The old bate & switch. They advertise motorcycle DR 650 for 4999.00 plus fees. price jumps to $7000.00. figure 10% for tax & licence that,s $5500.00 not $7000.00. I offered them $6000.00 they said that at $7000.00 they only making $48.00. If they cant sell it for advertised price WOW STAY AWAY STAY AWAY STAY AWAY read more

False advertising much? Bike listed for $9,488 but out the door price of $12,700. do the math.

Huge shout out to Dan for helping out my daughter. Your whole team there made one of her dreams and my husbands dream come true. Such a great team we truly appreciate your help. th bike is amazing! read more

This place is allergic to selling motorcycles. My brother and I were shopping around different dealerships to buy TWO Kawasaki Z125 Pro's last week. I called NCHM on Thursday, August 3, 2017 telling them my brother and I were committed to buying and riding TWO Z125's out the door that weekend if they beat or matched a quote we had received for $3,700 OTD for EACH bike (that's a total of $7,400 OTD including sales tax, DMV, and other paperwork). I called sales, spoke to Peter (I think)... he talked to the manager...and they sent me to hell! I told them we didn't feel like driving out of County, but they said to buy the bikes with the place we had received the quote from because it was a good deal. They didn't even bother to get me into the dealership to see if they could beat the quote. Overall, the conversation on the phone was unprofessional. FYI, I called 10 minutes later and spoke to a cool guy named "Uzzi" to see if he was willing to do something for us. Uzzi tried to work with me, but the same manager from before shut him down and in turn Uzzi had no choice but to shut me down. I am 100% sure if Uzzi would have had a different supervisor, Uzzi would have sold me and my brother those bikes that same day!!! Too bad Uzzi works here, he seems like a motivated salesman willing to work with anything that is dealt to him!!! Moral of the review... go to ECC or NCY (they will work with you over the phone. OH and they have cheaper sales taxes) read more

Do not buy at RideNow. They will NOT support you. Their management is only interested in sales. Not support. I used to purchase my equipment here but after needing support with a newly purchased Fox racing chest protector (missing shoulder screws) they told me to contact Fox racing. Kyle at Fox Racing said the dealer should help with the Fox product. After talking to the manager at RideNow to replace the product or help fix, they said they could not help and I needed to contact Fox Racing. After contacting Fox Racing support five times (15 min hold times each) they said to send them an email - lol. We all know support from the manufactures is difficult at best but when the dealers will not help you then your screwed. RideNow will leave you screwed. Lots of other places to purchase from. Do not buy from RideNow. read more

Summary: This place is dishonest and will agree on a price with you but sell it right out from under you the first chance they get. I came into the dealership for two weeks and talked to a very polite saleswoman who helped with everything I needed and was super professional. The manager talked to me and at first was very agreeable and said he could price match another dealer. I told him I was very interested and would come in to buy the bike as soon as possible. I stopped by the dealership about every 4 days after that for about a week and talked to the saleswoman every other day, telling them the status of the transfer of funds and how excited I was to get on my new bike. Fast forward to the day of the purchase, I walk onto the showroom floor, I see my bike. Super excitement sets in. I sit down with the sales representative, I start filling out the paperwork, the sales form, the credit check, everything. I finish the forms and it's time for us to sit back and let the finance department do the work. At this time I start looking around at my bike, killing time. A salesman comes over and slaps a sold sticker on it. I smile and think "It's really happening". Then I hear my name called and I'm told by the manager that it's been sold to another customer somehow at the exact same time for the full listed price as opposed to the price I had bargained for. But not before he suspiciously asked what I would do with my existing Motorcycles, as if if I was to trade them in somehow the outcome of this situation would change. I politely thank them for their time and exit the building, understandably furious. At this point it's been a full 24 hours, I'm fully calm as I'm writing this. However still livid that the only response I was given was "Well it's rare but it happens". No . It's not rare for me. Exactly 1/1 bikes I've tried to buy from you I've had mysteriously whisked away as I'm in the middle of signing for it. This kind of dishonest practice ensures that I will never recommend this place to anyone looking to buy a motorcycle read more

