I called after hours and Scot answered the phone. I am from out of town and was asking if he could inspect a bike I was thinking of buying. He knew the bike and was happy to share his opinion. (which was positive). He even called me back when he remembered the details. I was very appreciative, and if I lived in the area, I would be a lifetime customer. read more

So grateful to Scott for the good deed he did for us. His schedule didn't allow him to come and diagnose our Harley trike. However, he called and walked my husband through some steps. Got a new battery and it fired right up. You're the best, Scott and we will certainly refer you whenever we can. read more

I've used him 2 times 1st time was great But the last time he came he had to tune my Carbs on my BMW I felt he rushed the job and was ready to leave and the bike was not really any better ! I had to ask him to use his CARB tool for syncing my carbs. He is expensive not as good he was a few years ago read more

Wonderful business God bless them recommend any family or friend thank you for their service

Scot is quite literally a godsend. Not only did he come to my house on time to fix my Yamaha V-Star, he fixed all the stuff the last person "supposedly" fixed, and he did it within a few days of me contacting him. He also did a once over on the bike and caught several other things that I wouldn't have even noticed. Services he performed - he fixed the stuck floats that were causing the gas to fill up into the carbs, he blew out the excess fuel from the carbs, took off the gas tank to get to the carbs, replaced a fuse, dialed in the idle and really went through everything. If you are looking for a professional who will get you back on the road and do it the right way, Scot's your man. As for some of the reviews where they talk about the cost, I think it is fair to say that it is not necessarily inexpensive. However, if I had to rent a trailer (and maybe even a vehicle to tow it, and a hitch, etc.) and take it to a brick-and-mortar shop, it would be an additional time and expense just to do that. Since I don't see a ton of mobile mechanics in the Valley, he's the way to go. read more

Showed up when he said he would, did what he said he would, reasonably priced, good honest guy that deserves our support. Charged and installed a new battery on my old Vespa, excellent guy! read more

Scot did a complete fluid change and tire replacement on a 2006 Road King as well as giving the bike a once over, This bike hadn't been ridden or started in over 13 years. Scot showed up on time and with all the tools needed to do a masterful job. Having been a Factory Rep for a major automotive mfg. as well as a auto Dealer myself you recognize a master mechanic. Scot delivered service quality and price anyone could apricate . Job well done. If you are looking for quality and service call SCOT. Danny Keathley keathleydj@gmail.com read more

Nice guy. Showed up two hours late. Rushed through job. Left before job was done...because he got there late. Worked hard, moderate knowledge and ability. Exorbitant prices. Skip it. read more

if i was able to leave a review w/o leaving any stars, i would!!! scot is the most unprofessional person in business i have ever come in contact with in all of 51 years!!! not only did he way overcharge for his services, but he did not come back & finish his work!! he promised that after a week, hed be back to make the final adjustments. then a week goes by.... no scot to be seen or heard from!! when he did finally respond, it was only by text saying that he needed an additional service fee, & $150 per hour to finish the job he was already paid to do!! i had to pay a real motorcycle mechanic another $200 to fix the issues scot left!! he is absolutely the worst!!! if you are smart, you will stay far away from this liar & thief!! read more

I was referred to Scot The Bikesmith Mobile Mechanic by a friend who had work done on his Yamaha Tenere. For me, Scot did a first rate job on a routine fluids change on my 5th Gen VFR. More substantively, he also worked on my carbs for a 1984 Ninja 900. He was fair, personable, and reliable. I recommend him and will continue to work with him in the future. read more

Great value. He got there, very fast and knowledgeable. Fixed my Vino in an hour and was very helpful teaching me what was wrong. He was professional and well priced. I even live out in the boonies. read more

Absolutely fantastic service! Scot arrived promptly, had all the tools needed, and worked with incredible precision. It was clear he knew motorcycles inside and out, and he didn't waste any time getting me back on the road. What really impressed me was his professionalism and attention to detail. He double-checked everything before finishing up and even offered advice on how to keep my bike running smoothly. No need to deal with the hassle of towing or waiting at a shop--this service is the real deal. Pricing is fair for the excellent service! If you're a rider and need a mechanic who's reliable, skilled, and convenient, give him a call. You won't regret it! read more

