This is going to be a solid build. Bagger gets droped off next for those upgrades. read more

My experience with Cafe is 2/2, I'm someone who is pretty OCD when it comes to the bike and who works on it...very few that I'll trust. Cafe is hyper focused on the details and treats everything as if it were his own and only wants to deliver the best everytime. I took the bike for a much needed tune and in return I've got a whole new experience of what I never thought this engine could do...everything now running in "crescendo" and she's rippin ! Highly recommend anyone that wants the maximum out of their motor and get it done right the "first time" then reach out to Cafe and let that motor EAT !! read more

Casey is an absolute legend! He's a great mechanic and works wonders on the dyno. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The fact that he's a good person with a customer service oriented mindset is refreshing.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I can always trust that the work will be done correctly, in a timely manner, and at a reasonable cost. It's easy to see why people from all over Southern California, and some from much further, bring their bikes to Cafes Customs. 5 stars every time! read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]I always have an excellent experience at cafes customs.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]Cafe really knows his stuff when it comes to motorcycle repairs.

Returning customer duh!!! Only needed a little old clutch adjustment but wanted the magic hands on my bike only! Cafe left me a smooth clutch and also rerouted my cable giving me more to work with later on. My bike always runs so much nicer after it's gotten the CC treatment! Quick turn around! read more

Cafes Customs - Clean Bike! - Motorcycle Parts & Supplies Near Me - Temecula, California

I took my Road Glide to Casey a year ago and had him install all the goodies (cam, lifters, pushrods, lifter guides, etc) and do a tune on the bike. He has since provided me with info and even hooked me up fixing my bike after a self induced problem arose. This guy is a stand up, honest and hard working dude. I send a text I get a call within minutes with an informed answer. I've tuned cars, trucks and now my bike and have never received the same treatment from any other shop or mechanic like I have here at Cafes Customs. Buyer beware- if you want a bike that absolutely shreds the pavement Casey is your go to guy! Couldn't recommend a better spot to take a motorcycle to. read more

brought in a new 24 road glide for a tune was charged $630 total for a " box tune " i was present with my bike mechanic buddy and he said it isn't a box tune and he can "modify / tweek it " after install I've had a ton of issues , backfire, massive fuel consumption and lagging in mid range , sputtering and almost dying at idle after his backtracking and saying he can't modify due to not having the right equipment for my bike I have been going back and forth for a few weeks for a refund . he offered a $230 refund which I did not accept . I'll be disputing with credit card company and possibly small claims , or more depending on damage to bike after it leaves dealer inspection this week . Casey at cafe claims to " want me happy and cares more about passion of riding and client satisfaction " this is false , like other statements he made with a witness present I might add. I'll add video of the bike and screen shots of some communication to bear witness for others after contacting several other Harley tuners in the area they informed he is new to the tuning game and unfamiliar with the Harley's that he promotes services for . I've given him plenty of opportunity to do the right thing but only wants to keep the money for a job that is harming , not helping my bike . [[HIGHLIGHT]]He dodges responding to emails and only wants to call , usually during hours I'm at work and have told him this in writing , this is to avoid accountability in writing .[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] now the bike won't even start and I've got Biggs Harley getting it Tuesday, this is super frustrating and we lost a couple weekends of use on the bike which I'll also seek indemnification for if it goes to claims . all of this over $400 as a business owner I'd never burn a client over a few pesos . I find it unprofessional and his lack of accountability and customer service is second to none ! his prices are high as well , however my experience isn't good , I'd have still bought my suspension upgrades through him had he owned his mistakes. Now our group will no longer use him and we will share this experience to hopefully curb others from falling victim to inferior service. ill post vids when the bike was running and some videos as evidence so you can decide if you want to take the bike here . he did tell me there are better tunes but assured me this "budget oriented tune would be fine and I wouldn't have issues " yet here we are ! and everyone else , including his friend at chopper gallery do the same tune for $350 , but due to him saying it "is NOT a box tune his was better and he can adjust it " we decided to go with Casey at double the cost . after install he admitted he can't and said it is "just a box tune " this is predatory sales , sloppy service and wasting our hard earned dollars and valuable time! I'll include videos of this and screen shots of the little bit of written communication we have when my son is with me as he is tech savvy and I'm not (hence the ability for him to defraud me on the tune with his crafty words ), there's a reason he won't put too much in writing ! [[HIGHLIGHT]]most shady people are afraid of being held accountable!![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]I'm not happy I had to write this review and don't wish to harm anyone's business, but this was his choice as I told him my intentions prior to the review and dispute on the card .[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] now im actually feeling like I'm doing the right thing by protecting others from this fraud I'd never do this to a client or any human for that matter . it equals theft and is dishonest in my opinion and experience. buyer beware you deserve better anyone else that has issues with this business i encourage you to dispute the charges and leave a review read more