I told them about my trade, told them where I needed to be to make a deal, told them not to waste my time, and they came through in record time!!! First time I have ever not had to struggle with a dealership to close a deal!!! Bob Delia was a pleasure to work with, straight talk and straight shooter, we struck a deal in minutes! Literally!!! I dare you to find a better sales department. Thank you guys for working with me. read more

I reached out to this company with interest in buying a raptor 700. Jordan answered and said she will get back to me but never did. I reached out several days later to see if there is any update but Jordan insisted she reached out me to several times before hanging up on me. Jordan was very rude and needs to learn what customer service consists of. If you are looking for good customer service stay away from this company. read more

This is not where you go if you want any sort of customer service. I came in to look at a used bike and the salesperson, very new, needed help to get the battery charged. We were within 10 feet of the manager's desk and they couldn't have cared less. No "how can I help" or any sort of communication suggesting the dealership actually wanted me to buy their bike. Such a dramatic difference having just gone to another dealership where everyone smiled, asked if they could help and made me feel like customers actually matter. The managers here are too cool to be nice and clearly don't care about customer relations. I'll pay more not to buy here in the future. read more

Every one including my self has had mixed emotions about this place. The evolution will never stop. I am a local To vista so it's really the closes dealer to me. I stop in a few days out of the month to check out gear , bikes and deals. I have grown to have a relationship with some of the people at this place. We always have some story to say and since two wheels are our passion we talk about them .This time around I worked with Renatto awesome guy and had a blast even tho I was there for a while since my coworker also bought a bike that same day. The joking around and stories really made time fly. The bike I wanted wasn't at the dealer but he manage to get my bike from storage to the shop fast and ready to ride in no time. I want to thank the team that helped me out making everything smooth and fast. I definitely recommend to work with Renatto because of he's customer service and attitude as a sales person not to mention he's honesty. read more

PUBLIC AT RISK!!! Why would you cut into gas line at COSTCO with a fork lift carrying a 100 gallon transfer tank when cars are backed up on to the road, not to mention while the semi is delivering gas? Cutting in line was bad enough, but not being situation aware of the Extreme Hazard the employee was creating for himself and everyone around by maneuvering very close to the tanker is INEXCUSABLE. read more

Not a good experience. I went in to purchase a motorcycle. I wasn't able to leave with it that day so I said it would be ok to get a motorcycle that was still in the warehouse. They assured me they had the bike I wanted in the warehouse and it would be ready in a week. I was told the Day before I was supposed to pick up my bike that they did not have the color of bike I had wanted in the warehouse. I spoke to the manager, Brad, who really wasn't a nice guy about it at all. He told me " we already discounted that thing to the floor just so you could afford it" " we gave you a helmet didn't we ?" Then he tells me to just return the helmet and he would refund me so that we could " both wash our hands of this ". I don't live close to this dealership and I spent 3 and half hours there the day I bought this even though I walked in with Check in hand. I ended up taking the different color bike. Brad also said he would get me a gift card for the mix up. Didn't happen. I wouldn't recommend buying from this place. Go to Temecula motorsports, fun bike center, anywhere but here. They tried to Make me feel bad for their Fuck up. I am not even going to have my bike serviced there. read more

I came in 3 days ago and tried to get a 2013 gsxr 600 the cards just weren't in my favor that day. I came back when I got paid so I could get a better down payment and sure enough I got the bike I wanted and have loved it since. Shout-out to Nahim the sales rep who helped me get the bike I wanted and the finance department who helped out and made the process happen.

