I have a Honda VTX 1800 N. I have been to Roy's Cycle and would highly recommend Roy to anyone. He knows motorcycles & WILL NOT sell you anything you do not need NOR will he do work that you do not need. He is a straight shooter and as good as they get! I like the personal no rush service & if he can do it in a day and has the time he will! Better yet call 1st, make an appointment and then let him do his magic! read more

They diagnosed my charging issues and hot me back on the road. Fair pricing, great work and excellent communication. Keenan in a motorcycle rock star! read more

I've gone to Roy's for a few years now for routine and non-routine maintenance on my Suzuki Vstrom. Every time he's gone the extra mile to make sure everything works right and is safe. From new tires, chains, and fluid changes, he's done great work. It's consistent and all at a fair price. Once he even noticed a blinker that was cracked and simply fixed it just because (at no extra charge). If you want good service and a good price, I recommend his shop highly. read more

Ok, so I meant to write this review a while ago, but I was very impressed with Roy's service. About two months ago, some d-bag cut the ignition wires on my 15' R6. Not only did Roy load up my bike and take it to the shop for $40, (tow truck is $125) he did a full service on my bike for $90, and it rides better than ever. Great service, won't B.S. you and won't run you up, and he will definitely recommend the best for your bike. Very impressed. read more

Roy's is the ONLY place I will ever take my motorcycles to be serviced or repaired. Extremely fair prices, super knowledgeable and you can tell he really loves what he does. I never worry that I am getting ripped off or being up-sold on a service that I don't need. For a very small fee he will even pick up your bike and deliver it when it's done- no need to arrange for transportation to get it worked on. I wish I could give them more than 5 stars! Thank you Roy! read more

Best repair shop in Santa Clarita! Roy has been servicing my families motorcycles for years he is a direct stand up guy. If there is a job that can not be done correctly he will let you know. He genuinely loves what he does and I have no problems having him work on my bike. Thank you again Roy for servicing our city! read more

Remember the soup episode in Seinfeld where the guy was telling you how you have to order your soup, well I found the motorcycle shop similar to that. I called to schedule a 10K service and tire replacement of my motorcycle. When I told the owner that I will be bringing in my own tires, with a condescending tone said to me "Do you buy food at a grocery store and bring it to a restaurant?". I didn't know what to say but I explained to him that this is a style of tires I liked. He said in a condescending tone again, "No, I wont do it. Nope, no, wont do it". Exact words. Basically, if its not according to his way of riding a motorcycle, he would not install it. I get it, you feel you are inclined to think that you have to have a cookie cutter motorcycle that should only use stock parts. I have been riding for 20 yrs. An experienced rider. Do custom work on motorcycles but I have never seen a business tell me what I can and cannot do to my own motorcycle in a manner that is insulting. You mentioned that you compare your shop to a restaurant, I think I get better customer service and professionalism in a restaurant than yours. I own my own business and I will never even say that to my customers. I will always advise, not enforce. I wish you find peace and kindness bec. you obviously need it. You just taught me how to easily lose a potential long time customer that spends exuberant amounts of money on labor work since I have a collection of motorcycles. My intent was to help small businesses near my neck of the woods. I gave that business to someone else. I regularly go to Old town Newhall, your shop is officially an eyesore to me now. read more

Fantastic service, quick to get the bike for service, great attitude. The man is very knowledgeable in his staff ! His prices are reasonable, thanks for your service! read more

I have always been coming here for years when i have a problem with my bike or need a tune up. Roy always gives a fair price and tells you what needs to be fixed or can tell you what can wait or should be fixed soon. If you pick a trusty mechanic, pick roy. read more

Cool shop... I can always expect Roy to be very helpful, knowledgeable, and cut me a good deal on the parts or labor I need....

Roy is the best motorcycle mechanic in town. I've brought my Honda VT1100C to him a few times for both routine and non-routine services. Rebuilding forks, new tires, oil changes. .. He's always done a great job at a fair price. Recently some bozo backed into my bike and the whole front end was tweeked out of alignment. Handlebars, forks , and front wheel were all sideways. Roy readjusted everything and it rides like a dream. He's the best! read more

The only place to have ur bike worked on! I an a long distance rider and Roy keeps my bike happy and on the rode to do more miles.

