Ah, you noticed it on MV! I thought it was funny that a scooter shop beat out motorcycle shops for the best motorcycle shop award! [laugh] Title: Re: SF Gate: 2008 Best Motorcycle Shop in SF is...

A reader poll I think. I'm sure you've had the Vino down to SF Scooter Centre, no? They're a great shop, and a classic case of people who love what they do taking care of their customers. I'm not sure of the exact order, but I think they got the top 3 right. Title: Re: SF Gate: 2008 Best Motorcycle Shop in SF is...

I haven't, though I'm pretty sure the Blonde has. I've heard they're awesome (is it Barry?), but they're not a motorcycle shop. I don't have scooter-hate, but srsly . . . Someone shoulda told us about the poll. Desmoto woulda been #1. Title: Re: SF Gate: 2008 Best Motorcycle Shop in SF is... Post by: Michael Moore on December 30, 2008, 09:48:03 PM Yeah, it's Barry's shop. He's a good guy, and has gone the extra mile for me a couple of times.
As for it not being a motorcycle shop, yeah, technically it isn't. Of course the poll seems a bit screwed up as they also have a Motorcycle Service category, which has Munroe in it. Go figure. |