Just bought my first bike (2015 Ninja EX 300 SE) here, and these guys frickin rock! Scott and Ryan took super good care of me, and hooked me up huge, so I could get into the right bike and gear. Brandon took care of all the DMV and title stuff in no time, and the bike was delivered to me within the hour. I will definitely be back here for some more gear and tips, and probably another bike someday in the future. A big thanks one more time to Scott Ryan and Brandon for all the hard work and care! read more

Went here looking at side by sides. I didn't know too much about them and was helped by a super helpful guy named named Drew. It was like he had every piece of equipments specs programmed in his mind. He gave the facts on the good ,bad, and ugly and let me make up my own mind. I am extremely pleased with the process and would recommend him and this place to everyone. read more

I would have loved to buy a bike from these guys, but they don't allow you to test ride bikes. They said some BS about their insurance doesn't cover test rides, because they carry so many brands. I confirmed my current motorcycle insurance covers rentals and test rides so I am not sure what is the problem. read more

I literally walked in the front all the way to the boots area stood around walked back out and not one employee said one word to me, guess I need to come back wearing my leather jacket and carrying my helmet!! Customer service goes a long way. read more

This is my first review about NCHM. I have always had a hard time returning faulty batteries of the years but this time they really lost my business! I ordered a Barnett clutch kit and gasket for an 05 Yamaha Raptor 350. When installing the church I noticed a few extra springs and I knew it wasn't right but the clutch fit in the cage so I figured it fit multiple bikes. I got the bike put together and no clutch engagement!!! I emailed Barnett Racing to find that NCHM gave me a clutch kit for a 350 Banshee. I am done with this place. BTW their bikes are over priced as well!! read more

I had a couple of issues with this store during my visit today while looking to buy a new Yamaha raptor 700R. When I arrived at the store I was greeted briefly but beyond that I was ignored for the rest of my visit, absolutely NO one approached me to see if I had any questions or needed assistance. Even though there was like 4 sales people hanging out by the entrance. After walking around for a few minutes I was able to locate the vehicle's that I'm interested in and noticed that in addition to the MSRP, Destination and Delivery there was a ridiculous Dealer Mark Up for almost $2,500.00 with no explanation what it's for. As someone who works at a Car dealership I'm familiar with added accessories mark ups and maybe a market adjustment for our 1 of 1 vehicles limited edition/numbered production car's. So I was curious to find out what this mark up was for, as I left the store I approached one of the salesman that was hanging out and socializing by the entrance and ask him about it, his answer even though it was PURE LIES it was hilarious. He stated the mark up was "due to the Yamaha Raptor being built in Japan and had to be shipped from Japan to LA then docked and transported to another ship to have it delivered to San Diego. He further stated that the store had to pay Yamaha to sell there vehicles at there store". Which is funny because for every vehicle there's an MSRP and Invoice (price at cost/wholesale) an in that invoice states what is allocated for destination & delivery, marketing and how much profit goes to the manufacturer. It's all part of the invoice and has nothing to do with additional Mark ups or adjustments. This mark up is straight price gauging and equals to pure profit for the store, and I would've been ok if the salesman would've been truthful about instead the bogus story he told me trying to justify the mark up. By the way if your going to LIE at least know your product; all Yamaha raptors and off road vehicles are made in the USA (Georgia) not in Japan. To anyone considering doing business with this location BEWARE of the unnecessary/unjust mark ups. read more

My boyfriend was looking for a motorcycle but was undecided on which one he wanted. We walked in here and it took about 20 minutes before anyone even noticed us and asked if we needed help. When someone finally did, it was an older gentleman (can't remember his name). He walked around with us for a bit before he said he had to step away to help another customer. When he came back he said if we were interested in test driving/riding any if the bikes we needed to fill out a credit check form and pretty much be ready to buy the bike we wanted to test drive. (How can you sign the paperwork not knowing if it's going to be a good fit for you?).. we felt that out needs weren't met. We were even looking at the new Honda Talon to take out to the desert but soon realized we did not want to give them our business. We went to Harley Davidson in San Marcos and customer service was phenomenal. They were so friendly and not at all pushy. They even took my bf out for a ride. No commitment. Ride Now SoCal, you need to work on your customer service. Great customer service is key to making a business successful. read more