Cafe does literally God's work with all types of MC's. Absolutely legend and very professional.

I installed a CR483 cam and had an issue with my tune. Cafe made a new tune from the ground up and got my scoot running smooth

recently came back for a suspension upgrade on my street bob, and a 5k service. I can't recommend Cafe's Customs enough. great shop, great service, honest with advice and recommendations. my suspension makes the ride quality of my motorcycle so much nicer than stock. the height gave me more lean angle to feel more confident going into corners, and the rear suspension makes it super comfortable. 5k service dialed everything in. read more

Cafe has taken my bike from stock to a fully built 103 from the crank up. His skills on the dyno are incredible and he spends time on all the details. He is willing to listen to your needs and he will exceed your expectations! read more

A friend recommended this place and I have to agree along with all the other 5-Star reviews that this is the place to go if you want your bike to be taken care of. Showed up and told Casey "Cafe" what I wanted and this guy delivered to include some small but very important and beneficial recommendations that had me thinking "wait, did he do some throttle work or something"?! Bike felt so much lighter that it's just running so much smoother since going through the full alignment and service! I'll definitely be back for future work and I highly recommend this place to anyone else who wants their bike to be at its best! read more

I want to give a big shout out to Casey for taking such good care of my bike after it was treated like sh*t by another shop. The reviews speak for themselves. He turned my bike into an absolute ripper after his tune session. Took the time to take my exhaust off and realign it so my exhaust wasnt hitting the cam cover. The bike is night and day. All gears feel perfect and butter smooth throughout all RPM ranges. I couldnt be more pleased with his quality of work and communication. First time on the phone with him, he spent 30 min explaining everything and listening to what i wanted out of the bike. As a business owner myself, the way he operates his business is on point. Casey is the only one i will trust to touch my bike from now on. Thanks Cafes Customs!!! read more

This company sux. They charged me 20.00 for two bolts shipped across country to South Carolina when I needed and bought an axel cap for a dyna. All I got for 20.00 is two bolts I could have bought at ACE Hardware for 2.00. [[HIGHLIGHT]]No help on the phone.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] They really thought I would pay 20.00 for two bolts. Only an IDIOT would buy from this company. I've been building bikes for 40 years and tried this company out for the first time. Never again. read more

Cafe Customs Review My very first experience with a Harley Repair Shop was an absolute nightmare. I was ready to lose all faith in Harley Humanity. My painter, Mando at MCC Designs, kept me mentally afloat and made a recommendation. Cafe Customs. What he didn't tell me was Casey, aka Cafe, was the Harley Jesus. Cafe not only showed me the light...he cured my check engine light. Cafe is a rare breed and in a league of his own. The only thing better would be two Cafes to serve more of the Harley community. He's humble, genuine, honest, and meticulous. He's passionate not only about his work but YOUR ride. Yes he treats your bike as if it were his own. I've seen it with my own eyes. So if you're a new rider get ready to be disappointed going anywhere else after seeing Cafe. If you've been in the game for a while get ready to level up. Sorry Cafe. You're stuck with me bro. Stuck with all of us. read more

I brought my bike the 70mi from San Diego to Cafe to work his magic. 100% was worth the trip. Fixed an oil pressure issue, dyno tune, shocks, clutch, and a couple small things that I probably would have missed if I didn't have him give things a good once over. The bike rips, the tune transformed the bike, shocks ride on rails, clutch feels connected to rear wheel instead of slush. Put 200mi on in last 2 days just after work, definitely renewed my love for the bike. read more

