I took my 2018 Road Glide Special to Absolute for a blown head gasket and fork seals. Once Joel, Hunter and Eric got their hands on it, they started performing magic. During the tear down, Joel was in contact with me every step of the way. I was sent pictures, received phone calls and given all options up front. The crew at Absolute was more than upfront about everything. I was always allowed to come by, go back and see what was happening with my motorcycle. There was nothing to hide. I knew exactly what was happening with my motorcycle. I have owned my bike since new, and was never happy with the 107 M8 performance. These guys changed ALL of that. I left with a hot rod. Not even the same bike. I listened to the experience and findings they have with this engine, and let them run with it. There is no way I would’ve been happier with any other result. Take your bike to Absolute, talk to Joel, listen to what he’s got to say, and let him work. You will not be disappointed. I will be back soon. 2018 Harley Davidson Road Glide Special built by Joel with an S/S 124 Power Pack. If I could give more stars I would.

Oil pump replacement on my 2018 M8 Harley. Joel & company performed a clean and thorough job that I certainly couldn't have done in my garage. Tools, experience and those motorcycle lifts make the job quick. I might have done the job but I'm pretty sure I'd still be working on it. I'm also glad I changed out the pump before catastrophe occurred as these model pumps (2017-19) are known problems. I went with the aftermarket Feuling oil pump. The finished job is excellent. The cost of the work was at a fair market value. Overall, I am totally satisfied and will return to Absolute for future work.

Super knowledgeable, professional, and quality work. I’ve had my bike worked on here for a variety of things ranging from repair, maintenance, to adding performance parts. Joel and Justin get the job done! Only place on the peninsula that will touch my bike.

Absolute Driven Performance is one of those hard to find shops that are actually honest and love what they do. Took my 96 Supra there for some diagnostics and within ten minutes my car was done. Awesome shop, clean and very professional

I called them and spoke to Jacob about 30m prior to closing and asked if it would be possible to have a chain installed first thing in the morning. To my surprise he told me they could get me in first thing in the morning if I had a chain to go onto the bike, otherwise they wouldn't have one for a day, possibly two. Conveniently, the wife was able to make it to Cyclegear and acquire a new chain while I took care of the excessive slack on the soon to be replaced chain. I made it to the shop first thing in the morning at opening and they got the bike in and out within an hour while I sat in the climate controlled area. When asked what Jacob was going to charge me I told the gentleman I never asked. It came out to a very fair $44 with an additional master link. 10/10, would recommend.

Very friendly staff, gives you their attention and is very interested in your needs and the care of your bike. I really appreciate how I and my wife were treated at Absolute Performance Cycles, we brought both bikes in for inspection and needed them back but some work was required. Everyone is usually stressed when it is inspection time and I am no exception but they took in the bikes with no appointment unlike the two weeks to make an appointment at the HRHD dealership and then the time it take them to get to your bike. I could see they had bikes on the rack but although I didn't need much just a rear tire they treated me as if I were their only customer. I will be going there for all my needs from now on.

Joel took my engine and my build specs added some of his own ideas and was able to build a really fast and reliable motorcycle that I trust to ride across the country. Thank you sir for your time and effort with my ride. P.S. he don't cut corners so if you want it done right he is the man for you.

I am a Newbie. I have only been riding for almost 2 years. Decided to take my slim to stage 2. I can’t not say enough about how Joel guided me through this with recommending the right cam and taking time to explain it all to me. He even took pictures of the process to help me understand.He has reasonable prices and goes above and beyond. He will be the only one that works on my bike from now on. Thank you Joel / Absolute Performance Cycles!

Absolute Performance, is absolutely amazing. Dropped my bike off Tuesday for a full bar replacement, she was ready to roll on Friday. The level of care, attention to detail, and customer service Joel and his team bring is unmatched. They have earned a life long client, and I without a doubt, will be there again. You will NOT be dissapointed.

I have used these guys multiple times now. They have always done excellent work. Charlie is who I mainly deal with and he has always given excellent customer service to myself and to those that I had recommended. Their labor pricing is competitive. Parts pricing is pretty good. I have found many parts at a lower cost from their shop and I have found others to be a higher cost. This is normal anywhere that you go. Overall, I am very happy with their service and until I have a major issue I plan on taking my bike there every time!

I have a 2010 Honda fury and had some issues with the fuel injectors.Though the schedule was packed, they found a way to squeeze me in and fixed my motorcycle in a timely manner. I'm very pleased with the work. In addition, the guys were really professional. Had a very good experience with this shop. Thumbs up👍

A special thanks to Joe the Mgrs for scheduling my tire change at the last minute and to Jeff who waited on me right away as I entered the door and expressed a excellent attitude which is good to see in a business and Alex the tech who saw my tires and knew what need to be done and went right to it and was done in 10 minutes flat, Great bike conversation with Jeff as I waited. This is the service that brings you back. Thanks guys for a job well done.

Brought my Goldwing front tire in for a change out a few months back, The Mgr called the tire guy right away and he jumped right on it and it, he asked if I wanted the bead balance which was cool for him to ask, I said yes and in ten minutes he was done, this is how service should and could be for quick and easy bike business. Thanks again for a job well done and the bike conversation while waiting, I now have a ST1100 rear tire which need changing and good service gets return customers which I will do. Again thanks for a Job Well Done.

Found this place after getting a flat on my R6. Not only did they have my tire in stock but way cheaper than the dealer AND they got me in and out quick. Nice, friendly people who love bikes. 10/10 guys. You just made a client for life! 🏍️

I have been coming here for over four years. Every time I come in they greet me with a smile and call me by my name. The last time I came in was for my 25K mile maintenance on my 06 Harley Davidson FXDL and not only was the price fare but the service was great. They are also very military friendly. I will always recommend them to anyone.

Took my HD to the shop for some minor service work. I found the staff to be very friendly and willing to service the bike. The bike was ready to be picked up on the date they told me, and in my opinion the pricing was more than fair. I have no doubt it would have cost double at a HD dealership. Will plan to use them in the future.
