I'm a littler perplexed with all the good reviews here. My guess is they bought items vs. having anything repaired. I brought a scooter in for maintenance and to find out what was wrong with it. They (apparently) did an oil change and checked things over and since there seemed to be something wrong with the carb they recommended a cleaning. Ok, fine. Over a week later I called to see if my scooter was done yet and they said "Oh, we're just finishing up on it, it'll be ready tomorrow." And then it wasn't ready "tomorrow". Yet no one ever called me to tell me it wouldn't be ready. Hmm. Finally got it back, they claimed everything was fixed and ready to go. I rode the scooter home and it was having the same acceleration/fuel problems it was having when I took it in. I called them back, dropped it off again and when I said it still wasn't working they claimed "it was working when you left." Um, no. So they sat on it for another while. Again, no calls about it. I call to check on it "Oh, it'll be done in a couple days." Nope, not done in a couple days and again NO CALLS about it. I understand if a job takes longer than expected or if you need more time - no problem - but there should be COMMUNICATION about it to your clients. If I have to be the one to initiate contact EVERY TIME and EVERY TIME they tell me "It's almost done" - I call BS and I am will NOT be happy. In the end the scooter was NOT fixed. They suggested I could buy a new carburator for around $400 but at that point I didn't trust that they knew what they were doing OR that they'd be timely and communicative about it, so I took it else where. I would NOT recommend bringing anything here for repair. Maybe if you just want to buy a cheap scooter its fine, but bring it else where for service. read more

I stumbled upon this place while shopping for my first scooter. Jake and his partner were super helpful!! I was a newbie so Jake filled me in on all my options and what kinds of things I should look for when shopping. I went around to a few other shops and did a bunch more research online with my new found education. About 5 days later, I returned to view their current inventory and settled on the one he had picked out as my best option the first time around! Couldn't be happier!! And absolutely NO sales pressure! Jake was super patient answering my million questions and never once did I feel like I was not a valued customer. In my wanderings trying to find the perfect ride, many people online were complaining about the "cheap chinese crap" out there now. Personally, this sounds like the same kind of thing people were saying when Japan started making electronics and look where they ended up. The bottom line to anything you buy is to buy smart. Pay what you can afford. Stick to your budget. Know the features you must have and those on your wish list. And don't let salesman pressure detour you from getting what you need. From personal experience, if you are not a mechanic, when buying something mechanical, know where you can take it if something does go wrong. If you fail to have a plan, you are planning to fail. I did buy an "off brand" scooter. I got a great price for the features and size I purchased. I would have paid 2-5 times the same price to get close to all the features I ended up with if I tried to get even a used Vespa or a Buddy. Those are great scooters but they are expensive! And really, how often can you use them here in MN? I am 100% confident that if something does go wrong, if I can't fix it, Jake and his crew can. They have the parts and the know how to fix the problems many people encounter. And they are super friendly!! If you need new or used and can pay $ or $$$, Minnesota Motorworks is a great place to visit. Shop around before you go so you know what kind of deal you can get elsewhere. How else are you going to know how great their deals are! And the added benefit of having a repair shop can't be beat! read more

Always leave here pissed off. recently, either myself (or a family member ) has bought something here, or had something "repaired" or serviced here... after 3 visits I am done forever. latest visit ended up taking 2x longer than quoted, and because of some mistakes on their end, the final cost more than doubled the original estimate... 3 times now the stuff brought in for service comes back in questionable condition. my opinion would be, if it takes 2x longer and 2x more money than estimated, save the frustration and just go to somewhere else. read more

If I could give this establishment negative stars, I would. My bike literally fell apart both times I brought it home from them working on it. It fell apart today as I drove it through their parking lot. The exhaust fell off the last time he had it. Dan, is a flake and I will never return. I'm selling my bike, I'm so tired of dealing with them. I almost told him to keep it. Cheap parts, child labor, oh, and my brake light comes on every time I sit on the bike because they mounted the switch to the rear fork. Really........ read more

Went to look at a used scooter they had close to Christmastime when I was up in Minneapolis. I was coming from out of town, so texted about meeting times in advance, as this dealership seems like a sideline and is not always attended. Got no response to my texts, even though their Craigslist ad said this is the best contact means, and then when the day I could visit rolled around, they were not available unless I was willing to purchase the vehicle sight unseen. I can't take a dealership personally that can't be customer-proactive, even if it is to say they cannot make an appointment for a certain time. read more

Super helpful, very friendly staff. Full of great advice and knowledge of scooters. I hoghly recommend visiting this place if you are shopping for scooters or mopeds. They have new and used items. read more

We saw a used car on their website that we were interested in test driving, and Jake made sure to tell us over the phone that they still had one repair to make on it before they could sell, but that we were still welcome to come check it out. The entire experience was way better than the dealerships we had visited that day. I highly recommend checking out their inventory if you are in the market for a used car (as they don't have many at a time, I'd say check online), and definitely swing in if you are looking for a scooter or ATV. read more
