Casey’s Cycle

They are very helpful and they are well knowledgeable. I can in w a broken plastic piece and they knew what it was right away.

Early on with Unilocal,there have been complaints about Caseys. Usually from yupsters on newer bikes that are spoiled little punks. You guys need to know that this isn’t the place for you, and I might as well just say it. Caseys is for men who work hard to keep their bikes going, usually the old iron and they have a ton of good used parts for that at great prices. This is one of the last great old tyme bikes shops in L.A., you panseys who want everything clean and nice and your way should just go to a dealership, you’ll be much happier, really. Caseys has been in business since 1957, with a loyal customer base, myself included, been coming here since the late ‘70s. They can fix any kind of bike, but if you go there, leave yer chickenshit mama’s boy attitudes at home. These views are not Casey’s cycle’s they are mine…

This is the only place I would entrust to my ’89 Springer.
No, there’s no espresso machines or fancy waiting areas. But there’e still a good hang to be had sitting at the counter and just listening in on the conversation. Out back, Sid knows Harleys better than any dealership.
The service is great and the prices are fair — what more can you ask for?

These guys know harleys. The chief mechanic sid is the man who can fix old and new iron. They’ve got a machine shop and a good stock of old and new parts. For us guys that like to ride old iron, the used parts racks are a goldmine.

Good shop, Old School Harley guys.
Took in a project bike and they helped me finish it.
Took a long time, several months, but it’s done.
Price was very reasonable.
Did quality work.
Turned out great.
If you want fast, go elsewhere.
if you want clean and friendly, go elsewhere.
If you want guys who know what they are doing and have done it for a very long time, this is the place.

Don’t go to this place. I wish I could give it a negative 5 star review. I can’t express it enough. I needed a tune-​up on my v-​rod so I figured I’d give them a shot and it was a very, very expensive mistake.
I take it in, and the old guy is already looking down his nose at me and my bike «It’s a sports bike,» he says as he shoots a judgmental look. I get it, it’s not old school, fine. He tells me the brakes need adjusting too so I allow him to do it.
When I get the bike back, the brakes kinda popped if I hit the brakes quickly. I couldn’t figure out why. As I was trying to pin it down a couple days later, the front brake locks up and high sides me. Oh yes, bike down. Ouch.
So like an idiot, I took my bike back there to get it fixed from the fall. Just give me an estimate. A week later he calls back «Yeah, so I saw there’s another part that got skinned up. You want me to just give you an estimate?»
Ummm yes.
«You want me to include the price of new tires in it too?»
Whatever man just get me back my bike.
That was a month ago, and no phone calls since. I figured I didn’t need it while my arm was still busted, but there’s no excuse. These guys wouldn’t do a good job even if I left it there. First Unilocal review too? Should’ve been a sign. The place is probably just a front for other activities anyway.