Roy is the only mechanic I trust to work on my bike. It's as simple as that. He knows what he's doing, he's an honest man, and he does what he says he'll do on time. He's funny too! I commute by bike: 90 miles per day. If you depend on your bike like I depend on mine, depend on Roy! read more

Just traded in my 2009 Kawasaki after 5 years of commute and 60000 thousand miles of no service by me and 100% by Roy. Over the years Roy have kept me safe, got me the best tires and fixed things needed. I remember one time, the stater got recalled and I had Bert's fix it. Of course I got stranded with a dead bike at the shell station. Called Roy, he came and picked me up and I had it fixed in no time. The Kawasaki served me real well and I stayed alive all these years racing the 14 to the 5 to the 405 really fast every day. This should really be in sports TV. Not a single flat in all these years. Strange huh, had way over 13k miles when I switched the last ones. So get this (and this is all Roy).; I got more than I thought for the trade in with the sales guys comment: "the bike is in great shape although it's got all this miles on it". Really, nothing bad? Roy is experienced and as down to the ground as they come. If you travel on two wheels in 130 every day, you need that quality of a mechanic. My record at 8 am from 14 to 405, Rosencrans (43a exit) Redondo in full traffic, 32 minutes. Beat that;) now I am 100 horsepower less on an Indian scout. But I am sure I will get that over to Roy in the future, can't beat my record with this one though;) If you have a cafe project he would be the man to go to as well. read more

John T. My motorcycle fell off my trailer when my hold down broke. I immediately brought Yamaha Big Wheel to Roy's shop. He did the repairs and handed me a bill that was a fraction of what I expected. Roy and his team are great to work with and I would recommend his shop to family and friends without hesitation read more

Brought my old xr600 here for some electrical work. Roy is the only shop that would touch the bike since he knew more about older dual sports. I just love going there and listening to his stories. Great guy and he takes care of his customers and prices are better than any dealerships in the area. read more

Took my Triumph Rocket here to have a rear tire changed. Yes, the bike has a wide tire and is a bit different. Long story short Roy had a bit of difficulty changing it and scratched the rim a bit. Seems like the reviews are more for standard everyday bikes, would not recommend bringing anything 'different' here. Roy seemed nice and knowledgeable, however can only give 2 stars... if you can't do the job there's no shame or fault in declining. And I have pet peeves like... put valve stem caps back on the tire when you are finished... details make the difference. read more

Roy is always a pleasure to deal with. I drop off the dirt bikes and he gives me a quote on what is needed. Never an up sell to something you don't need like some other shops do. Best of all, he is always on time as promised and great prices too. read more

Being a Triumph owner, I was looking for someone with Triumph knowledge, and lucky for me Roy was the man. Took my Speedmaster in there for a tune-up and he did an amazing job. Very happy with his service. Great customer service as well. I recommend this place. read more

Just read the review from the lady that was trying to pawn her bikes. I have known and done business with Roy for many years. Originally my wife and I first came to know him when he worked at a local motorcycle shop. We started taking our repair and maintenance work to him after the owner of the dealership allowed his son to run it into the ground. We have never known Roy to do anything but provide extrardinary service at very fair and reasonable prices. WHAT DOESN'T MAKE SENSE TO ME with this woman's review was why she didn't sale her bikes to a private party to begin with. Doesn't take a brain surgeon to understand that you can sale for a lot more to a private party than if you pawn your bikes. I know Roy well enough to know he is extremely experienced with motor cycles, and he can pretty much nail down a problem, or establish a condition of any moter cycle by just observing the bike and asking a couple of questions. I would expect that the opinion of condition this lady got was worth what she paid for it. NOTHING! Pawn shops make very high risk loans, and have to lay out hard cash for these loans. When their customers default, they must be able to sale at a profit. Only reason anyone would pawn their goods instead of selling out right would be they needed immediate cash, or couldn't qualify for a loan from an established bank or other reputable lender such as a credit union. read more

I recently bought an '01 XR400 that needed some work, and took it into Roy's for servicing. The carburetor was all screwed up (would you believe a wood screw was used by a previous owner instead of a machine screw! among other things). Roy and John went above and beyond to save my carb, making it like new again, and all for a very reasonable price, putting in more time on it than he charged. Roy also made some excellent recommendations on some new tires that are awesome. They have definitely earned my future business! I highly recommend this shop! read more

Roy is the best; have been taking my bike to him for a year now and has always been very helpful and reasonable pricing...

