The Motorcycle Shop is an unassuming garage at the north end of Austin Highway. You would expect a…read morebusiness called The Motorcycle Shop to cater to motorcycle riders, but it's more of a Vespa and scooter shop from the looks of the outside. Indeed, from other reviews, it appears their focus is on scooters. However, one desperate weekend, I was changing brake pads on my bike only to release I had the wrong part for my rear brake. This was, as is my modus operandi, a realization I had only after disassembling the caliper. Now, I've known of the The Motorcycle Shop from my daily commute but never been inside it. In a moment of desperation, I called them up and asked if they had the correct brakepad in stock. They, in fact, did. I asked them to hold the part for me and raced over there. Looks can be deceiving. The shop is larger inside than it looks from the outside and they sell various new and used motorcycles as well as scooters. I don't buy new so I can't speak on their pricing for bikes. There was a substantial wait at the parts counter. Lots of jib jabbing of the salesman variety. In all honestly, if I hadn't needed the part, I would have walked out and found one elsewhere. Eventually, a salesman noticed I was milling about and interrupted the man at the parts counter so I could pick up what I came for. They sell a fair amount of bolt on accessories, helmets, jackets, and the like. Nothing to write home about. They have mechanics on site, but I did not deal with them. If you're into scooters, this is probably your spot. If you are looking for a shop or to buy a motorcycle, well maybe. There are other motorcycle garages nearby with better reputations. The store was decent and the staff was friendly based on my interactions.

I Took my trike in for its 5000 mile service. I took it on Saturday when all service is first come…read morefirst serve, and they seem to hold true to that. I got there just a little before 8:00 and by 8:30 they had my trike in the shop. The service advisor was great, he kept me informed of any extra service my trike needed. Overall I'm happy with the service. At both my 1000 mile service and now my 5000 mile service, my trike runs and sounds better than before I bought it in. The service isn't cheap and that's okay, I don't have a problem paying for good service. The reason I'm giving 4 stars is because their wash job after the service is absolutely terrible. I keep my trike spotless, I clean it up after every ride. All the people I've seen that ride motorcycles do the same thing. When I got my trike today it was definitely dirtier than it was this morning when I brought it to them. It's like whoever washes the bikes uses a dirty rag and is quite possibly legally blind. In the future I'm just going to tell them to not wash my trike after service. I'll just clean it up when I get home, I do that anyway.

Back in 2018, I took it to Caliente to replace the ECM, no problem at all. Service was provided and I was back on the road. Last week I called to have it towed due to engine running erratically. Tow was set up and Vincent was great. Shortly after it was towed away, I got a call from George. He was very direct and and indicated the manage said "we are not touching that bike, it's custom." He went on to say we can't return it until Friday and someone will give you a call to confirm the time. To which I agreed and asked is it possible to diagnose it? His response was just as rude, we aren't touching it. Friday came and he once again came across a little sideways, but this time over voicemail. The driver is loaded and on the way. Nine voicemails left by the time I noticed due to being at work and in meetings. The last message stated "we need to connect and if we don't deliver today it will be after the weekend and we will have to start charging storage fee of $20. Poor service, unprofessional and a poor reflection of leadership to his crew. Next time ask the customer if the bike is custom and you'll avoid it all. Won't be a next time for me. Two stars only because Vincent was great. George...could use some training.

Some experiences stay with you long after they're over -- not because of what you bought, but…read morebecause of how you were treated. That's what happened at Dream Machines of San Antonio. With Larry Lee's guidance, I discovered the Indian that truly felt like it chose me. His patience, warmth, and knowledge transformed what could have been a routine sale into something memorable. Even after the sale, he continued to check in, ensuring I understood my bike and felt confident riding. Kyle, one of the mechanics, embodies care and purpose. He explained safety, mechanics, and all the little details every new rider should know. The gremlin on my bike started as Larry's thoughtful idea, and Kyle brought a few options for me to choose from. I picked the perfect one, and Kyle placed it on my bike in such a meaningful spot that it touched my heart. Dream Machines of San Antonio isn't just about motorcycles -- it's about connection, respect, and integrity. They don't just help you find a bike; they help you find a sense of belonging. If you've ever thought about riding or finding a bike that speaks to you, come see them. You might discover more than a bike; you might discover a community and an experience that stays with you long after you ride away.

Yes he was rough around the edges but you know what, he was a biker and lived it. Not some corporate shirt who would just try to upsale you. If you shut up and used your ears when he spoke and answered intelligently or honestly when you didn't know something he would explain it to you while having you help him so you learn how to do what you went to him for. If you showed no interest than that's your damn fault because there are no better teachers to motorcycle enthusiasts than the Greybeards. I say that with the upmost respect possible. You guys missed out who didn't know about this store or who had such fragile egos that a rough old man crushed your ego. He's rough because he didn't put up with BS and was on guard because well society doesn't want them around because bikers are the final bastion of freedom and liberty that are around nowadays and they wear it on their sleeve proudly. They deserve that little respect. I know that he had been sick as that's what he said to me while teaching me to true my laced wheel and remove and replace my tires. I appreciated that immensely. I'm not sure if he's still with us but I would like to tell him thank you even if belated and hopefully his family will see this and know that he was appreciated and missed by one of his newer customers. Again God bless and thank you Porkchop.