I've had Scot come work for me 3 times and have always been greatly appreciative of his work. Not only is he an insanely fast worker (he literally runs back and forth from his truck to my motorcycle) and knowledgeable, but he also explains what's wrong and breaks down the diagnostic with me. I've never found a mechanic thats more approachable and helpful. I've also never had a fix of his go bad, so his work is always reliable. 10/10 recommended mechanic to everyone that asks for one. read more

TLDR: Following months of trying to get an appointment, I paid Scot $420 to attempt - but fail - to get my bike to start on 10/12/22. Today, he 1) Indignantly rescinded the offer he made in October to not charge me (another $85) for his return trip to continue to try to figure it out 2) Insulted the bike as "not being a motorcycle" and 3) Drove off. My bike doesn't start. - I have a small collection of 70s/80s vintage machines which occasionally require expert service. I hired Scot, following months of attempts (see attached) based on the strong Yelp reviews and his claim to be an expert "all types of bikes/all repairs". I clearly stated up front the make, model, and build date of the bike (March 1980 Motobecane Mobylette). It is a stock bike (not modified/not messed with/not a basket case/not a project). It has never been wrecked or damaged. It was running as recently as late 2020, however it is not currently starting. On Wed 10/12/22, Scot attempted to get the bike to start but failed to do so. He was able to quickly get my other bike (Jan 1978 Puch) to start with no problem but he could not figure this one out. He charged me $420 for the attempt. As I was paying him he offered to return "next spring" and "not charge me for the trip back up". Today (5/11/2023) Scot arrived only to immediately rescind his offer (claiming it "has been a year") and insulted my bike (it's "not a motorcycle") and drove off. read more

Service was great but the $65 show up fee was not deductible from your over all bill. He was fully equipped to do service on your bikes and very knowledgeable. Great service just a bit expensive read more

Might be hard to schedule with him since he's pretty much the only mobile bike mechanic in town. But he did good work and got my bike road worthy again. read more

I called Scott on a Monday after having an issue replacing my fuel pump line. He got back me same day and was able to have him come out that same week. Long story short, he was able to diagnose and fix my issue in less than half an hour. Nice guy who knows what he is talking about. I would recommend him and would definitely use him again. read more

Great guy and great service, very knowledgeable mechanic. He arrives with a fully stocked mobile repair truck. I'd call again in a minute - particularly when I screw up a DIY repair and don't want to pay for a tow to my local mechanic! Highly recommend. read more

Scot was able to dive deep into the electrical system of my 2006 SuperGlide and diagnose the issue of my headlight. Within a short time, he had figured out the problem and had the light working again. He definitely knows what he is doing and I would recommend him to anyone in need of service. If I need help again with any issues, I won't hesitate to give Scot a call. read more

The Bikesmith Mobile Motorcycle Mechanic - Motorcycle Repair Near Me

I called Scott because I was having trouble with my Triumph Thruxton that had been sitting for a few years. Scott called me and gave me advice on how to fix the bike, and it really helped me out! Thank you Scott! read more

I recently moved to AZ from out of state, and didn't take my bike out for a while due to intimidation of the metropolitan area. Unfortunately, this eventually caused clogged carbs in my bike, and with no way to move it, I thought I was in trouble. Finding Scot and her service was a lifesaver; he came out to my house and was able to quickly and professionally take care of everything I needed. Now I am up and running again, and it was super easy. I will definitely be using his awesome service for my future motorcycle needs. I cannot recommend him enough! read more

I found Scott on Yelp, and have used him going on 3 years and 2 bikes. He is punctual, honest and fair. I have recommended him to my coworkers who also ride. I will be contacting him shortly to service my bike. read more

Scott's reviews on Yelp are all or none. I tried to make an appoint based on how many great reviews he had vs. the handful of bad ones. Well here I am being one of the bad ones. I called Scott weeks out to see when he'd be in LA next. He got back to me a few days later. Said, "he could squeeze me in either Wed or Thurs afternoon." A day later he said "Thursday afternoon would work 4:30 to be precise." I cleared my schedule and NOTHING. No show, no call, no text. So I reached back out thinking there was a miscommunication (I went back through texts there was not) and he said Friday afternoon 2-3pm would work and sorry about Thursday. Once again get things set up schedule wise Friday and no call, no text, the day is getting late so I reach out, "He's caught in traffic an hour away in playa del rey" Two hours later "ok... was in traffic, stopped to eat... this isn't going to happen sorry." What a waste of time! If he hadn't been texting me saying he's still coming and just said he was too busy I wouldn't be here writing a bad review. My best guess is Scott has enough existing customers that he takes good care of he doesn't want or need new ones. Now we're the ones writing the bad reviews. Good luck. read more

