I don’t leave many reviews but when I do it’s because someone went above and beyond. Quick response, reliable, and very informative. Thank you for helping me, I’d be walking home without you.

Incredibly grateful to have found a cheap, reliable, and quick shop in philly. As someone who hates changing motorcycle tires, it’s exciting to find a place charging half that of other shops to do so

I wish I knew about these guys from the start!Initially I had some performance parts installed for my Honda Ruckus at a different shop who had no idea or dedication to tune it resulting in poor under performance.I ended up finding Arnie and Lynn’s shop by word of mouth. My Ruckus was initially only hitting around 41mph and had poor acceleration.Arnie was confident he could resolve this and bring us up to the 50mph we aimed for, and he did!I greatly appreciate their honesty, hard work and dedication to seeing this project through!Arnie and Lynn delivered everything they promised, they’re great people too and I highly recommend them!

This place is the ultimate best to get your motorcycle worked on. Attentive, caring, knowledgeable and after your first visit youre on a first name basis. I was in and out fairly quickly, and they took the time to explain everything that was done, and what I could do to my 13 FZ8 to get it to its best possible form. My go to shop now for sure. Arnie is the best!

Arnie and Lynn were both super helpful and saved my life with the major headache i was having with my motorcycle. Definently a place you can take your bike and TRUST them with it. 5 stars. Best in town.

Man, what can I say? I had an issue with my bike and limped it over to South Philly cycles from the highway right around closing time. Arnie went out of his way to help me, stayed 3 hours past closing time and got my bike back on the road. Great service, super nice, down to earth guy, fair prices. I look forward to coming back here when I need maintenance done on my bikes!

I was having throttle cable issues and they were great. No waiting to order a part, and they even fixed some cosmetic issues I didnt even ask them to fix.Then the next day when I thought I was having the same issue, I brought it back and this time it was a spark plug cap issue that they fixed free of charge, and even came in on the day they were closed so I could pick my scooter up.A much better alternative to Philadelphia Scooters. This place is a garage and they are professionals, unlike Philadelphia Scooter who only seems to want to sell you something.

Amazing service. Helped me out with a custom license plate bracket on the undertail of my SV650S. The wiring was also done for new turn signals. Great quality work, quick service, and very fair pricing. I would be happy to go again and would recommend this shop to anyone regarding their motorcycle.

My experience with this shop was varied. When I first dropped my bike off, I mentioned exactly what I thought was wrong with the bike:1) Front brake was starting to stick2) Electrical issues with the charging system (battery wont hold charge for long)3) Needed back brakes replace (I brought new pads with me to be installed).I left the bike with them for 2 weeks without hearing back anything. After two weeks, I started calling....and calling...and calling.... I didnt get a call for 3 weeks. This is after leaving countless messages and requesting information. At the end of the 3rd week mark, they mentioned the bike had been looked at and quoted me 580+ for the work that needed to be done which included a new charging system (stator, regulator/rectifier, battery as they said I had low throughput) as well as replacing the back brakes.This seemed outrageous as the bike is an 07 Suzuki and shouldnt need this type of work yet. I asked for them to release the bike to me and I would work on it myself. It cost me $65.00 for the release of this bike into my possession for nearly no information as to what exactly in the charging system was faulty and the back brakes were still not installed.Later that week, I did some research and bought the Haynes bike manual and was able to determine the root cause of my problems was a weak battery alone after numerous deep cycling during the winter riding and unuse. I tested every other component of the charging system and determined THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH THEM. They were all well within their respective operating range. This shop wanted to charge me to replace the entire system which was working fine. I bought a new battery and do not expect to see any issues in the foreseeable future.To their credit, when I was able to get a hold of them, the staff there were kind to me and tried to be helpful when I went to pick the bike up and talked me through what they thought was wrong with my motorcycle however being personable and likable unfortunately does not make up for poor service, unresponsiveness, and a wrong diagnosis. I wouldnt not recommend this shop for any type of diagnostic work. Perhaps if you know exactly what needs to be performed, they may be able to perform specific tasks but I was not satisfied with the service and cannot recommend this shop for any motorcycle work.

After making an appointment and bringing my bike in for a routine tune-up (which took almost two weeks to do) picked it up and it had a really bad ticking sound when i accelerate, brought it back in to have it checked on again and the dude tells me it has nothing to do with what he did to the bike (of course), but it just magically started ticking after he did the tune-up??? so now i have to pay to have somebody else fix it so do yourself a favor and take your bike to someone who knows what theyre doing and save yourself some money and hassle

Finally! An alternative to the scooter shop on Passyunk and so much better customer service! While the scooter shop on Passyunk helped me with my Buddy for many years, once I got my Chinese scooter as a replacement to my stolen Buddy, they told me they dont work on Chinese scooters. What great advice; thats how I found South Philly Cycles. They were able to inspect my 150cc scooter and have taken GREAT care of my needs. They actually open before noon (which was frustrating about the Passyunk Ave shop) and they help me with whatever issue I have: flat tire, state inspection, lights out, etc. They are reasonable and somehow, the owner, Lynn, always remembers my name. GREAT customer service at a time when most business are lacking. Prices are also more reasonable than Passyunk Ave shop so its great to save money at the same time. I highly recommend this shop for scooter owners of ALL makes and models.
