I saw their ad on Facebook and looked them up a little further. They had 27 likes on their facebook page. Very low. Also noticed that they were less than 1/2 mile from my house.
I knew this meant that it was someone that was starting their own thing and said screw it. Let's give this guy a chance.
I sent them a message and Gus responded within an hour. It was $65 to do an inspection on my bike. Being a new rider and having a few little issues I said screw it. I'm all for supporting a small business and especially a start up.
Let me tell ya. Gus and Dark Side Customs was awesome! He did a great job on my 2013 Honda Sabre. I'm a new rider and have only been riding about a year. Thing is, I know cars. Just not bikes so much. Gus said I needed brakes and plugs. He showed me what was wrong and why. He got the parts and installed them and took it for a test drive.
When Gus called me to let me know my bike was ready I was hesitant as it was my first time with him and was hoping he corrected my concerns. Well...he definitely did! My bike is running better than it did when I bought it. He did a thorough inspection and was 100% honest with me. He did me right.
If you have a bike that needs work, give Gus and Dark Side Customs a shot. Pricing was more than fair. His responses were very timely and most of all...he was HONEST! Honesty and integrity go much further with me than any BIG shop and their fancy atmosphere. I'd trust my bike with Gus over anyone else. read more