I have a 96 sportster which had carb issues and wouldn't run. Scott came the time we agreed on, had all the parts necessary, took less than 45 minutes and it runs excellent now. price was more than fair and I would highly recommend him for convenient fair pricing home repairs. Also a very nice person. read more

Scot was absolutely terrific. My situation was unique, and when he saw the engine I think he might have been wondering what he got himself into. He dove in anyway and had it running in 30 minutes. His truck was stocked with everything he needed to do the job and his pricing is more than fair, especially when you consider the cost of a tow. Highly, highly recommend. Just remember he's a busy guy, so it make take a couple weeks to get on his schedule. read more

If you are in need of motorcycle repair, and unable to get your bike running, this guy is for you! Scott came to my house, diagnosed the problem, ordered a part that was needed, returned to my home and fixed the problem...he discovered a couple other things that needed attention and took care of them at the same time. He anticipated about an hours time, but had it fixed in just under 1/2 an hour. Sometimes it takes him a short while to get back to you, but he DOES return calls...he's busy, and I can see why. He is 100% reliable and I will use him from now on when I need ANYTHING done to my bike. It now runs perfectly! I HIGHLY recommend this guy and will call on him instead of taking my bike to a garage and dropping it off. He is EXTREMELY fair, he knows his stuff, and gets right down to business. This guy is the real deal, and he doesn't try to upsell you like some of the local shops. I will recommend him to all my other friends who also ride! Thanks Scott for taking care of my bike!! read more

The Bikesmith Mobile Motorcycle Mechanic - 2000 Honda Shadow 1100 - Motorcycle Repair Near Me

Scot is a popular man and for good reason. My initial concern of him being based in Arizona was put to rest as he is very communicative and keeps to his word. When he says he'll be in LA, he's there. To be clear, Scot is very busy. He won't always respond immediately to call or texts, but he will get back to you. He's an extremely knowledgeable and honest mechanic, as a former Air Force jet engine mechanic, I'd expect nothing less. He arrived at my place, we walked through the list of things I wanted to address. He said, "Cool. Should be able to knock this out in less than an hour." Sure enough, 30 minutes later, I received a text saying he was all done. He took the time explain what he had done and why, things that weren't necessary at the moment (saving money and his time) and his recommendation on when they should be completed. Highly recommend Scot to anyone looking for a motorcycle mechanic! read more

My husband was in need of desperate help! He Installed high flow intake full exhaust and custom cams into his Harley Davison bike. It would not start and stay running after the two day process. After going through Harley custom motorcycle shops and everybody he knew, he reached out to Scott-the owner. Not only did he devote his time into helping him he also made sure to stay in contact after troubleshooting took place. Eventually my husband found the reason the bike wasn't running properly but Scott never gave up on helping him. For this reason, Scott and his company will be our go to motorcycle repair shop. He definitely earned his 5 stars! read more

Scot is a true professional with a great business idea. He is basically the Amazon of bike service. He comes to you. No need to tow bike. Wait days for bike to return. He brings his shop to you. All at a reasonable price. The work is first rate with over 25 years of experience and it shows. I love tinkering on my bike Scot is flexible to allow me to learn from him there is no price for that. He is my motorcycle guy. Recommend him highly. read more

Bought my first bike a Yamaha Fz07 and I wanted a complete once over being that the bike had about 30k miles on it. I also wanted to redo the front shocks and new tires mounted. Called Scott and he was able to fit me in his busy schedule and give me a lot of knowledge on the overall status of my bike, what I should do on my pre load adjustments given my weight and upgraded my fork oil weight to ensure an even steady ride. Overall very pleased with his years of knowledge and tips that he did with adjusting my chain etc. He is very passionate on what he does and cares on how the bike performs while keeping riders safe on the road. Definitely recommend Scott for any of your bike's mechanical needs and he works on all makes and models! read more

Scott was there on time and knew exactly what he was talking about. We ran into something that neither of us had ever seen , but Scott stayed and figured it out even though he didn't have the time. Professional, good price, and personable. Definitely will use him from now on read more