I just picked up my Yamaha TW200 from Roy's. It had been sitting in my garage for 5 years. It runs like new, his price was reasonable, and the service was fast. Highly recommended. read more

He's lazy, rude, and a true armchair mechanic. Likes to talk a ton and then ask when he can start charging you for taking his time, no he was not joking, and i was doing was sitting there listening to him drone on about nonsense that nobody cares about, and all he does is sit there and watch YouTube videos of mini sailboat racing. He expects people to know everything he's talking about and gets frustrated when you don't. My friend just needed his chain tightened and lubed. "Hey it would be great if you could just tighten the chain and lube it real quick, we're in a hurry" this is something I could have done easily in 20 minutes, but I didn't have a stand for my friends bike. Roy replies "no I can't tighten the chain, but I can adjust it, and I can't do it real quick because we're busy. If you want me to get it done today, it would be 3 or 4 hours and with parts and labor it will be around $160" as he sits in his chair and watches videos while the other mechanic does all the work. I already didn't like him and his work ethic and that just pushed me over the edge. I've brought multiple bikes to him and every time hasn't fixed them or something else went wrong. Also after not being able to fix my bike and admitting so, he still expected payment which he didn't receive. He upcharges, making everything sound more difficult then it is so he can charge you more. Definitely takes advantage of people who ride motorcycles but can't work on them. He's unprofessional, makes you feel like an idiot because he corrects you on literally everything, impatient, and just plain not a very good guy. Go literally anywhere else. It's mind boggling to me that he has 5 stars. Maybe because all his customers haven't tried anywhere else? read more

We took my son's CRF 250R to Roy after it kept stalling and wouldn't start. Another place wanted to do a $1000 valve job. Roy realized there was actually an easy fix. Total cost $0!!! We will only go to Roy's from now on! read more

Yup, second time visiting Roy for maintenance on my MV Agusta F4. Roy is passionate about his service to the motorcycle community and always does a great job helping to keep my bike safely on the road. Thanks for the perfect service. As a real plus, I always learn something new from Roy to be a better rider each time I visit him. Thanks for the tips, Roy, I had no idea that I was being overly aggressive with my hydraulic clutch lever until I did what you instructed. I always had fear that I was not disengaging enough to shift and so I customarily pull the snot out of the lever with 4 fingers before moving the shifter, haha. I did what you said, adjusted my style on clutch lever action during my ride home and bike shifts slicker than ever. Thank You Sir! read more

Roy is as good as it gets. He first worked on my Bandit years ago when he worked for a local bike dealer that thankfully went out of business. It took me a few years to reconnect with him at Roy's Cycle Service, but I am sure glad I did. He is the only guy I would have work on my bike. read more

What can I say, Roy is part of a dying breed. The consummate businessman who is involved with every aspect of your needs from walking in the door to walking out the door satisfied. His knowledge and experience make him second to none. Those days dont come back . read more

Roy is a great guy to deal with with fair prices. Also if you ride your bike daily, as your transportation, you get to go to the front of the line! Went there to get a new rear tire, and they noticed my chain was failing, and had a great chain in stock. My bike was so much smoother after they replaced the chain. I was having serious problems with that chain. Now I know what to look for. read more

I have a 2002 Hayabusa (GSX 1300). I brought it Roy's Cycle Service for a new rear tire, front tire, chain, and Service. When I got my bike back THE NEXT DAY it rode like a totally different bike. Roy's went above and beyond the normal service to make sure that my bike was tuned...lubed...and adjusted to perform better than when I bought it. The service was fast, professional, and friendly. I wouldn't trust my Busa with any other shop. If you are in Santa Claria and need Motorcycle Repair. Roy's Cycle Service is the only way to go. read more
