This place rocks. Love the staff -- always good and transparent communication about the repairs -- and easy access now from the highway. Been using them for years now but just now getting around to giving them a proper review. Cheers + thank you Flying Tiger! read more

Had fuel delivery issues with vintage enduro. They reviewed the issue and agreed to check out the bike. Now starts and runs perfectly! Highly recommend for your vintage bike analysis and repair! read more

Flying Tiger Motorcycles - Motorcycle Repair Near Me - St. Louis, Missouri

We have a 1972 Honda 500 four that my wife's Dad bought new. It had not run in more than 40 years. Eric and his team restored it to new condition. (2800 original miles on the odometer) It looks amazingly great and runs/purrs like a kitten. They give honest estimates and great work. I highly recommend Flying Tigers Motorcycles for your motorcycle repairs or maintenance needs. read more

Flying Tiger Motorcycles - Motorcycle Repair Near Me - St. Louis, Missouri

These guys just refused to repair my scooter, after it was stolen & damaged, even though they've been maintaining it for years. The repairman said it was a "piece of ****", not good enough for him to bother with. Definitely Prima Donna behavior. read more

Eric and his team worked with us to service (we bought a some of the needed replacement parts) my 2006 BMW F650 GS. We purchased this motorcycle used & have had a few things done here & there. After this recent service, it feels like a brand new motorcycle. The turn around time seemed appropriate & the communication was great. Not every shop wants to work on a BMW, and we recommend Flying Tiger! read more

First time at the shop and it was a great experience. I had a few lingering issues that were more geared toward a seasoned mechanic who could troubleshoot a few odd behavior issues on the bike. Staff were able to listen to my concerns and addressed them in a timely manner. Certainly worth your time if you need any diagnostic work done. Highly recommend. read more

The worst place EVER! DO NOT LEAVE YOUR MOTORCYCLE HERE EVER EVER!!! They kept my bike for two weeks and didn't do any work! Then I wanted to pick up my motorcycle because they never did anything and they charged me for the parts they ordered, even without doing the job. DO NOT GO TO THIS PLACE! THE OWNER IS SUPER RUDE AND RACIST. read more

Flying Tiger Motorcycles - Motorcycle Repair Near Me - St. Louis, Missouri

Hands down the best shop in all of STL. They're responsive, prices are beyond reasonable and they shoot you straight. Had to have my bike serviced here and I can concur with all the stellar reviews. Kind and honest folks, exactly what you want in life but even more so in a Mechanic shop. This is my go to shop and it should be yours, full stop. read more

Awesome service. Super fast. Did extra work no big extra costs. I'll be back. Quick and got calls from company about depth of services i wanted. read more

I had to call the police because this person was super RUDE!! The worst place EVER! DO NOT LEAVE YOUR MOTORCYCLE HERE EVER EVER!!! They kept my bike for two weeks and didn't do any work! Then I wanted to pick up my motorcycle because they never did anything and they charged me for the parts they ordered, even without doing the job. DO NOT GO TO THIS PLACE! THE OWNER IS SUPER RUDE AND RACIST. read more

My friends motorcycle needed an oil change but Flying Tiger said it needed work. They gave him an estimate but charged $90 higher! That's ridiculous and when he tried to talk to them they were hostile and rude. Do NOT do business with these low life's read more

Flying Tigers I do not recommend for the reason of misleading and very poor communication skills. Bike was in their shop for 2 week with Zero work started. Total disappointment and waste of two around trips at 100 miles each. read more

I USED to frequent the shop when they sold Guzzi and RE brands. In fact I bought a 500 Classic from them. My reason for the low rating is because I had an older Yamaha XT 350 that I took to them for some upgrades and to add an exhaust. When they were done with it, the bike wouldn't run properly. I took it back to them and after a period of time they told me it was complete. Still didn't run right. That's when they told me they were done with it. And this after paying over $800! I will tell everyone I know what a screw job I received here. read more

This is just a great shop! I LOVE MOTORCYCLES. We currently have 9 in the garage and I'm still drooling when I go to Flying Tigers! It's like an interactive art studio! You can sit on the art! Also, I am crazy about aromas and they have specialty candles in these great tins with original art. The smell of my favorite candle keeps me in my office and on task while feeling like I'm at a coffee house! The staff are so friendly that we are tempted to stop in just to visit. My next bike will come from Flying Tigers. read more

See all

Top rated in our community and couldn't be happier that owner lives and works right here, providing best quality work possible Thank you for bringing wonderful customers to our community and contributing tax dollars so we all live in a better place. Your superior reputation does a world of good for all us. Thank you! read more

I had run over some glass/rocks and it ruined my tires. The Flying Tiger crew, from start to finish, were pleasant to work with and helped re-align my side mirrors as an extra. Great shop and love the area they're in! Thanks y'all for looking out! read more

I went in to look at motorcycle helmets and left with a lot of good, informative knowledge from the sales associate. The guy was very nice and helpful! read more

