Went in for a bike inspection. Was told my front tire failed......and highly recommended a rear tire.....due to extreme dry rotting and cracking!!! I asked Steve to repeat it so there was no confusion. He repeated that i failed inspection. First Problem: MY Repair Shop just got rid of Bike Inspections 2 yrs ago. Second Problem: I am a PA Inspection Auto Mechanic since 1990....... Third Problem: BOTH TIRES were replaced ONE YEAR ago. No Dry Rotting. No Cracking at all. And Plenty of Tread! read more

So glad I found this place! I never knew they were around for as long as they were. The guys are super knowledgeable and friendly. I'm a fairly new rider and I initially felt intimidated walking into a shop where there were many Harleys but I felt absolutely no judgement being a 5'2" female with my Ninja 400. They did a great job with my exhaust. They also hooked me up when I lost one of my battery terminal nuts. Will be going in next week for my fender eliminator. Will give them all of my business and continue to refer. They are stand up. Check 'em out. You'll be happy you did. read more

Cycle Stop Incorporated - Inside the shop - Motorcycle Repair Near Me - Norristown, Pennsylvania

See all

I bought a 2005 Yamaha Road Star there last month. The price was excellent for the mileage and the bike was very clean. I was nervous buying a bike without being able to test ride it, but the personable owner inspired my trust. The bike ran great and i am thrilled with it. After 2 weeks the bike completely stopped running. I tested the fuses but they were fine. Out of ideas, I called the shop and the owner took the time to give me some things to check. He was right on, it was just battery terminals that vibrated loose. A twist of the screwdriver and i am sane again- my bike roaring strong down the road. The shop is almost an hour from my home, but I will go there for service at long as the bike can get me there. read more

ABSOLUTELY AWFUL customer service and experience at this shop. I have given this shop multiple opportunities and have yet to have a single positive experience there. The owner in particular has demonstrated a severe lack of knowledge regarding even the most basic motorcycle information on numerous instances. One such example includes recommending me the WRONG oil grade after I have changed my own motorcycle's oil personally according to the owner's manual countless times. Beyond just their lack of information, they are extremely rude (again, the owner in particular). I would not recommend this shop even if you are in a pinch. Outdated, overpriced, and off brand products on the shelf, a dirty and unwelcoming store, and a pretentious and rude staff. read more

Steve and the guys at Cycle Stop have been my number one go-to for cycle parts and services for 20 years. Friendly, fair, and fast service. They just helped me get an old bike's gas tank cleaned and sealed, and new tires. Their tee-shirts are pretty awesome too! I HIGHLY recommend Cycle Stop to anybody who needs anything motorcycle related! read more

Cycle Stop is a cool place if you like motorcycles. Even before I went in, I knew Cycle Stop employed a staff that knew motorcycles because of the eclectic mix of bikes parked outside. Most of the bikes were older and well cared-for, and and included everything from Harley-Davidsons to Japanese sport bikes. Cycle Stop sells parts, occasionally bikes, and accessories. They also work on bikes and do inspections. Their rate is $65 an hour, but I found them to be very generous and honest. When I first bought a used Ninja, I took it to Cycle Stop to be inspected and have the carbs cleaned and synced, and for good measure I asked them to look at the valves. Since the valves were okay, I was not billed the full amount, even though they took the time to do the work. What I really like about Cycle Stop is that they are willing to talk to you. They will give you advice on what's wrong with your bike, or tell you what to look out for if you are making a purchase. Since they do not focus on selling motorcycles, they do not have the same sales atmosphere that dealers have when you walk in their door. I go to Cycle Stop because they are nice people and are located conveniently close to me. I did not give them 5 stars because they are not open late and because I do not know what their full capabilities are for servicing bikes. I know that if your bike has carburetors Cycle Stop has the experience to do good work on your bike. I would recommend this place to anyone who rides a motorcycle. read more

Owner is not a fan of vintage bikes and was quite dismissive when I brought mine in to get work done, despite calling first to get the okay (albeit 3 weeks prior). Seems like he has decent knowledge of the old Honda's as he's had this shop since the 60's, but not in touch with the current trend of vintage part reproduction, and is unwilling to work on them. Didn't even want to hear what I needed done, just like 'no please leave'. Other than that seemed like a clean shop. Lots of *new* bikes there to be worked on. Harley's mostly. read more

This is the first review I've written and I'm pretty disappointed that it has to be a negative one. Especially since I like patronize mom and pop shops. I brought my bike to cycle stop after telling them that I had a dead cylinder on my yzf-r1. This is almost always due to one of the following: bad gas, bad spark plugs, dirty air filter, or a dead ignition coil. Instead of checking each of these and properly checking the firing by test driving it, cycle stop just replaced the air filter and spark plugs and charged me three hours of labor. The end cost was ~$450. Once I picked up the bike, I could tell within five miles that a cylinder was still misfiring due to a throttle blip and intermittent power below 5,000 rpms. Within 5 days, the cylinder was completely dead again. This showed that they didn't bother to properly test ride the bike and that the bike had immediately fouled the plug due to a bad ignition coil. When I called the mechanic at cycle stop, his only reply was that I hadn't paid him to diagnose the problem (What did I pay for then?). It's one thing to be thorough and try to solve a complicated issue but fail. It's another to not know what you're doing and to not check the usual suspects. This weekend I dug into the engine and tested the ignition coils, a well know culprit. It took me less than 3 hours in my backyard with a basic tool kit, much less time than cycle stop charged me for professional labor. The number one cylinder ignition coil had a resistance that was 20% out of spec. Lo and behold, replacing it made the bike run like a charm. Considering that cycle stop had to remove the bad coil to replace the spark plug and they didn't even bother to check it, I can't understand how they claim to know what they are doing. The shop owner seems nice and I hate to give a bad review to a small business owner, but I can't help but warn others against have diagnostic work done here. read more