I am very happy with the service that Scot provided. Great communication to schedule the appointment, knowledgeable, quick, and fair pricing. When he arrived I showed him the issue(s) I was having and he knew right away what the possible causes could be. Before diagnosing he explained the pricing and gave an estimate (worst case). He got to work right away and had it all resolved in less than 2 hours. He also took the time to explain the work he was doing and what to watch out for to prevent the same issue. He also checked all fluids and air pressure before he left. Couldn't be happier with how my bike is riding now. Thanks Scot! read more

I was dealing with an R1 for almost a month and gave me a headache, i tried everything i changed everything and it still wouldn't start and if it does it'll start for a few minutes and the second i press the clutch it dies, i finally found Scott and contacted him and he came to look at the bike, he's extremely professional and doesn't waste time at all, straight to work and he does a hell of job. I wasn't comfortable getting someone to actually come and fix my bike out of my home but I'm so GLAD i did, he got it working perfectly, and he tells you exactly what's wrong. I strongly suggest his business. He's truly amazing and knows what he's doing. Thanks a lot Scott. read more

I wont throw out other business names that messed up my bike, but scot fixed it within 2 hours. I will send everyone I know that has a motorcycle to bikesmith thank you again for all your help, I really appreciate it. highly recommended read more

Very disappointed Scot, I used Scot approximately a year ago when he had between 5 and 10 reviews on yelp so he needed to work but I guess now he's a champion mechanic that gets 100$per hour . He charged me a year ago 50$ per hour and no charge for a call fee,so he was very honest since he goes around with his truck without paying rent or employees and so less expenses. I can't say it again unfortunately,when he came yesterday with his same exactly truck at my house in Scottsdale(he came from chandler he said ).Called him and told me that he would be at my place on Monday (which later he said that was his day off and I guess he charged me for it to )very poor Scot . He came to change a tire on my v-rod (which I provided for it) and an oil change ! Before he did start for the change of tire I asked if he did change a tire on a v-rod before and he said "oh yeah several times"! Well that was a lie because toke him 3 hours to do it and me and my friend had to help him to since he comes alone ! So he charged me 3 hour x 100 $ . So if a job of an hour takes you 3 because you have very rudimentary way to do things that means I have to give it to you Scot? Also he charge 75$ for a call fee which it is an other ridiculous price! So you came to rip me off yesterday but I guess you don't care no more about being honest and fair so... I have bad news for you, there is an other mobile mechanic now around so you can't rip-off people no more buddy ! Oh wait I almost forget this : Harley Davidson of Scottsdale charged me charged me for a oil change 69.39 all included Scot charged me 85 $ just for parts Thank again rip Scot But no thank you read more

Service was great! I have a V-Star 250 that was down due to drained battery and clogged carburetor, so it was great to find someone who could come to me instead of having to have the bike towed. Service was fast and efficient and my bike is now purring like a kitten. Could not recommend more! read more

I had been a bit negligent and let my Kawasaki Ninja's carburetors get clogged up. I couldn't get it started and wasn't about to have it towed to the shop. I called up Scott and he got right back to me. We set up a time for him to come by. He showed up in what can only be described as a mobile motorcycle hospital. He's set up to handle just about any motorcycle problem. He was friendly, knowledgeable and got my Ninja fixed up in no time at all. I felt much more confident with him working on my bike than I ever did with any of the shops in town. He's my new bike mechanic from now on. read more

Scot - came out to my house today and finally got the 4-carburetors on my 1982 Seca 750 running like they should. After another shop tried and failed twice to fix them, he got them perfect after a couple hours. He is awesome, welcomes and answers your questions and does it so you can understand what he did and why he did it. I can't recommend him highly enough and the fact he comes to your house is priceless and makes the whole process painless. He can be trusted with your bike!!! read more

I called Scot a few months back after I picked up a 1974 Honda XL350. He was true to his word and called me when he was in the area. He showed up at 6:45pm (crazy that he works that late) and didn't leave until after 8:30. Not only did he fix a carb for me, he did some other minor repairs and did them all expeditiously. He's no time waster that's for sure. He showed up on time. had a smile on his face and charged me a fair fee for the services he did. I would strongly recommend his services and his knowledge of bikes ranges from old to new. read more
