The temptation with a bike that will not start is to throw a battery and a set of plugs at it. We would rather spend twenty minutes finding out which of the four things it actually is - charging system, ignition, fuel delivery, or one of the safety interlocks that stops the bike dead when a side stand switch or clutch switch fails.
Interlock faults in particular are a favourite. The bike is mechanically perfect and it will not turn over, because a $20 switch has corroded. That is a very cheap fix once somebody looks at it properly.
A worn chain will chew a new sprocket in a season, so they get done as a set. Same principle as brakes: replacing half of a matched pair is a false economy that comes back inside a year.
Fairings, hand controls, levers, mirrors and pegs after a drop are straightforward work that shops often charge a queue-fee for. We take them off in order, lay them out in the order they came off, and put them back with the right fasteners in the right holes. It sounds obvious. Look at any bike that has been apart once and you will see it is not.
Stands, tools, fluids and the parts for the booked job. What we cannot do at your curb is anything needing a lift and a full teardown - engine work, frame work, full rebuilds. Those go to the garage, same as with cars.
Tire changes we do off the wheel: you take the wheel off or we do, the tire gets fitted and balanced, and it goes back on.
Photographs from our own motorcycle work across the Temecula Valley. Plates and VINs are redacted; nothing here is stock.
Yes. Quads, side-by-sides and dual sports get the same treatment. A lot of our powersports work is out toward the back of Winchester and De Luz where people ride on their own land.
On most bikes, yes - it is a patient job rather than a heavy one. Shim-under-bucket engines take longer than screw-and-locknut, and we quote accordingly.
Very common. Usually stale fuel and a varnished carburetor or clogged injectors, plus a battery that sulphated while it sat. We diagnose which before we clean anything.
We fit tires you have supplied, or we will order what you want. We do not hold stock, so give us a couple of days' notice.
A proper diagnosis in the Temecula Valley runs $95 to $150, takes about an hour at your curb, and that fee comes straight off the repair if you have us do the work.
Read More →A front or rear axle of pads and rotors takes us about an hour in your driveway, and it is one of the few repairs where a mobile mechanic is genuinely faster than a shop - no drop-off, no lobby, no shuttle.
Read More →We come to your driveway or office parking lot, change the oil and filter by hand in about thirty minutes, take the old oil away, and look over the rest of the car while we are under there.