Eric and Theresa, the joint proprietors of this small shop, are probably the nicest and most honest mechanics you'll ever meet. I've been to about half a dozen shops in my time riding (mostly in California) and have never received such a personalized touch. I learned about the shop through one of the motorcycles they had on consignment and had posted on Craigslist. When I called, Eric took the time to have a thorough conversation and share his knowledge with me without the patronizing tone the many larger shops traditionally convey. He doesn't round up on the hourly price for labor (which is very competitive for the St. Louis area) and gives competent estimates. An example is that he estimated four hours for my job and a less-than-one-week turnaround where St. Louis Powersports and Motorrad both estimated over six hours and gave a two week turnaround. He also gives clean, readable, and clear invoices. I've been to shops where the invoice is the fourth of fifth carbon copy, extremely faint, and barely legible. If you're in need of motorcycle repair or maintenance, check out Eric and Theresa, and I hope that your experience is as pleasant as mine. read more

I've been coming to Flying Tiger Motorcycles since they first opened and every time it's been phenomenal!! Customer Service - 5 stars. Flying Tiger Mechanics - 5 stars. Pricing - 5 stars. If other company's took this business model and applied it to their own business, they would become nothing but successful. read more

My car got totaled a couple months ago and went a long time with NO ride. It was so frustrating dealing with the situation with no solution until my friend suggested a scooter. I didn't know what I was really buying or what to look for. When I came in, Adam and Lillian were so fun, laid back and helpful and gave me amazing guidance without being pushy. They were 110% real about all risks and things that come with owning a genuine scooter. I left with the coolest scooter that's going to wind up saving me a lot of money in the long run. So thankful for this business, the great help, and all the great quality merchandise. read more

These guys are amazing! I was passing thru St. Louis on my cross country trip and decided to take my W650 in for an oil change. I went to pickup my bike the next morning and they found that my clutch cable was almost had almost snapped! They were so attentive to have found this. But now what? My W is a pretty rare bike and miraculously, the owner has this exact bike on their showroom. It's their personal bike and not for sale. But since they couldn't order a cable for me within any reasonable time, they took the cable of his bike and installed it on mine! Tim and Eric were amazing with their concern, workmanship, and attention. If I live in STL, I would be a customer for life. read more

On our return trip from Sturgis 2015 that included a stop at the Harley Museum in Milwaukee ... the clutch went out on my 97 Police Road King in St. Luis. Numerous phone calls to local Harley dealerships proved disappointing because they refuse to work on older bikes. I found Flying Tigers on Yelp ... talked with Brett on the phone, he offered encouraging possible solutions. Once Tim had a chance to assess the problems ... he quickly ordered parts, opened the housing, found the extract problem and even worked through his lunch break to get us back on the road in just a couple of hours. I highly recommend this shop for any repair ... very honest people here! Thanks to all at the shop that helped get us up and running. Tom from California & Wes from Hawaii read more

Eric, Theresa, and staff repaired an atv for my daughter when they first opened and years later got my CB750 back on the road for me/wife.

This shop has proven itself to me now on multiple occasions when other shops in the area have failed miserably. Great service and very nice staff here. I consider myself the most loyal to businesses who are committed to getting the job done right and making the customer pleased and satisfied and this is one of them. I will be coming back here for service when necessary. FYI my bike is a 78 KAWA KZ650. Check this place out. read more

I've had a few things done here on my bike. These guys are always straight up. Never get the feel they BS with you. Service can get a little backed up. I guess business is pretty good for them, and I see why. Never bought anything here, so I can't speak for sales. But the service is great and the prices are not gouging. They'll take almost any bike, I'd recommend them to anyone. read more

Took my scooter in for a routine service. They got me in fast and the scooter rode better than new when I got it back. Have talked with the owner quite a bit as well. He seems to really know his stuff and always seems happy to talk with a customer. read more

Flying Tiger has a small showroom and a limited range of bikes available but they're extremely friendly and helpful. A year before I purchased my motorcycle here I bought a scooter from a big Honda dealership in Chicago who were very pushy and didn't seem to care. Thankfully my experience here was totally different. These guys are awesome. Just walk in and they'll help you out. read more

I would be very careful with these people. Went to get some work done and never met deadlines. Everything was great till they were held accountable and then everything changed. The people who seemed so nice were gone. A pleasant place to buy a bike perhaps but not somebody to work with long term. Shady and underhanded. read more

This place will take your money, tell you to pick up your bike its ready,..You get there and it doesn't run correctly, they tell you to come back, when you do it still not running correctly they will say its the bikes fault and yours in some way??? Then they will tell you they are done trying to fix it... No apologizes, no refund, and no help and leave you stranded in front of their shop with no way to get your bike home! And thats after being a good customer that spent alot of money on the repairs! And the worst part is they did it to a 64 yr. old Grandfather who has been a motorcycle enthusiast all his life! UNACCEPTABLE! read more

