Maximum Motorsports

After receiving my motorcycle license 2 months ago I began searching for my first bike. I had read positive reviews about Maximum Motorsports in Riverhead, so I went by for a visit. My experience at Maximum was great. Scott (Sales) and John (General Manager) made me feel very confident that purchasing a Triumph Bonneville was a great first bike for me. Since then, I went ahead and made several upgrades to my bike with the assistance of the service department. John, the Service Manager, is extremely knowledgable and talented. He took the time to explain to me the best options for my bike, and I am confident that the upgrades I made were the right ones. My Triumph looks sweet, and rides amazing. If you are in the market for a motorcycle, definitely give them a visit. They will bend over backwards to take care of you.

Don’t get tricked into buying any extended warranty, apparently their service/​parts department doesn’t know what the moto companies actually cover… Only good experience was with the salesperson called John

THEY ARE THE BEST!!! We have three different bikes from them, 2 are mine and 1 is my brothers. I refer everyone here. My friend recently bought a jet ski here too. Always pleased with how courteous the staff are. They all are always so welcoming and friendly. John is our #1 guy. He makes us feel like family. He bends over backwards to get me the best deal and makes the whole process & everything go smoothly. All around pleased with their business and service.

All around great dealership! I’m on my third bike from them and they are always there for me. No matter what I need, they take care of it!

Went shopping for a new helmet. If you are truly safety minded you know you can by a new lid off the internet sight unseen. A helmet must fit like a glove and be right for your head. To add some complexity, I wanted a convertible helmet which not many paces carry much selection in. After stopping in about four other shops I get to Maximum Motorsports. After I see what they have on the varied shelves, the young lady behind the counter, Ashley I believe, tells me that they are willing to special order and price match anywhere else. I told her my predicament. Based on reviews I was between three helmets but needed to try them on to validate my choices. Her offer, she would bring in the different helmets in the various sizes for me to try with no obligation. I could try them on, find the one that works and they would deal with he others. We struck a deal on a Nolan N104, I left a deposit and the helmets were ordered.
When they came in, and I got back from traveling, I went in, tried the helmets on and made my choice. That simple. At no time did they say «Hey if we go through all of this trouble you must buy our helmet.» I could have done this with a couple of on-​line vendors as well, but their typical offer was to send you one helmet at a time with free exchange. This would have taken weeks to find the right helmet and size.
So I’m a fan of Maximum Motorsports for great service at the parts counter. I recommend you give them a chance to give you excellent service as well.

I’d give a zero if I could. Stay away from these overpriced, sleazy, con artists, bought a bike new from them years ago and they delivered with a scratched side fairing. Took delivery as they said they would fix, no problem. Definitely not the case, promised it was on order etc., ended up having to call Suzuki America etc, and still ended up with no replacement. Avoid at all costs.

Much that I generally tend to support the reviews of consumers vs businesses, but my personal experience at Maximum Motorsports was the opposite of the previous reviewer’s.
I was pleasantly surprised at the no-​pressure sales first at a different bikes sale place in Bay Shore, and then in my visit here to Maximum in Riverhead.
The guy I spoke to on the phone, Derek, was a hard core rider, with tattoos and other interesting personality traits. :-) But, a really sweet, friendly, caring guy and thorough gentleman. He was awesome to deal with. A no pressure, very easy to work with, and make a deal with salesperson.
I had waited 30 years to get my 2^nd Yamaha, and they had the 2011 Red/​Black YZF-​R6 on display. I was able to spend time with the bike, I wanted a couple of pics taken, and they obliged (before I even spent a dime).
I came back the next time with cash in my pocket. They made me a deal which I felt was reasonable, and fair. I even spent extra money buying the Yamaha extended warranty.
Again, this was all personal cash out of pocket, so the no-​pressure sales attitude was appreciated. Then Derek, another really cool dude Chris, I think, and a guy behind the counter (sorry forgot his name), ALL answered any questions I had… and helped me pick out helmets, and whatever else I wanted.
I tried on some jackets. They offered me good discounts. I did not buy one. No one’s attitude changed. I have since gone back just to say Hi.
The deal was done with no problems, the paperwork was done quickly by the lady who handles that. The bike was ready when promised. It was delivered where I wanted and when I wanted it.
Derek spent time briefing me on it’s use, in my driveway, more out of decency and courtesy, than some assumed part of the deal, hours after the deal was done, even thought it was already 7 PM on Friday.
On my follow up visits, Derek, Chris and 2 other people took a lot of time even going over multiple requests from me, eg, showing me catalogs of this or that gear maker, finding matching gloves, etc. Everyone was great.
I will see how they treat me when it is time to get the 500 miles, and future services, etc. But, so far, I heartily recommend, Derek, and this establishment for your motorcycle, scooter, and, I believe, jet ski needs.
Note: I have no financial interest in this place of any kind.
