So Cal Moto Pros

I placed a lot of trust in Chris, and had him work on my bike a few times. I agree with others that he seemed professional and friendly. That all came to an end now that it appears he has defrauded me and my insurance company by billing for new parts that were never installed.
In the fall someone had unsuccessfully tried to hotwire my bike — they ended up cutting all the electrical wiring and tripped the immobilizer. Chris assessed the damages and determined I needed a new lockset, new chipped keys and a new dash. The work took several months to complete and was pricey. When I finally picked up my bike, none of the running lights were working but Chris provided an excuse for each defect and said he wasn’t responsible — one light was burnt out, one was short circuited, etc. I took the bike to the dealership the next day to investigate and learned that the real reason the lights weren’t working was because the «new» ignition Chris claimed to install appeared old and had been poorly rewired. $ 250 later they were able to get everything working by replacing a key ignition wire that had been soldered incorrectly. After I got home I dug up my old key and was shocked to learn that it not only fit the new lockset, but also started the bike! When I questioned Chris on how this could be given all the new microchip programming that he claimed needed to be done, he stated that the old keys couldn’t possibly still work. He also said he believed he installed new parts but when I asked him for receipts he stopped communicating and I haven’t heard from him since.
After reporting the suspected fraud to my insurance company and the Bureau of Automotive Repair I learned from them that they have no record of Chris having a valid business license nor a mechanics license and that he appears to had been operating illegally. It seems he has now packed up his shop and relocated elsewhere.

The best motorcycle shop out there. Very knowledgeable and super friendly. I won’t take my bike any where else. Prices are reasonable also. For gear and motorcycle needs, this is the shop.

Most friendly and knowledgeable shop around. Chris will go out of his way to help out fellow riders while not ripping them off

Chris is such a great guy! It’s so nice to find someone who you know is a fellow rider and that cares about the riding community. I had a «blonde» moment and left my key in my bike with the light on while I was at work. I’m 5’3″ 112lbs and have never tried to bump start my Triumph. I gave Chris a call having never been to the shop before, and he came right out to bump start my bike for me. For that he has earned a loyal customer and I’m spreading the word. I’ll be down to his shop soon to thank him again and if ever I need service he’s the man I’ll be trusting with my most prized possession. Thanks, Chris!!!

I found out about this shop via my boyfriend. Chris was so helpful and honest when it came to getting my bike ready to be on the road. It just needed the carbs cleaned and he did an awesome job, took care of it very quickly as well. He’s extremely professional and knowledgeable, I know very little about bikes seeing that I’ve just started riding and he didn’t make me feel uncomfortable about my lack of knowledge which is awesome because some mechanics will tend to do that especially seeing that I’m a girl. While I went to pick up my bike I was also greeted by his very cute pup & his wife was also very sweet as well

Just got from there.
Tires change, lot of advices, great attitude and everything was for a very reasonable price!
Definitely will come again there.
P. S. Don’t trust the negative replies below, they don’t know what they’re talking about.

So Cal Moto Pros rocks!!!

I heard of this shop via word of mouth. And I’m glad I did. Prices are correct and the owner is a really down to earth, chill dude. I’ve only come to him for tire installations so far but I’m pretty confident in his work and abilities. Any questions I ask and he’s got the answer, even gave me a few pointers on body positioning when aggressively riding. Definitely my new go to place. He’s even got gear and parts readily available if needed.

Chris at So Cal Moto Pros is awesome! Ive brought my 06 zx6r here for the past 2 years now and he has done nothing but great work. Very easy to keep in touch with and VERY FAIR PRICES! He is a solo mechanic, but gets the job done right. Very friendly guy and super trusteorthy! I highly recommend him if you need bike work done!