I was referred to Cafes Customs by word of mouth. I didn't second guess this persons trust so I knew it was intriguing. Did a frame up build with a dark horse bottom end, S & S 128 big bore with other compatible components. Casey did such a good job tuning the bike and getting it dialed. He made sure I was comfortable with the throttle settings and gave me options which I couldn't argue with. If you have motor work done to your bike and need a tune, Casey will get you squared away! Check this dude out! read more

I took my 2021 heritage softail classic to Cafe Customs to install my LA chopper handlebars. Heated grips looks really clean. All the wires are hidden bike handles great love them t-bars other minor tricks of the trade, he does really well with the motorcycles and anything you want done for motor rebuilds to frame alignments to Dino tuning i've been taking my motorcycles to him for 17+ years will not trust anyone else with my motorcycle. He treats every motorcycle like it's his own and safety first make sure all the clients are safe when they leave his shop look them up check them out he won't be sorry. read more

I can't say enough good things about this shop! The owner goes above and beyond to get your bike the service it needs. The moment you talk to him you can hear how passionate and knowledgeable he is when it comes to anything motorcycle and Harley related. Probably one of the most straight forward shops you can deal with. He doesn't try and sell you unnecessary parts or upgrades. You tell him your budget and goals and he will sit down and give you different options and ideas and explains everything in depth. I recently had a Dyno appointment with him super last minute and he stayed after hours until 11pm to make sure I was a happy customer and sure to return again in the near future. Thanks again Cafe! read more

I'm a fellow HD Tech, got my bike dyno tuned by Cafe Customs about a week ago. My bike is day and night difference! Power band is more smoother, no more back fire! Even though I already had a Dynojet Power Vision tuner. Original my 2019 FXDR had a 114" but then built to a SE 117" stage 4 kit. In the 1st test ride I noticed a huge difference! Today about a week later I rode a nice ride up to Julian on the back roads. That's when I really noticed a difference! In Power! Acceleration! Power curve! And all MPGs!! As a fellow harley tech and bike builder, I'm a 100% satisfied with Cafe Customs Dyno Tune!! I've found a new excitement in riding my bike!!!! read more

08 1125r The STARS speak for themselves and word of mouth speak fact. A Real person Real to his craft There's Harley people then there's Buell people. They are not the same. Called every Harley shop in SoCal, Nothing. Went to a pops Harley shop, basics. Got a hit from a FB group about Cafe (that's his name) hit dude up and he's solid. Knowledgeable and Prompt. Years of Wisdom on both HD and Buell. Got bike AAAd and he kept communication from drop-off to completion. Did the fabrications needed with OEM and quality aftermarket parts even did a vibration torque check on the bolts. (you know because vibrations.. come on, what mechanic cares that much) Worth the 3 hour round-trip drive for this kind of personality and service. Overall it's the Vibe for me. Oh forgot,, his prices are Legit too read more

Cafe was recommended to me by a friend of mine, so I decided to reach out to him to start picking his brain about potential work on my 2022 Low Rider S. He was super fast to respond to every question I had and was willing to sit down at whatever time worked for me. When meeting with him he really tries to get to know the customer's riding style, what they desire from the bike, and gives solid recommendations that fit what you want perfectly. He has a genuine passion for what he does and is one of the most straight forward, no bull-shit mechs that I have ever spoken to. Once I finally decided to pull the trigger on my cam job, he was super quick to gather the parts and start on my bike. The turn around time was very fast and he sent frequent updates. Getting to his shop, he was genuinely excited to see what I thought about the work and made it an even better experience than I could've imagined. He even did a couple little extra things which I was super happy with, and explained them in detail while doing the walk-around during pickup. I was already a happy customer before leaving Cafe's shop, but getting on the bike took it to a whole new level. This bike absolutely rips and runs flawlessly, this man knows his way around a Dyno and isn't just 'another guy with a Dyno', because this feels like a whole different bike than the one I dropped off. I couldn't recommend Cafe enough. He's reliable, quick, responsive, and an all around solid dude. Also, this man keeps one of the cleanest shops you will ever see. #onlybangers read more

