101 Motoren

These guys got my bike running smoothly, charge a fair price and are great guys in general!

This is the first motor repair shop I’ve ever been to, so I have no frame of reverence at all. So why did I give it 5 stars? Let me explain…
I wanted to buy a friend of mine a new front tire for his birthday. Weird present? No. His front tire was almost non-​existent. Seeing I ride on the back once in a while… let’s say some self-​interest was involved.
So, I called Paul (one of the owners) and explained the situation. He tolled me to come over when I have time, no problem at all. Last Saturday (busiest day of the week for them) I dropped in with my friend and his bike and Paul popped in the tire in between jobs. Great service I think, no waiting at all! That doesn’t give a shop five stars in my opinion. It’s the atmosphere at this place that makes it a great place. Laid back, joking around but getting the job done. Also, I asked a ton of questions and Paul and his colleague took their time to answer them all and explain me technical stuff. Nice!

101 Motoren, named after the exit next to which they’re located, is a GREAT motorcycle repair shop. The two owners are also the two only employees and they are very experienced riders as well as mechanics. Not only are they experienced riders, but they’re also experienced stunt riders. They recently performed at the Moto GP in Assen.
What I really love about them is that they’re honest. If a job ends up costing more time or work, they will definitely NOT milk every penny out of you for it!
After being a loyal customer, I sometimes go in for something that barely takes any time and when I ask what the damage is they reply with «naww, it’s okay».
I was there with this one guy whose gas tank was completely stained and corroded from the inside. He paid a fixed price to get it cleaned, but these guys ended up spending MUCH more time fixing the problem that was worse than initially seemed. They ended up cutting the bottom of the tank, cleaning the living shit out of it and welding it shut and then applying a coating on the inside with the special rotation machine thingy they have. They didn’t charge the guy an extra dime!
So, not only did they not take the easy and expensive way out (having the guy buy a new tank) but they did all of that for the original fixed price!!! The coating alone is quite expensive.
I highly recommend this shop to ANYONE with ANY kind of motorcycle!
