PLEASE READ MAY SAVE YOUR LIFE! If i could give a zero rating I would! YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.This guy is a THIEF and is going to KILL somebody. I brought my scooter there with a brand new warrantied battery. Guess what its replaced with a cheap used Korean one. Ask for it back cause its warrantied. Oh it cant be found. Have receipt to prove dude does not care.Steals brand new battery! Thats just the beginning. I get the Scoot back it stalls at speed on main road after one mile. This is after I pay him $400.00 for a rebuilt engine. Ohh it gets better! I bring it back again he says some other nonsence and delivers scooter with empty gas tank to my house. Read odmeter same mileage I had written down when I stalled 1st time. NOPE NO TEST RIDE FROM HIM. Get gas premium of course scooter again after 1 mile stalls at high speed and I almost get killed. Yes this guy will eventually kill somebody with his chop shop ways. Still this gets worse. Bring back again cause he warranties his BS work. Runs at half the power it use to he jury rigs a new starter charges me another $60. There is more! I decide to cut my loses($460 to get rid of this guy was worth it to me) call original owner and he refers to the mechanic that originally had this scooter running sweet. It was indeed a great scooter probably with just a minor problem! Original mechanic states he stripped my brand new High performance big bore kit and replaced it with a $100 dollar model. Does the same with the Carburetor. Then proceeds to say that theres a load ping and its not if its when the engine blows.Says he took the spark plug out with his hand and he feels sorry for me. I google his name Hes also a slum lord and has had a failed pizza business. I pray for this guy daily because he is a sick man. I hope he reads this cause on principle I will see him in small claims court. Not about the money its about saving somebodies life. Scooters are dangerous enough as it. Stay AWAY FROM HERE!

BUYER BEWARE!!! The owner Glen is a lowlife and a crook. He is known for ripping people off and sells nothing but junk. Definitely NOT a real dealer. My buddy sold him an old broke down scooter that sat in his yard for 3 years. He got $90 for it. It had more than 8000 miles on it when the speedometer stopped working in 2010. It had electrical problems and excessive water damage. The owner told him he was probably going to take it apart and use it for spare parts because it wasnt worth selling and couldnt make any money off of it like it was. He left his business card so 2 days later I stopped by to check out the lot. Honestly couldnt tell what was new or used. Everything was dirty,weathered, mixed match plastics, broken parts, stickers peeling off...TOTAL CRAP! Looked more like a yard sale than a dealership. After waiting 45 minutes the owner finally shows up and offers to show me around but I had already seen enough. There were junk cars everywhere, old furniture and appliances crammed in a garage with stripped scooters. Ironically I saw my buddys old scooter sitting out so I asked how much he wanted for it and he said "Ill give you a good deal man, $1000 bucks, its a good solid scooter". Nothing about specs or brand. Hes obviously a con artist and knows nothing about scooters. The creep actually got an attitude with me and walked off because I wasnt interested in buying that piece of junk. This guy was rude, ignorant, and has no regards for customer needs let alone safety. I feel sorry for the poor guys that work for this jerk.

On 3/2017 my son purchased a scooter for 1100.00 cash from AMG. Two weeks ago we went in the shop and talked to the owner of the shop. My son told him that it wouldnt start. And what his Uncle said it probably was,he said Oh thats an easy fix Can you get it here? My son said no. The owner of the shop said heres my card,call me in the morning at 9. I will come pick it up and take care of it for you!! The next day,we go to pickup the scooter and it wasnt done yet,go back & he says it is 80.00!! I go in & ask for what? He says for 20.00 pick up fee! 60.00 part!! I TRIED to explain to him what our conversation was but he has no memory of it!! He says he cant fix it for free! My issue is.. The scooter is 4 months old!!! He offered to TAKE CARE OF IT! NEVER did he mention a pickup fee!! IF he had we would have gotten it there ourselves!! He didnt have a problem taking 1100.00 cash money!! Still have no idea what part he fixed,if he did,4 days later it broke down AGAIN!! Receipt has no information on it,so I think I need to make some phone calls!! I am a woman BUT Im NOT a stupid one!!!

Her it goes..1 year ago almost to the day I was charged $300.00 for a new motor when in fact they just rebuilt the one I had. Then it broke down and $400.00 later I got it back and in the first 3 miles it blew. After 10 calls for help and many text with no response I called a tow truck...$75.00. The next day Glen picked up my scooter said he would fix it and pay for the towing bill. After 3 days and many attempts to contact him with no response he text me with "Bike is done but I am NOT paying the tow bill. So after $475.00 I have a ticking time bomb. When I tried to call...again to ask what went wrong? Why wont you pay the tow bill I got no response. He sent his son to drop off my bike and he had no idea what was going on he was just the delivery guy. Horrible customer service........rude and no level of integrity at all.

Went and got a "new" rusty muffler with a faulty screw sold to me all in all $80. Muffler failed me 2 days later I called and told the guys, who seem to be nice there, and they told me no refunds no guarantees. Pieces of crap man. Charging me $80 for a rusty "new"I muffler with a messed up screw and a crappy weld that falls off 2 days later and they cant do anything about it. Screw these guys. Screw their products. Screw their service. And please SOMEONE open up another scooter shop around the area with honest or even employees/managers/owner(s)! Oh and did I mention STAY AWAY.

I crashed my scooter... and messed up my front forks... i ordered the parts my self.. but couldnt drive it to AMG... Glenn promptly picked up my scooter and parts! His repair man erik.. was the best.. im glad we have someone with this level of expertise looking out for us... not only did he fix my scooter! he went beyond to fix other problems like how mine steers to the left heavily and other problems that needed a touch.. i recommend these guys to anyone.. i left knowing i was in good hands.. and im back on the road again... 5/5 STARS!!!!!!!!!!!

This place is amazing. Ive been going to them for nearly a year now and theyve always been extremely accommodating, affordable, honest, friendly, knowledgeable and most importantly reliable. Not knowing much about motors going in, their professionalism has kept me a repeat customer whenever I need any repairs, which is often with how hard these Wilmington Roads treat my VIP. Anyways, highly recommend them. You wont regret it.
