We have a bike that is used for Land Speed Racing and I have Mike help me with his dyno work. We test our bike there before we ever go to Bonneville. Great people who do great work. They treat their customers with great respect. read more

Got the job done and on time for a reasonable price. Small shop and convenient. Glad to support small shops like this.

Fixed a front brake issue I was having for far less money than I thought it was going to be.

****** I'm unsure how to improve on the service. The owner Mike has been responsive, professional, polite and helpful each time I've requested service. This week I asked for help receiving an S1000XR from a motorcycle carrier - because I was traveling out of the area. Mike was happy to help and be available for the delivery of my bike. The first time I worked with Full Throttle was two years ago, when I purchased a Triumph Tiger XC for my son's upcoming Baja trip. Mike helped with tires, chain, and sprockets - and we were in our way South in no time. The previous owner of the Triumph lives in Jumal, and raved about Full Throttle read more

I have been using these guys since they first opened and will not go anywhere else for my bikes. Highly recommend them...

Full Throttle has been my go to shop for many years and I've never been disappointed. Mike and his team are great. The only problem is that my bike is so damn reliable that I don't get to enjoy their talents as much as many others who visit more often. Definitely recommend this shop. read more

Mike pushed a small job through for me even though he was busy. Fair price and excellent communication. Thanks read more

I like to wear pretty dresses with sun hats and go to tea parties but I also love to jump on my Harley and hit the road with absolutely no destination in mind just to have the wind in my hair and feel the sun warm my face. Unfotunately the first part makes maintaining my baby monster a little hard. Happily I can report to you Gina (my baby monster) and I have found a place we can come to get work done that I trust. A few places I've called or gone to have been not so nice. I have gotten charged a ridiculous amount for stupid things and yeah I may have broken out in tears after but hey it was a learning lesson..... ask how much before you drop your beloved bike off to get work done. Something you agreed upon at an earlier date may not be the same you will pay the day of service. This was definitely not the case here at Full Throttle Powersports! Mike sold me the brake pads and quoted me a price if I wanted them installed. I was looking at them like they were aliens....I guess people put them on themselves! Can you imagine me trying to fix brakes, yeah neither can I...maybe some day...... I've done crazier things. Luckily he had time the next day. I came to the shop around 10:30 and told him I wasn't in a rush to take his time so I went shopping and had a lovely lunch. Came back in time to bug poor Mike while he finished up the bike. I paid way less than what quite a few places quoted me and was on my merry way. Thank you Mike for putting up with me being so excited over finding a great deal on a dress. You have a new satisfied customer whether you like it or not. Thank you for being honest and quickly getting me back on the road! read more

Dropped the little Yamaha TTR 90 off with a messed up carburetor I tried to clean. Mike fixed it up real quick and had it back to riding in just a couple days. He also changed the fuel filter and adjusted the float for $185. They are open till 6 pm on week nights. read more

I have bought tires from this shop and had 2 sprockets changed. I have also gotten my Dirtbike rejetted and an oil change. The owner Mike has always been very helpful and takes the time to explain all the labor involved and the best parts to use. His prices are excellent. He does quality professional work. He also backs all his work up. I deffinetely recommend this shop to any and all riders. He worked on my dirt bike and sport bike. My sportbike was a Ducati. We all know what pain in the rears those can be. Mike handled it no problem. I really love the new sprocket on my Ducati Momster! It made it like a whole new motorcycle. So happy with all the work Mike does. read more

I've been going to Mike for my powersports needs for years. Reliable, trustworthy, and extremely knowledgeable. He is always busy for a reason, well worth the wait. read more

I like this place. Mike and the guys have always done a great job on my bikes. Super fair prices and honest advice. It's been my experience with Mike's quotes that if he says it'll cost you $75, it will likely cost only $65. They're always busy but never too busy to get your bike in. read more

Well where do I start. This is an amazing shop. They take pride in their business and work. Customer service is phenomenal. Their prices are beyond fair. My brother's and I won't go anywhere else read more

