I bought a vintage Suzuki in great condition and selected this shop to do a tune up and tire change since they claim to specialize in classic Japanese bikes. They informed me that I needed a new petcock so they changed it for me. When I got home(about an hour away) I noticed a strong gas odor and saw drops of gas dripping from the petcock bolts. The tires also felt like they werent balanced and closer inspection showed that the weights on the wheels were the original ones and hadnt been moved. I called the shop and told them this and they recommended bringing the bike back in. With my work schedule, it isnt easy to arrange rides and time off to do this so I just tightened the petcock bolts(which stopped the leak) and figured Id bring the bike in to balance the tires when I had a chance. I didnt have time to ride for a few weeks so last weekend I was finally able to get out on the road. I got about 15 miles out of town on a windy road and had a sudden flat. Luckily I didnt wreck but I was stranded for about 1.5 hours while a tow truck was able to find me and my insurance only provided a tow within 40 miles which excludes Atlanta Motorcycle Works. I had the bike towed to a shop closer to my area and when they looked at the tires they noticed that the issue wasnt with the tires, but rather the valve stem was incorrectly installed. When I contacted Atlanta Motorcycle Works telling them this, their initial reaction was, "We arent paying for anyone elses work." Considering I spent around $500 for a tune up and tires(purchased elsewhere) installed and I came back with a leaky petcock, unbalanced tires and, apparently, tires that could fail at any minute, I was looking more for a refund for the tire installation that put my life in jeopardy. Jason was very attentive to my situation and handled it as promptly as possible, contacting the owner. I was told that they did not install valve stem seals on my bike which is NOT their standard practice. And also that they would rather hold onto their policy of only guaranteeing their work if they can do follow up repairs themselves. I informed them that the RIGHT thing to do would be to come to some agreement about reimbursement for a job poorly done that Im now having to pay another shop to do. Acknowledging this, they still said they wont reimburse me. Finally, I was offered a free oil change any time Im in the area but considering the lack of attention to detail in tightening the petcock, not balancing the tires and improperly installing a valve stem, I dont think Id trust them with my bike again. It may be their policy, but its my safety.

I own a 1982 Honda Nighthawk cb750sc. I took it to Atlanta Motorcycle Works. Mark did extensive carburetor work, front brakes, and adjusted the cam chain. The result was outstanding. The bike has never run so good. No leaks or squeaks. I highly recommend Atlanta Motorcycle Works for all your maintenance needs. Ill be taking my other motorcycles to them as needed. Thanks Mark and Joe for a job well done! Gary Jan 7, 2012

Jason and his team do excellent work. Brought it a 74 CL360 that needed to be rejetted/tuned after some upgrades - had it back in 2 days, ran like new. Had other work done since - new ignition, tune-ups - offered solid advice for fork upgrades, then installed correctly. Taking them a 76 CB550 shortly. Anyway, would recommend for vintage bikes - glad these guys are in GA.

Called and got a quote for putting a new back tire on my Triumph. Work was completed within 45 minutes and was the cheapest shop around. Owner was extremely nice. Would highly recommend Atlanta Motorcycle Works for anyone looking for a shop around the Kennesaw/Woodstock area.

2009 Yamaha 1100, both tires replaced. Excellent work, excellent prices,friendly, and very knowledgeable. They know their bikes. I will be taking all my bussiness to them for my new and old bikes.

I purchased a bike from them, and it the fairest price for a quality bike. These guys are the real deal. After years of working with sketchy bike mechanics, these guys are the real deal.

I had a great experience. Fair prices with great customer service. I will not go anywhere else for work.
