Title: What happens when you visit Motowheels? Post by: asado on July 15, 2009, 06:04:40 AM long story short, after over two years of just phone and email communications, I have always wondered who is taking my cash on the other end. So, I took the 70 mile drive yesterday and this what greeted me... The new store front is huge, parts galore, carbon galore, all shelves are fully stocked and the display motos are beautiful (saw the project 1089, badass). A little over an hour later, I left with an empty pocket (glad I left my CC at home)... Im glad that they are still quite drive for me. Otherwise....
Meeting Martin, Brian (thanks for the diet Pepsi), Ed and Matt for the first time was a pleasant and positive experience. Very cool and chill dudes. They forced me to buy all these goodies [laugh] (http://img505.imageshack.us/img505/2783/img1803n.th.jpg) (http://img505.imageshack.us/i/img1803n.jpg/) (http://img504.imageshack.us/img504/1004/img1807g.th.jpg) (http://img504.imageshack.us/i/img1807g.jpg/) (http://img31.imageshack.us/img31/1381/img1826t.th.jpg) (http://img31.imageshack.us/i/img1826t.jpg/) (http://img223.imageshack.us/img223/6464/img1840o.th.jpg) (http://img223.imageshack.us/i/img1840o.jpg/) (http://img379.imageshack.us/img379/9383/img1844wyr.th.jpg) (http://img379.imageshack.us/i/img1844wyr.jpg/) (http://img145.imageshack.us/img145/3960/img1847l.th.jpg) (http://img145.imageshack.us/i/img1847l.jpg/) Title: Re: What happens when you visit Motowheels?

Great looking bike. I love those pipes, the wheels aren't bad either. mitt Title: Re: What happens when you visit Motowheels? Post by: Statler on July 15, 2009, 06:27:23 AM you're 70 miles away and it took you two years to go there?
fear of exactly what happened keep you away? Title: Re: What happens when you visit Motowheels? Post by: kopfjäger on July 15, 2009, 06:30:00 AM Very nice. [thumbsup] I have purchased serveral items from them over the years.

Yeah, they hurt my bank balance badly enough from across the country; I can't imagine being just 70 miles from them. Title: Re: What happens when you visit Motowheels? Post by: jesse370 on July 15, 2009, 06:49:32 AM Hell last time I CALLED them I ended up ordering a slipper clutch by the end of the call.
Title: Re: What happens when you visit Motowheels? Post by: asado on July 15, 2009, 07:10:58 AM you're 70 miles away and it took you two years to go there? fear of exactly what happened keep you away? It was a bit over 130 miles a year ago. I moved closer, I mean to the suburbs this year. Title: Re: What happens when you visit Motowheels? Post by: minnesotamonster on July 15, 2009, 07:28:57 AM Wow.
[bow_down] Title: Re: What happens when you visit Motowheels? Post by: MadDuck on July 15, 2009, 07:41:55 AM I've dropped some coin with them over the years and a friend of mine just spent serious $$ with them. It's like legal drug dealing. [laugh]
I had to promise someone that I would not buy BST's unless we won the lottery. Title: Re: What happens when you visit Motowheels? Post by: DRKWNG on July 15, 2009, 11:57:06 AM a friend of mine just spent serious $$ with them. I have absolutely no idea who you are talking about... [roll] I had to promise someone that I would not buy BST's unless we won the lottery. Sure is a good thing that Gloria didn't notice your crossed fingers when you made that promise. ;D Title: Re: What happens when you visit Motowheels? Post by: scduc on July 15, 2009, 01:14:25 PM You officially suck. +1 How dare you post on the forum. Do you know how you make people feel. [bow_down]Title: Re: What happens when you visit Motowheels? Post by: fastwin on July 15, 2009, 01:42:53 PM Wonder if they'd take a low mileage twelve year old Boy Scout in on trade for the BSTs? If his Mom notices him missing I'll just say he's playing PS2 with the neighbor kids! [laugh]
Motowheels has drained my wallet a couple of times but I recovered! Good folks. [thumbsup] By the way, really sweet SF! [clap] Title: Re: What happens when you visit Motowheels? Post by: swampduc on July 15, 2009, 02:40:50 PM Damn you, I'm now debating whether to delay buying a home in order to get BST's! [bang]
Title: Re: What happens when you visit Motowheels? Post by: El Matador on July 15, 2009, 02:59:09 PM Damn you, I'm now debating whether to delay buying a home in order to get BST's! [bang] Totally worth it. [evil] But only if I get to ride it ;D Title: Re: What happens when you visit Motowheels? Post by: nikkimonster on July 15, 2009, 04:02:47 PM i heard about them for only 2 weeks and 87 miles later. i drove there the next saturday got the x-box and 2 sets of oberon turn signals for my 07-s4rt. brian very helpful.

[bow_down] Title: Re: What happens when you visit Motowheels? Post by: NAKID on July 15, 2009, 05:08:06 PM So, you went from "I'm keeping this one stock" to already having CF wheels? Wow....
Title: Re: What happens when you visit Motowheels? Post by: Itsasickness on July 15, 2009, 05:15:05 PM WOW! great looking bike. Ironically, I'm in the same situation as you (proximity), but have never rolled by either, just started working up in Sactown sometimes, but am scared to go (for what I'll end up doing) again bike looks great [thumbsup]
Title: Re: What happens when you visit Motowheels? Post by: duc996 on July 15, 2009, 05:47:49 PM How much for the CF wheels?Nice ride BTW [thumbsup]

Post by: DRKWNG on July 15, 2009, 06:36:05 PM I had to look 'em up when I saw these pics. :o Yep, it's best not looking. Just memorize your card number, make the call and then close your eyes.

Post by: DoubleEagle on July 15, 2009, 08:44:34 PM It's a good thing I can't get my member discount to work at a glance or I'd I've spent lots more than I have by calling Matt and telling him my user name and password to find out what the discount price is.

That thing looks awesome. Just like the S4RS you had, that thing is turning into serious bike porn. |