SERVICES --------------------------- I walk in, went to the back where Services is located, talked to Ryan about tires, prices, etc., scheduled an appointment, and just like that, BAM!, penciled in the next day. I know I could've called, but I really didn't have anything to do so I just drove over. So I ride up to Services about 9 in the morning the next day (my appointment wasn't until 9:30) and they just take my bike in, was told to come back in about an hour and a half. So I did what anybody would do -- Look around. (Man, were prices high! I was surprised seeing Bell helmets for over $300. [Bell] must've stepped their game up big time! They didn't really have a big selection of helmets to my liking, but I didn't really need anything else except a new set of tires) After an hour, Ryan (employee) called me up on the intercom, told me it was ready to go and gave me insight to easily break-in the brand new tires. I kept that in mind and also asked him about my mirror situation (mirror broke couple days ago on the left side) and he said it was legal to ride with one mirror, but it had to be on the left side. He mentioned bar mirrors and I asked him to show me -- bought them on the spot. He even helped me assemble it when he didn't have to. That made my experience at House of Motorcycles a really good one and I'm reassured that they're very helpful. d:) __________________________________ | | | NOTE: The tires I bought were Battle | | Ax BT- 023 for Sport Touring 'coz | | I commute to SD a lot.

STAY AWAY from this place if you are looking to purchase a motorcycle!!!!! Where do I begin with these idiots? 1. I walked in there one day and one of the salesmen approached me and I told him I was a beginner and I heard a brand new R1 would be a good starter bike for me. He said, "Yea, lets get the paperwork started". Are you serious? They don't give a shit about the safety of their customers. Their only concern is pushing bikes out the door. 2. Reasonably priced? GOOD JOKE! On the same occasion as the first reason, they had a 2006 Honda CBR 600rr for sale. The price of this motorcycle you may ask... $7,299 plus their "reconditioning fee" of $889. For a total of $8,188. That's without taxes and other fees. That is absolutely ridiculous. 3. They prey on young Marines! They claim to support the military but they do the exact opposite. They will not hesitate to put young naive Marines in more debt than they can handle and place them on a motorcycle that does not match their skill level. read more

Unbelievable! I saw a used bike that was in good shape in the showroom but the price seemed awfully high so I checked the NADA on my phone which confirmed that sure enough- it was over $2500 above nada retail listing for a bike in good shape. As I pondered why they would clearly be so outrageously greedy- I noticed on the tag a $895 "fee" which had no explanation. Guess it's the parking fee for parking it in their showroom maybe?? I won't be back and will tell everyone who will listen how ridiculously expensive they are. Karma!! (There were other bikes too that I looked at and all were very much over retail and contained the "fee") read more

Sam and Mike were amazing. It was such an easy and smooth purchase. We found the razor 900 2017 on line. Made the deal over the phone. Sam gave me all my options and at no point did it feel like a pushy sales deal. He met me at a price and interest rate i felt comfortable with. He was off today so turned over my sale to Mike. Great guy with excellent customer service. Financing was easy and even the finance guy was a pleasure to deal with. If your looking for an off road vehicle or a motorcycle this is the place to go. It was well worth the drive from El Cajon to Vista. I will do it again!! read more

I was in the market for a Kawasaki Vulcan Classic motorcycle cruiser and sent out feelers to several dealers and within minutes I got a text from Jordan at RideNow Socal to let me know that the bike was in stock in the Vista store. I appreciated the quick response and didnt expect it... As luck would have it I went to the showroom and spent time with Alejandro who showed me the bike and answered all of the questions I had about it. Alejandro owns the same Kawasaki Vulcan brand and I could tell how he was talking about the bike and his experience with it that I was making the right decision in going forward with purchasing the Classic cruiser. Alejandro was very easy going and made the sale process very easy actually. There was no BS involved and I have to say I always expect to have to deal with that in general with major vehicle purchases but this experience was definitely very seemless in my opinion. Alejandro took care of going over the checklist with me and making recommendations on accessories for the future.. Love the bike and highly recommend checking out RideNow Socal and be sure to ask for Alejandro! read more

I came in to size up my son who is almost ready for his first dirt bike. I was helped by Jesse who was super easy to talk and ask questions about my options. After getting his sizes for all my sons safety gear we spent some time drooling over all the other bikes and SXS rides in the show room. I didn't make a purchase today but I will definitely be getting my family ready for the fall season at RideNow. Thanks guys read more