Brought my Harley Road Glide in for a tire swap at 10 am, they were done by noon. I was nervous about my paint, but it came back without even a finger print on it. They also checked my brakes and replaced my front pads. Will be using then again for sure, maybe a cam upgrade... Highly recommend these guys! BTW, I'm in San Diego, not wherever Yelp thinks I am. read more

The "go to" east county big boy toy shop! If full throttle power sports seems busy, it's worth the time to have things done right! The hospitality, recommendations, and expertise given is hard to find these days. Awesome work Full Throttle! read more

I have been going to Full Throttle Powersports for years. FTP has great prices. Often they can work on the bike while you wait. The shop is stocked and if what your bike needs is not in stock, they can order it and have it delivered quickly. My latest purchase is a 2013 DRZ400SM and FTP installed tires and a battery the day I bought it. I took it to a Supermoto track the next day. FTP inspected the bike too. read more

My Yamaha Tmax was diagnosed by FBC and they are not able to repair it. I called FTP and talked to Mike he said he could take on the challenge. He was very honest about not having worked on this model before but would be willing to take a look at it. I had FBC towed it there and after a week, Mike called and said he would be able to fix it but it will take some time and would take a bit longer to order some parts. After a couple of months, he called and said that it was done. I rode it home and then again the next day. Smokes came out of the exhaust like it was on fire. I called Mike and he said to bring it in and he will look at it. Three weeks later, he called and said he got it fixed. I have been riding on it for a few months and have had no problems with it. Thank you Mike for your perseverance and effort. I love riding my Tmax and it was worth every penny. Highly recommend as Mike is very honest and diligent. He is very good at what he does. He was willing to work on something new and not everyone wanted to touch. read more

Just picked up a new petcock from my boys at Full Throttle. Mike is always chatty & this noob always learns something useful when I stop in. I also didn't leave a review last time like I said I would, they cleaned out my DRZ's gunked up carburetor. Fast & affordable, less than $200 on something that would probably have taken me hours. I live nearby, but if I lived in SD proper I would still come out here. read more

I was recommended this place by the Dynojet web site and liked the other Yelp reviews. I took my bike there to get the Power Commander V remapped and they did a fantastic job. My Mean Streak runs great! Definitely keeping them in my contacts if I need more work. read more

Overall this is a great little local shop. The guys that work there are friendly and knowledgeable. They get your bike done fast and have a very reasonable rate. I dont write reviews much, but felt it needed to be done in this case. In other words I would definitly tell a friend. ; ) read more

Full Throttle Powersports - Ftp - Motorcycle Repair Near Me - Santee, California

Fail. The only word I need to describe this place. Although I never bought a product from them, this review is based solely on a phone conversation with two different associates. I first called them to ask for tire prices for my bike. As well as ask if they were in stock and if they would match prices from other competitors. When the guy first answered the phone it was very unprofessional (which I don't really mind) and didn't seem to want to help. After I asked him he just tossed the phone to someone else and I had to repeat all my questions over. The main thing that bugged me was the second guy would not give me a straight answer on prices and said "oh the front would be around $95 and the rear about $130 probably" What kind of answer is that?!? Then I asked if they were in stock and he said to stop by and check that they were busy. WTF? Final part was me asking if they would match price because these prices are outrageous for a small ninja 250 tire. He said "I don't think so". The incompetence of this employee totally degrades this place. I will never attempt to buy anything from here. I'll stick with my usual sources. read more

Time to replace the tires on my Daytona 675 and since I was given a set when I bought my bike I started to look around for prices. Some of these places are outrageous! Rocket Motorcycles wanted $75 PER WHEEL! For a moment I thought I was at a Ducati/Aprilia dealership. A friend of mine suggested I check out Full Throttle. I checked the Google maps....a mile and a half from me? Sweet! Loaded up the wheels and tires and head over. Mike is on the tire machine finishing up a set for another customer, and I'm next in line. Everyone there is laid back and Mike is friendly. I BS'd with him while he was mounting and balancing my tires. Less than 10 minutes after walking in he hands me my wheels and says $40. It was awesome! $40 for both tires mounted and balanced. You can't beat that. They're also open late (8pm I think) which is great. They do stock some parts, and oil, etc as well. All in all, a great local place to go if you don't want to be a victim of insane price gouging at dealerships. read more

