Left my bike with Carlos in march of 2016, after all was said and done I received my bike in April…read moreof 2017. Over a year later! Granted, I needed a top end rebuild of my 81 Honda, but every time I called for an update it seems they were "waiting for a bench to open up". I was never given a courtesy phone call like he promised, I always had to call to find out information on my bike. When I finally got the call that my bike was finished I had my driver come by to receive the bike, after giving my driver the bike with no gas tank, seat, or battery Carlos claimed that he didn't own the shop and quickly disappeared. When I received the bike it had new rust spots on the brand new muffler, the tank was sun bleached, and there's was standing water inside all of my turn signals, tail light and headlight. It would appear that it was kept outside with no cover for the duration of its 1 year residence at Brooklyn Motor Works. After more careful inspection. Of the bike I found that the oil in the crankcase had water in it, the carbs were not put on the bike correctly, my fork seals had deteriorated from sitting outside for a year, the new top end they installed was missing some bolts( can chain tension bolt, and tachometer set screw), and the "electrical wiring " that they had charged me for had just not been done. So $2300 later I have a bike that I can't ride, and can't sell until I fix all the damage cause by this shops negligence. Carlos offered to take the bike back and fix some of the problems but at this point I wouldn't trust this shop with anything. I feel like a sucker since I paid in advance, I would ask for a partial refund but it would probably take them 8 months to pay.

What a pleasure it is to have found Peter Boggio at Moto Borgotaro! I was in search of a specific…read morebike I originally bought brand new in 1974 - a BMW R90s. Peter had one on his web site (which is gorgeous) and we started talking back in August of 2022. I was impressed with his knowledge and professionalism and how he truly cared about the bikes he represents. There wasn't a single question he could not answer and always treated me simply great. A man of many interests and talents, and just a terrific guy to deal with. Always good to his word and making sure on accuracy and follow through. Peter's business is in New York, I am in California, and the bike was in Connecticut. No problem! Our communication and subsequent follow through was always top shelf! I highly recommend Peter Boggio at Moto Borgotaro. Peter G. / San Diego

(I am posting this review anonymously)…read more I am conflicted as I write this review. Hugh (owner & chief mechanic) and Fumi (mechanic) are extremely competent, old-school mechanics, and their positive reputation is well-deserved. Hugh is responsible for keeping the sub-culture of vintage British motorcycles alive and well, in the dealer-infested NYC. I have used the mechanic shop since 2016. I really wish them well and want the shop to continue to succeed. However, over the last couple of years I have had bad experiences with them. Josh who is now the shop manager is lacking in people skills, communication, dependability, follow-through, courtesy & humility and other principles of basic customer service. It is not easy to bypass him, given he also blocks the customers from talking to Hugh directly which is odd given part of the great experience with Sixth St Specials used to be the friendly contact with the mechanics who work on your bike. Most recently, the brand new tyres they installed in June 2020 developed side-wall cracks despite just 6 months/3K mile use. I had diligently inflated the tyres to the manufacturer-recommended PSIs, ridden the motorcycle non-aggressively on tarred roads, and winterized the motorcycle on the center-stand in a weather-controlled garage etc. When I asked for help with filing a warranty claim with the tyre manufacturer Josh was unhelpful despite multiple calls and never followed through. I had to contact the tyre manufacturer directly and have them call the shop to get the purchase details in order to file the claim. Last year, I had poor experiences dealing with Josh as well (for e.g. he insisted that my motorcycle did not have liquid cooling even though it did, pushed me towards the brand of tyre he had in stock, mounted the tyres despite my forewarning that the manufacturing dates were more than 5 years old, gave me strict ultimatums on deciding various options of fix for a rear brake light trigger etc.) I believe this issue is fixable and I hope the shop does not lose its hard-earned reputation because of the shop manager.
