I am including the following for transparency and as a word of caution regarding this 2016…read moreHarley-Davidson XL1200 Sportster and my experience with Wild Prairie Harley-Davidson in Eden Prairie, MN. I purchased the bike on March 5, 2024 with 15,253 miles. Over the next year I added approximately 10,000 miles and kept up with regular maintenance throughout ownership. At the time of purchase, I also bought what is presented as the Harley-Davidson Extended Service Plan (administered by Continental Service Provider), with the understanding that it would provide meaningful coverage in the event of a major mechanical failure. On July 29, I began a trip from Minneapolis to Sturgis. The ride was uneventful through Worthington and Sioux Falls, and I continued west on I-90 at normal highway speeds (80 mph). After roughly 140 additional miles, near Chamberlain, SD, the engine suddenly lost power. A rider behind me observed smoke and flames exiting the exhaust. I immediately shut the engine down and coasted to a stop, at which point the engine had seized and would not restart. Due to the timing during Sturgis Rally, Rapid City Harley-Davidson was unable to take the repair. I incurred over $700 in towing costs, along with approximately $600 in additional travel expenses (rental car, hotel, and return flight). The motorcycle was ultimately returned to Wild Prairie Harley-Davidson in Eden Prairie, MN, where I was informed the failure was due to a blown wrist pin and catastrophic piston damage. I was also told there was no maintenance-related action that would have prevented this failure, and that this type of failure is considered extremely rare. The repair estimate was approximately $11,000, which exceeds the value of the motorcycle. The Harley-Davidson Extended Service Plan only covered up to the market value of the bike (approximately $6,000), leaving a substantial remaining balance. At the time, I still owed approximately $5,000 on the loan. I was offered approximately $3,000 for the motorcycle toward the purchase of a new bike, which would have required rolling negative equity into another loan. While I was told this was essentially a "once in a lifetime" type of failure, my experience was that there was little effort made to stand behind the product or build customer loyalty after the fact. Given that this failure occurred after roughly one year of ownership and consistent maintenance.

Once I was at my wits end, I looked around and heard that most motorcycle repair shops hate working on old bikes and if they do, they charge you an arm and a leg. I stumbled across Bruno's page on Yelp and thought I would give him a ring. He helped me troubleshoot a few things over the phone and once we got to the point of exhausting my own capabilities, he graciously offered to take a look. His expert perspective made all the difference and I just seriously cannot say enough about how much I appreciated his willingness to help.

He has a great family and treats his customers like they are part of the Raven's family....he's the most honest and one of the BEST damn bike mechanic out there. Thank you so much!

Found out about Motoprimo and they were close so I decided to give them a shot. I'm glad I did. Prices on their work and parts was very reasonable, actually downright cheap compared to some other shops I looked at who offered to worked on "vintage models". I'm happy to find a place I can trust and utilize to give my bike the care I should be giving it but neglected to do for some time because of the difficulty of finding the right location. Judging from what I saw sitting in the shop to pick up my bike, it seemed they do work on a good amount of different models and time periods. They also have a really nice showroom that had a lot of cool bikes for sale if that is what you are in the market for instead. For now, I'm sticking with my trusty 1985 Honda and giving it all the love and attention it needs from Motoprimo.