Every once in a while I'll attempt to support local bike shops and buy in store instead of online. And then I walk in to a place like NCHOM and realize why I do most of my bike parts purchasing on the internet. In an age of Revzilla and Bike Bandit the only thing a local bike shop can bring to the table is customer service. And every time I walk into this store I'm talked to like I'm an asshole or an idiot, instead of a customer. Maybe some day I'll come to my senses and stop attempting to shop here. I leave empty handed every visit, out of shear frustration alone. Two stars only bc they're local, and the cashier girl actually said hi. read more

I know a lot of folks here complain about this place. So when I went in to ask some questions about a motorcycle I bought private party, buy some gear and get price quotes, I was a little standoffish as I suspected the employees would treat me as bad as the other reviews said they would. When I walk in, it's a pretty big store. And I can see how others may feel like they are being ignored because no one is helping them. People have to realize that there are only so many employees and there will be times where they are all busy. Anyways, I did feel as though pricing was a tad high on the new and used bikes. But I also understand their overhead. Parts: Trevor in parts is my main man. He answered all my questions and even when he didn't know answer he took the time to find out instead of saying, "I don't know.." Even though Trevor specializes in dirt riding and that's where his interest is, he has educated himself in street and was a great source on knowledge. Service: Service did a decent job. I had a bald tire and needed an oil change. My drain plug was slightly rounded off and so I couldn't change the oil myself. I asked them to do a full look over since I just bought the bike and had no idea what it needed. They adjusted my clutch cable free of charge and they pointed out that I needed a carb clean. $500 later and the bike runs great and I was ready to ride. My only complaint in service was I asked them to replace the drain plug and they didn't. I only found out later when I got home and looked down and saw it. Overall: This place has grown to it's size because of success. Unfortunately, the side effect of growth is lack of control, to a degree. It's easy to manage and provide great service when you own a mom and pop shop, but when you grow into a place this size, sometimes quality starts to decline because the main management can't be everywhere at once. If this company has any desire to grow further, changes will have to be made. I noticed the overall attitude of employees was kind of laxed and unhappy. I saw a lot of people hiding behind their monitors and I had the feeling I was being avoided. Trevor is the only one that was willing to spend his time helping me out. Finally, when you sell products that cost thousands of dollars, you will never fully please anyone. I learned that with my time in the auto industry. If this place want's better reviews, then they better revamp their sales department. It's suffering. Andrew W. Vice President Otter Properties, LLC read more

I'm getting my motorcycle license at the end of this month but I wanted to be prepared and have the gear and motorcycle I'll want. I shopped around a bit but wasn't 100% convinced anywhere. I went to RideNow and was met with James who makes you feel welcome and is full of knowledge. I was a little nervous going into this as I'm a girl and knew nothing about anything lol. Everyone who works here is super helpful, patient, and didn't judge any of my stupid questions. None of the staff are your typical pushy salesman, their prices are lower than their competitors, and they truly want to set you up for success. James didn't try to sell me the most expensive gear/ motorcycle for the business to gain off of. He wanted the gear and motorcycle that worked best for me based on my needs & wants. I would highly recommend James, Chris, Ryan and the rest of their team! read more

Smooth transaction......I have purchased a few vehicles in my life so this was not my first rodeo. I saw a bike I wanted on the net and contacted RideNow. From that phone call to the final paper signed it was smooth, I was quoted a price on the phone and that price and that is what I paid. Have to recommend ... My salesman was Scott. The paper signing was handled by Sarhra. The best and most important part of this review is.... I walked out feeling I paid a good price and was happy with it. read more

I got scratches on rear wheel both times when I changed tires there... My wheels are painted black. I wash my motorcycle by myself so I know every inch of it. It was a little scratch previous time. So I decided to forget about that. But the last time they did a lot of scratches on rear wheel. Also I asked them to do basic checks (100$). But they didn't give me any checklist about that. They didn't tell me that my front brake pads is about to die. Looks like they didn't do any checks. I will not go there anymore! read more

The guy who answered the phone had the hard to find product I was looking for. They were kind enough to set it aside and when I got there the service was impressive.
