So I made the trek to Washington, Ia. He did it right away & I was on my way home in just a couple minutes & most of that was spent bullsh**ting. There was NO charge. Very good guy

While it was easy he put new rear brake pads on too. Saved the day, saved my week. Thank you! Great service.

We were traveling east on I-80 when we started getting a warning that the battery wasn't charging…read more Got off the freeway in search of repair. We literally coasted into a gas station in Lynnville and they recommended Lynnville Repair. They came and got us and got a new alternator installed in less than 3 hours. Even gave us a loaner so we could wait it out somewhere. (Thanks Sully Community Library.). Thanks Lynnville Repair for the great service.

I've been dealing with Derek for a couple of years now. Initially buying parts online. Recently…read moreI've undertaken a custom Yamaha project and needed some advice on parts and major engine modifications. Derek has been patient and gone to great lengths to help with tuning advice as well as finding some custom parts. I'll be posting pictures of the finished project soon, and will say I couldn't have done it without Derek's knowledge and expertise. I highly recommend him as source of advice, knowledge encouragement and parts supply!

Disclaimer: I am a complete newb to motorcycles and have not actually used any other motorcycle…read morerepair people other than Derek my whole life. That said, despite the above disclaimer, I am nonetheless a fairly difficult customer to impress. My husband and I are control freaks and perfectionists, though goodness knows we WANT to get excited about finding good services. When we brought ourselves and our dual-sports (WR250X/R) to Derek, based on YELP reviews, I quickly got the impression that 1) he was competent and a perfectionist and 2) he'd not worked on our particular bike before. But the latter didn't really phase him. He took my emails with links to online articles in stride and showed us complete respect despite our lack of experience, and at every stage of the way has made us happy with his attitude and his results. He may sometimes question our judgement when we make a request, but he does it for the right reasons, and in the end he'll still humor us if we get stubborn. So far all our adjustments and repairs have made us very happy, and I've no complaint about the cost of his service (though given the above disclaimer, I may just be too clueless to know if he's ripping us off, heh...wait, I didn't just say that). We'll be going back to him for all our future motorcycle repair/mod needs. Knowing that we're done with the search for a good mechanic is a weight off my shoulders. (Regarding the 1* review...am I Derek's friend? Err, probably not. Not that I think he'd be a bad friend, but, um, I'm just a customer.)

On top of that, they did a great job--clean, neat, and done right. You can also tell Travis is genuinely passionate about ATVs and motorcycles, not just running a business. As he puts it, "I've been doing this all my life, and I'm not planning on stopping now." You really can't go wrong with someone who loves what they do. Travis and his crew were friendly, professional, and great to work with throughout the whole process. Last but not least--come hungry if you're there around lunch or dinner. Apparently they're not just great mechanics, they can cook too. The fried catfish was immaculate. Honestly, they should open a restaurant in the back--I even heard deer might be on the menu next lol. Give them a shot--whether you need repairs or just want some amazing food lol. You won't regret it.
