Steve at Shock Therapy has been helping me with my suspension and general maintenance and motor work for over five years now. Currently, I have two suspension set-ups: a WP Cone Valve/Trax shock on my 350 4-stroke and a KYB SSS conversion on my 150 2-stroke. Not only did he do a phenomenal job at the valving, he helped me dial them in numerous times at a variety of tracks. The confidence I have in my suspension allows me to push hard, thus enabling me over the last 3 years to take 2nd at the King of the West series, snag a bear at Mammoth, get a 9th at Anaheim Supercross Futures and take the National Title in the 45 intermediate class with OTHG. I truly believe that without his expertise and overall guidance those results wouldn't have been possible. To those complaining about time issues, understand that basic items are hard to come by, as is good help. Covid has caused most products to be back ordered, which affects timelines. Also, Steve will not just hire any old grease monkey and let them work on your bike like other shops do to turn a profit. As a racer himself, he understands the necessity of the bike being mechanically sound when it leaves his shop. Again, this allows me to push myself hard without worrying about a mechanical failure causing an injury in an already dangerous sport. At the end of the day, quality work takes time, so either plan ahead or be patient. So, to anyone who wants a true rider/racer to set up and maintain their off road or street bike, you can pick no better place to go! Thanks to Steve for all your hard work and effort - it's truly appreciated. read more

I just wanted to take a second to let any and all who are considering having any repair or tuning work done to their Offroad racing motorcycle to give Steve a shot. Steve's knowledge and attention to detail is second to none. As illustration to this point, Steve was asked to re-valve a friends suspension. As is Steve's habit, he asked the rider what type of riding or racing as was the case, and what the rider hoped to achieve. Steve set to work on the suspension and had it buttoned up. He went home and began to think about how he could make the setup even better for the racer. When he came back to the shop the next day, he completely took the suspension apart, made the changes he thought might even make the customer happier, called him up to tell him his suspension was ready for pick up. BTW, my friend loves his suspension. If thats not the best indication that Steve cares about his customers and in the long run his reputation as on of the premier suspension men in the business, I dont know what is. BTW, Steve does my suspension for me and I was floored at how much better my 2020 KX 450 felt. The suspension was right on the money for my age and skill level. I actually won my class championship this year with the SRA GP racing organization. Lastly but of great importance is Steve races himself. He frequents many of the local races and is always ready to lend a hand with tips and suggestions, be they for his present customers, or just racers in need of a little help. Please do yourself a favor and give Steve a shot, you won't be disappointed. My Best, Dennis Foster read more

I can not say enough good things about this company and everyone from their staff that assisted me. I originally sent my shocks out from UPS in Ontario, CA to Phoenix, AZ and only 1 of the 2 boxes arrived at Shock Therapy (stolen from UPS employee). I worked with James at Shock Therapy due to a delayed appointment for the shock upgrades. He was very helpful. They were even willing to order me the 2 front shocks I needed from a local Can Am dealer and have them direct shipped to them for upgrades. I was obviously charged for the replacements since it was a UPS issue and not a Shock Therapy issue. Every step along the way I was updated and made the process much easier. I can't thank James and Samantha enough for everything they did to get me handled. You both rock!!! read more

Steve is an absolute gem in the motorcycle repair world. His expertise in suspension tuning, performance engine work, and race prep is second to none. Despite being a one-man operation, he consistently delivers high-quality work, even when he's stretched thin. His attention to detail and commitment to his work really shows. Whether you're a racer, like my husband, looking for peak performance or just someone who wants their bike better tunes for them, like me, Steve is your guy. Just be patient, as his generosity and reputation mean he's almost always busy, but trust me, the wait is worth it. You won't find a more skilled or compassionate mechanic anywhere. I highly recommend! read more

Found Shock Shock Therapy thru a recommendation. Re-did suspension on KTM which had been worn out from so many revalues trying to get it useable. Steves settings solved the Issues. Very happy with results. Later Steve repaired the damage from a broken gear and big time engine damage. Major work but super reasonable final price. Steve has also done magic with my Suzuki 450. Steve worked with me to fine tune suspension to my perfection . I just do a service once a year and I am good. Whatever it is, he fixes it. I clearly could not afford to race or would not race, if not for Steve. Always knows what works and does not. Super customer service, even at races. Thanks Steve! read more

Just had my suspension done by Steve at Shock Therapy Motorsports...Absolutely excellent from the setup that I had and raced on all season of 2017. I really understand why I was beat up so badly and could not push like I thought I could. Just absolutely plush in the acceleration bumps, braking bumps, rollers. Noticed an increased ability to keep the bike in ruts and tracked perfectly in sweepers. I realized how bad my setup was from practicing on my old setup last weekend to the practice I had this weekend with Steve's revalve/rebuild. Thanks again Steve, You are the Best.!! read more

STR takes great care of me. I can count on Steve to to do the job right. I have had motor work done and only have positive things to say. He recently converted my kx450f air forks to spring fork at a fair price. Unlike other shops STR cares to do the job right and treats you like family. Alma also does a great job designing bike graphics. Lastly to top things STR does shutter installation. My family had custom shutters made and are stoked with how they turned out. read more

Best suspension and set up i've ever had! I've had all the big name suspension on my bike in my 30 years of riding and racing motocross. ST is by far the best.

I took my son's bike here for suspension work and Steve would not do the work because he told me that I should buy a safer/better bike for my son. Then, he fixed a few things on the bike while he was talking to us. This man is a caring honest person. Other places I went to wanted to charge me a lot of money to fix the old beat up bike that my son wanted to ride. read more