5 Stars!!! Just picked up my bike from its latest service at Cafes Customs and WOW, Casey made it feel like a new bike. Once again exceeding my expectations. Backstory...Casey brought this bike to life way back in 2005 when he was at the Dealership - he unpacked it from the create (put a 95" kit in before I picked it up). In the past 17 years and 107,000 miles of working on this bike, Casey has always had it running perfect, that means a lot when you're heading out on a cross-country trip. Casey's knowledge of me and how I ride, made it easy for him to update the bike with better equipment. He added new rear suspension, new power clutch, new taillights & signals, new headlight, new handlebars, new heated grips. I'm glad everyone is finding out what I've known for years - Casey's the BEST read more

Decided to head up to Temecula and leave my bike with Casey at cafes Customs to Dyno tune my bike. This man knows his stuff! He took his time getting to know my riding style and listening to what I wanted to get out of this Dyno tune. The man went above and beyond! He went through the bike And tightened up a few loose bolts that could of been an issue down the road. After talking, we added a few new parts to help the bike stay fresh and up to par! Casey kept me in the loop the entire time he had my bike, through texts and he responds quick as well. Glad i made the trip up to cafes Customs because I dropped off a slug and I picked up a ripper. Id recommend cafes Customs to my friends and I will definitely be back for more work here. read more

Casey at Cafes Customs is second to none! I was referred to Cafes Customs by Karson from The Chopper Gallery. I had work done to my bike I bought from The Chopper Gallery by another mechanic. Unfortunately, he was unable to tune it correctly. In the end, Casey figured out that my exhaust was causing the issue. He took the time to figure out the issue. He tuned my bike like a magician after installing the new 2 into 1 exhaust and has my bike running fantastic. My 107 Streetglide went from 79 HP to the rear wheel stock to an impressive 114. Additionally, Casey spaced my floor boards, installed heavy duty clutch springs, and fixed my excessive oiling issue by installing a breather system. He took the time to make my bike right and takes pride in his work. Casey treated my bike like it was his own. Thank you Karson for referring me and thank you Cafes Customs for exceptional customer service! i am stoked to have an outstanding mechanic for for HD i can count on. read more

Casey is an absolute legend when it comes to anything two wheels. His approach at his shop is to give the best riding experience you can have while going balls fast! Cafe is definitely know for his "blue magic" tunes. His knowledge of the riding experience and feel of how a fast bike coupled with his work on 1000s of different bikes throughout his career allows him to have that knowledge of what works and what doesn't . [[HIGHLIGHT]]He is the guy if you want that white glove treatment.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I have been riding the piss out of my 22' fxlrs and without his expertise my bike would have exploded by now. [[HIGHLIGHT]]He is a straight shooter and an amazing human being and always treats people with love even if you want to do something that makes no sense, he will kindly advise you of other more reasonable approaches[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] . One thing I really realized to be true is as a rider myself , there is no way I know more about the overall riding experience and wrench work than Mr. Casey Fernandez - The Walter White of tuning motorcycles. read more

No words can describe how happy you will be once you get your bike back from Casey. Attention to detail is his thing for sure. Not only does your bike go in for what you want but comes out running better than you ever thought. If your having to think twice about going don't, head on down and get your bike rippin the way it should. read more

Where to start, Casey is a genius. Ha but i was left a 2015 street Gide by my dad who passed away and didn't get to finish it. After asking around cafes was recommended so i headed down we ended talking for about an hour and i knew Casey was the guy for the Job. The hours he spent on this i can only imagine we ended up doing one of Casey's custom clutch things (not sure what it is but it's so much better). Suspension front and back and some powder coating. Let's put it this way he went so far beyond what i expected. When i saw it i damn near almost cried this bike is the last thing i have left from my pops and i feel Casey felt that and went ahead and finished this build in his honor and i know he would be pumped. I WILL NEVER BRING THAT BIKE ANYWHERE ELSE. Is seriously doesn't feel like the same bike. If you go anywhere else i feel sorry for you cafes is a hidden gem! read more
