    Vespa GTS Super 300
    Carlos Z.

    First time ever buying a motorcycle and was dreading going into a dealership, assuming it would be as painful and excruciating as going into a car dealership. Was I wrong!! What a pleasure it was to deal with everyone at CalMoto, especially Arlie Ray who sold me my Vespa! Extremely nice, honest, knowledgeable, and I can truly say it was an amazing experience. Also interacted with Marles in the Service department, Anya in Finance, Mike (the owner) who delivered my Vespa himself, and Jeff in Service. What a great crew!! The entire process from beginning to end was painless, smooth and lighting fast. I can't recommend CaMoto enough; you will have the best experience buying a motorcycle there.

    I just bought my first bike from David Y, here at CalMoto. As a novice, I didn't feel a single bit of uncertainty or regret walking in or out of the store. David asked me very specific questions about what I wanted and was looking into, and then helped me make that happen. Not once did I feel like I was being oversold or pitched at. I did my test drive and it simply came down to what I thought and felt. Mike helped with finishing touches on the purchase and I couldn't have asked for an easier process. Thanks CalMoto for making my experience and getting onto the bike I really wanted!

    After calling around to multiple dealerships I ended up purchasing a motorcycle from Cal Moto. I drove three hours to purchase the bike but it was worth it. I was able to purchase the bike I was looking for at a competitive price! I had a great buying experience. The staff that helped me were friendly and easy to work with. Thank you Cal Moto!

    I am a very simple and straightforward customer and this was my exact experience at CalMoto Livermore with the purchase of my 2022 BMW R1250GS Adventure, simple and straightforward. David in sales expertly presented my options with my new bike and keep me informed as to the progress and timeline of the delivery of my new bike. Mike assisted with the purchase and financing making it super easy to simply ride my bike away once delivered. Jeff in the service department has assisted me with service and takes the time to explain what I should expect while in for service. The CalMoto Team presents a feeling of service and trust. I am recommending you check them out if your search for BMW/KTM dealer brought you here.

    No wonder these guys have good ratings. I didn't even check the reviews prior to the visit and already felt that the service quality is above and beyond from the phone conversation. Arlie contacted me right next day after the initial quote request online and the numbers was given straightforward without any unnecessary waste of time negotiation. I applied finance online and was approved before I visit the next day and the whole process from the paperwork to drive off the lot was AMAZING! The dealership owner gave me info on many programs that this particular dealership was offering for their customers and handed me gifts that was useful. Finance lady was the owner's spouse and she was very nice and not pushy with any additional offers. In general, everyone worked here seemed to be known each other for a long time and very knowledgeable at the same time being kind and respectable to their customer. If I ever shop for another BMW or KTM motorcycle in the future, I wouldn't even bother to check any other dealership. I purchased 2022 S1000RR M Package and it's awesome as the staff here. =)

    Been shopping for parts and accessories at Cal Moto for many years now, but have never bought a new motorcycle (in my life, actually). I've always liked the shop and the people here (I've later learned it's a family biz and the employees have mostly all been here for many, many years). They always have had a great selection of parts, accessories, helmets, Klim gear, BMW gear to choose from and browse. Of course 'browsing' all the wonderful BMW's and KTM's is fun too. All the folks here are real helpful and are all truly avid motorcyclist's. Also, once you are customer of ANY KIND (including parts), you are offered to tag along on their monthly "shop rides" which are a glorious day of riding with like minded owners and are always safely put together with riding to fun lunch locations or other interesting places around the greater Bay Area. Anyway, I decided it was time to purchase a new BMW R1250GS and began speaking with their "Adventure Agent," Arlie Ray, about locating one. When we found availability was limited, I dropped down a deposit and ordered just the one I wanted, configured like I wanted (why make compromises on a purchase this large, anyway?). Working with Arlie was really a pleasure while waiting for the factory to accept the order, then eventually moving it into production. Arlie kept me posted on progress and even provided information about the cargo once the bike left the factory. I was able to track the progress as it was loaded onto a ship, arrived on east coast, and eventually loaded to be delivered to California. Lots of fun and kept me busy while thinking about my new bike. While waiting the long time to receive my semi-custom built bike, I would stop in the shop and talk motorcycles with Arlie Ray, David (other sales) and the rest of the team, including the owners Mike and Anya. They were always friendly and truly demonstrated excitement with me for the eventual delivery of my BMW. When the bike arrived, I sat down with Anya and we did the paperwork just as discussed several months prior. No games, no add ons, no BS. Just straight up honesty and right to the deal. OVERALL GREAT EXPERIENCE DEPOSIT TO DELIVERY. Highly recommend this group. Don't hesitate to buy from them. Great people (most importantly) and you can tell they care about their customer's experiences.

    My husband as happy as he could be with his new bike. Thanks Arlie!

    HK Cycles is a locally-owned, customer-centric motorcycle repair shop. They also sell used…read moremotorcycles. Their inventory caters to discriminate buyers who are looking for a special motorcycle with a distinguished trait or characteristic. It is a shop for everyone. Service fees are reasonable and bikes range in price from $5,000 - $20,000. You will not need to take out a 2nd mortgage to become a customer of HK Cycles. HK Cycles is not a high-volume, transaction-focused shop. Jeff, the owner, has a 40+ year history riding, servicing, and customizing motorcycles. He has managed to take his passion for motorcycles and couple it with his entrepreneurial spirit. Although Motorcycle Dealers and Service Centers come and go, this small shop by the Livermore Airport has been in business for decades. Jeff has earned my respect for a number of reasons. His knowledge of motorcycles and parts appears limitless. Jeff truly enjoys engaging with his customers and exploring options to help people get what they want from riding a motorcycle. Jeff does not pressure or push. But perhaps his greatest strength is assembling a team of mechanics and tuners with diverse backgrounds and interests who all share his desire to make motorcycling a little better in the East Bay. Sam appears to me to be a Harley Davidson enthusiast. He understands that culture and those bikes. Yet each time I bring in my Honda CB1100 for service, he is polite, completely engaged, and celebrates the moment even though his time spent on metric bikes may be limited. Keegan is quiet and intense. He is a metric motorcyclist with a performance bent. However, he takes the same pride working on a 650 LB bagger that he does when he services a high performance motorcycle. I believe he enjoys test driving my CB1100. He has assured me that he is better behaved on my motorcycle than his own. Fredy is quiet and always working. Although my interaction with him has been limited, it is clear to everyone that he likes to get things done and move on to the next work order. I have done business with HK Cycles for 10 years. I encourage you to visit the shop and give them a chance. In 10 years, you too may be writing a glowing review of this great shop.