On two seperate occasions they've damaged my bike with shoddy work and not fixed it. If they dont like your review on google they will repeatedly call you and attempt to bully you into changing it. Their latest trick has been to accept a tow for my bike and then tell me they wont work on it and it's sitting with the keys in the lot "so you better come get it" (they know its my only transportation). Eric specifically told me on the phone this was in retaliation for a bad google review. Tread carefully around these guys because they will fuck up your bike and fuck you over if you do anything to offend them read more

Exceptional service. This is a place you can trust. They took care of an issue with my bike quickly and did a great job. I wouldn't take my bike anywhere else. read more

I brought in a flat tire on the rim that needed to be changed out and when I got it back, one of the bolts that hold the sprocket on was not fully secured. It was still backed out so far it would have hit my frame. Lucky I noticed it as I put it back on my bike otherwise it would have cause major problems as it would have rubbed against and damaged the frame or even worse, it could have caused me physical harm. The initial guy I talked to came across as a nice guy until he said, ok, so the drive is on the left then? I didn't know what to say, was he kidding or just an idiot? I should have taken my business elsewhere right then. The mechanic who did the job was negligent and could have ended up getting me hurt due to his laziness or stupidity. Luckily I checked his/her work before I put the tire back on the bike. if this was a professional company, I shouldn't have to check their work. It was probably the simplest job possible and they couldn't get it right. I wouldn't trust them to fix a kids tricycle at this point. Too bad because it is hard to find a motorcycle repair shop that wont screw you... I guess I'm still searching. Don't wast your time or money on bike snobs who challenge your knowledge of bikes rather than educate. I have 2300 FB friends and they will all hear about this. Thanks for Nothing Flying Tiger! read more

Took my bike in for a second opinion, and Eric actually discovered the true issue with my bike. Very knowledgeable and courteous, and bike enthusiast, like myself. He really gave me a hook up on the whole deal, because my bike was being a royal pain to deal with. Their hourly rates beat out the competition, and they do not round up on labor, which i thought was very cool. Great experience. And they're moving to a new property I hear Aug 1, 2011, right next door, with more space. read more

This place should stick to peddling Royal Enfields and scooters and ditch their repair dept. I took my bike in two years ago to have work done. Motor ran but was rough, most of all I needed it cleaned up. I gave them a budget on what I wanted to spend (was more than what I imagine they could possibly spend for what I wanted done), what I was looking for, And left it. I got a call from one of their "mechanics" a month later saying he could do a full rebuild for around that amount, so I agreed. Two years later, I'm fed up and want my bike back in at least close to completed condition... I tell them cut a bill for work done and parts purchased and I will finish it up. My bill was close to $800 for the following: Rattle canned motor De tabbed but un coated frame (4 hours labor) will rust in no time A beautiful set of rear shocks A chewed up fiberglass seat that I purchased, they hacked up My Exhaust pipes were cut in half but no explanation why $80 for mufflers that I PURCHASED that were on the bike... How can I be billed for something that was already put on by myself? It is in worse shape than when I brought it to them. They claim it's because they couldn't finish the job, but for the most part I got NO explanation. They will be reported to BBB All I can say is that I'm glad it's out of their hands, the place is only good for buying a hip t shirt and maybe a scooter but NOTHING else not even an oil change in my opinion. read more

Was very pleased with the results I got from them. I put it in on August 22 and got the bike back on September 28. I had some engine issues on an imported machine. They did a great job of keeping me informed and getting the machine back to me in much better shape than it had ever been. I have recommended them to all of my friends and they will continue to have my business. read more

this is the true definition of what a small family business should be . my brother and I came in on a thursday with an emergency repair for a friday trip. eric was able to get us out the door next day and saved our dirt bike trip . thanks guys ! read more

The girl behind the counter was super helpful. I wasn't looking to purchase at the time because I had one. But my scooter got stolen so I think I know where I will get my next scooter and that will be at Flying Tiger Motorcycles! Thanks for being so great the first time I went in! :) read more

Picked up a new (to me) bike on Friday and rode all weekend. By Monday, I was pretty sure the bike had a clogged jet. Found this shop (which I've passed dozens of times and never noticed) while out on a ride today and stopped in - no appointment, no notice. Theresia told me they could do a 'once over' on the bike and give me an opinion. I didn't expect much more than a listen and walk around outside. However, Tim moved several bikes just to get mine in the shop and on the lift, then spent about 20 minutes going over the bike and checking it out! Tim confirmed my suspicions about the carb jets AND was able to tell me that it was an idler jet (not the main) AND that it was the front carb not the rear. Moreover, Tim was able to explain exactly how he knew this and what needed to be done. Also suggested one-step larger idler jets for improved flow and cooler running. Tim then aired up my tires, checked the brakes and sent me on my way. Great shop, great people, great business. I usually do my own work b/c I enjoy it and like to save money, but I'm planning to leave the bike with Flying Tiger next week for a carb clean and jet replacement. Can't say enough good things. -William read more

I'm very pleased with my purchase from here. Theresa hooked me up with a great deal on a scooter, and Eric gave me tips for how to operate the beast. The nicest people you'll meet, and they sell quality products. read more