Brandon: You must have called when he was busy....it's a 1 man show and he doesn't have time to provide phone quotes AND do repair/maintenance work. Just take a ride and stop by. It will be the last shop you visit for tires or repairs. ;) Previously "Two Wheel Tire", where I only stopped one time. Mike has taken an unhelpful shop and turned it around to a place where you really do feel like he cares about your repeat business. He will work on just about anything and it will run better than it ever has before. He will work with your budget and it truly shows that he has a passion for the 2 wheel sport and its riders. Unbeatable pricing and amazing customer service. 110% recommended if you truly care about your motorcycle....and your wallet. read more

Highly recommend Full Throttle Powersports, I took my KX 250 in for a tire swap and oil change, plus a spare tire for a tire swap too and they got it done for a more than fair price and in a matter of hours Super stoked read more

shop owner Mike confirmed by phone that front pulley replacement will cost $250 a 170 for part and 80 for labor when I went to pick up I had to pay $352 because he needs to add diagnostic fee it's not fair to charge fees not discussed we are a group of bikers and will get a different repair shop to work on our motorcycles Posses Riders read more

its a good place, just very under staffed so the turn around time is pretty bad. Which is what you get with small shops, but with small shops you get higher quality work and real bike guys not like the queers at fun bike center. I am pretty sure they troubleshot my bike down to a starter incorrectly which kind of sucks because it was a spendy loss, but we all make mistakes and i am not saying i wouldnt of made the same wrong call, or if it was even wrong. I will continue to go here though and still tell my friends to go there, they seem to have some sweet things going on with stand up jet ski's which is hard to come by around here, everyone likes to ride lame sit down waverunners in san diego. could be a really good shop if they employed some more people but i get the feel they are trying to go for and it works well for them. read more

Need a new tire for your scoot? Go to Mike and his crew! They do an excellent job in mounting and balancing quickly for only $20/tire (bring him wheel and new tire only). He will also price match tires and other products online. read more

I needed a chain for my bike went to a dealer and they said they could order one get it next week. Then went to their service dept and they couldnt touch the bike for over three weeks. I called Mike and he ordered the chain got it the next day. I rode down and as soon as i got there he stopped what he was doing and took care of my bike. In and out in less than an hour. read more

they left the drive chain so far out of spec it came off and replaced bolts with multiple random fasteners it would appear they had laying around their shop all for a $450 bill. This place is an absolute joke with mechanics who have no idea what they are doing. read more

Would rate with no stars. Had them fix my CRF 450 and needed new piston, new valve and seats done in stainless. Come to find out when I sold it to my buddy he went to have a tune up and was told that none of the above was EVER done. I was outed 1200.00 by this place and I even sent my friends there. Buyer and user beware. read more

The owner Michael is a good friend of mine but I started out as a customer FIRST! I got back into riding and lived near him and I had heard he was good and honest mechanic so I started taking my bike in there. I was shocked that he didn't recommend a bunch of crap that I didn't need, he was friendly, fast and a genuinely good guy. This was about 5 years ago and I have been taking my bikes to him ever since. Over time we became friends and I have spent countless hours in that shop it is basically my man-cave now. He sponsors a Meetup riding group and we use his lot for clinics, BBQ's and anything else you can think of. I have referred a massive amount of people there the it is VERY RARE that someone was not pleased with their service. I have literally seen Michael take parts off of one of his motorcycles and install it for customers who needed it ASAP- I have also seen him take his pickup and tie-downs and go pick up stranded motorcycles and bring them into the shop, FREE. That kinda stuff is pretty rare these days. I have a dirtbike, a Triumph Speed Triple and a ZX6R Racebike all of which they have worked on and I will never go anywhere else- Gibby read more

Did a great work on banshee. Was in a time crunch and busted out the work in time for me to leave for desert. Literally the bike has never run better. For those who know banshee's they are very temperamental and I can't express enough the bike sounds and runs PERFECT! Highly recommend. Thanks Full Throttle. read more