Moved to Cali from New Jersey. Was hesitating to take my rocket to just any shop. Need new tires and oil change. Called SO Cali moto pros spoke with Chris never every I have felt so positive about taking my bike to shop before. This guy was genuinely honest and his price was way less then other shop in the neighborhood. When to drop my bike there as soon as I entered his shop it felt like a it wasn’t a bike shop felt like a homie environment. Chris was friendly, honest and all over great guy. And as a bike owner once you find a Great mechanic you hang on to it. Took my bike there once and was very happy and satisfy with his job, now every time I have any questions this guy gave me his personal cell number ask me to call him any time if there was an issue. You don’t see that in New Jersey at least. Unilocal only has 5 stars, if it had anymore I would give it all to SO CALI MOTO PRO.

Ive been to many shops and never have I left feeling as robbed as when I left here. He Didnt stick to his prices and over charged on the work that he did do. I ended up pulling my bike out of there b4 he managed to suck the rest of my account dry. Brought my bike to another shop.

ive used chris’s services multiple times for my bikes, hands down the best prices in the area! very friendly! always does a great job! anytime i need any work done whether its electrical or mechanical i only take it to him! thx again

Long story short, I messed up while I was working on my bike, called Chris and he fixed all the problems at very good price.
He even went further and fixed all the minor stuff that I was going to work on.
Conclusion, yes you should see him if your bike needs lovely care.
Long version:
I use Unilocal a lot to find good places, but rarely write any reviews… but I feel I have to write it for Chris at So Cal Moto Pros.
I was working on my bike, 07 GSX-​R 600 for valve job and some other stuff on one of the weekend. Unfortunately, I ran into an unexpected problem and was unable to make it run.
Thought I was going to ride and enjoy the Sunday… how frustrating!
So I looked up on Unilocal and this place was the only one open on Sunday.
I’m a very picky person when it comes to car & bike maintenance so I had to make sure this place is trust worthy.
Found the owner, Chris, from
and verified he is a long time rider and hard working mechanic.
Finally made a call and surprisingly his price was very good and he picked up my bike on his truck in 30 mins. Note: it was the Superbowl Sunday 3:30pm!!!
Once it was on his hand in his shop, he took time to look at everything on the bike and made sure they are in perfect condition.
Now, my bike runs like brand new and the engine is just smooth like butter.
I can’t believe how careful and detail attention he put on his work.
I think I finally found someone that I can trust.
The owner Chris is the man with quality and great workmanship.
Go see him. Enough said !!

Seriously, Chris helped me out so much. He goes out of his way to get you what you need at the best price and very knowledgeable all around. He helped me in the middle of the night to pick up my bike. I never would have been able to afford to get my bike fixed but he made it happen. I won’t be going any where else after my experience with So Cal Moto Pros.

If anything happens to my bike, So Cal Moto Pros would be the first place I would ask for help. He definitely cares about his customers, professional with his work, and is very flexible with scheduling appointments. His shop opens late. I’ve gotten my tires replaced many times here, as well as, oil change, sprocket change, blinker change, and chains replaced. He is very knowledgeable and I learn a lot from him. I highly recommend my friends to go here and support his business!

WOMM or «Word of Mouth Marketing» is believed to be one of the best and most credible forms of advertising (wiki). I am here to tell you that So Cal Moto Pros knows their stuff! Chris is one of the most knowledgeable mechanics I have ever met. It seems that there is no task too large, or small for that matter, that he can’t accomplish. Not only did he repair my ride but he was able to get it shipped across the country to my home in NC so I can be prepared for «The Tail of the Dragon». If he is not the boss he should be and if he is the boss, give yourself a raise Chris. I’d pay more just because of your honesty. That is rare these days! So Cal Moto Pros is the only place to go if you got two wheels and an engine.

Went here to get my tire replace. Can’t beat the price, because I call around and they got the best price. Chris is very knowledgeable on motorcycle stuff. I learn a few thing from him, while I wait for my tire replace. They are friendly and very nice to deal with. I also told my roommate about So Cal Moto Pros and he got his bike done their also. I will go back for more service in the future. Plus, they open late!
