Testimonials

“Thanks for the tip the other day about melting and deforming my coolant bottle. It took more deforming than I expected, but I was able to make enough room for it and the shock to fit. And the bottle still holds water! Even 2-up, the suspension feels a ton better, so I'm definitely looking forward to some 1-up riding where I'm sure it's going to feel like a new bike.” Bob Hodgeman

“In 35 years of having my cars, bikes, and boats worked on, you are only the second person to really care about my vehicle. That little ruckus shines like new. Brilliant work.”

“Great service with a great price. Will be going back for all my future motorcycle needs. Had a tire change, got in and out faster than I thought I'd be in there. Thank you 35 !!!”

“Just wanted to report back after my trip to barber. Before you added heavier oil and preload I was getting very close to bottoming out and the front end would start to feel vague approaching the apex. Now, the front end felt GREAT! I was very comfortable and confident getting on the brakes and trailing off going into turns. I sincerely appreciate the effort you took in getting the forks serviced so quickly. time to plan the next track day.”

“I first started working with Reuben in 2005, and no other shop has touched ANY of my bikes since (race bikes and street bikes). His knowledge of motors, suspension, race craft, and motorcycles in general is unsurpassed. In a sport where trust in your equipment/setup is everything Reuben has my 100% confidence and that has led to significant drop in my lap times. Thank you Reuben for getting what I NEEDED to get faster, and not what I thought would make me faster.”

“Reuben, Thanks for taking the extra time to setup my bike for my first year of racing. When I got my new Ohlins 30mm Kit and Penske Triple rear, I knew you were the one I wanted to have install it. The bike feels like a whole new machine and I can't wait for the season to pick up! Your dedication to make our bikes the best they can be has been proven yet again. And then fixing my 1000r for free after another company hosed it...really sets the bar above all others! I'll be back next year for more work.”

“Again with the stellar service. I'll never forget when you put those internals in those forks for me while I was in Iraq. You went above and beyond.”

“Just thought I'd give you a follow up about the work you did to my Tiger's forks. One word, AWESOME!! Since early May, I've done a few thousand miles of testing on roads in PA, NY, NC, TN, VA, and CO.”

“Thanks for working on my ZX11. The low and mid are better than they have ever been and the power delivery is smoother than ever.”

“I ordered my tires from Motorcycle Superstore on a Sunday night and had them installed on Wednesday afternoon. The service was not only very quick, but Reuben is one of the most conscientous and professional mechanics I have ever met. I will definitely be back!”

“ As a Ducati owner I am very particular about who services my bike. Reuben's level of knowledge, skill, & organization are second to none.”

“ I rode the VFR 245 miles today with a friend. We rode down to Southern Indiana. Wow, what a big difference with the upgraded front end! It doesn't dive, the bike tracks much better & just feels more planted overall. New chain & sprockets are nice too. Thanks for your help & advice on the suspension, Thanks.”

“ I'm extremly particular about my racebike and have a hard time allowing people to work on my stuff. After talking to many of the racers across the midwest, it was pretty unanimous who to take it to. After the consultation hearing what was going to be done to my bike, and hearing the process that you take to each project, I knew it was in good hands. You exceeded my expectations, and my bike has never felt better! I won't go to anyone else when it comes to engine builds, suspension, set up, etc. You have a customer for life!”

“Post a trip to Barber a couple years ago I encountered a minor oil leak which was initially believed to be the countershaft seal. My friend Brian Healea recommended Reuben so a trip to Indy ensued. Shortly after dropping off my bike I got some bad news. It was a crack in the lower cases. Reuben procured a used engine, rebuilt my lower and while he had the bike apart he performed a Supersport upgrade to the motor. I expected to fork out the national debt for that repair but when Reuben sent me the bill it was $1,000 less than I had expected. Not only was the repair cost reasonable but my bike outright flies. 2 seasons later and I have yet to do any work to that motor. Thanks again Reuben!”

“Hey Reuben! Thanks for all the advice and service you have given me throughout these last couple of seasons. Your knowledge and experience has helped raise my level of competition to previously unreachable heights. I am looking forward to working more with you in 2010. Thanks man!”

“35 Motorsports is the place for sportbike maintenance and upgrades. Rueben has a wealth of mechanical expertise and racing skills. As a first year track day rider, I appreciated that he took extra time to ensure my suspension was setup correctly as well as answering all my riding questions. Highly recommended. Thanks!”

“Reuben did a supersport build on my engine in January 2009. He took the time to find out what I was looking for which was of course improved performance but not at the expense of reliability. He delivered exactly what he promised. The engine helped me win 5 regional WERA championships and three top 5 finishes at the GNF’s. It has been bulletproof and has over 3000 miles on it since the build and still has great performance!”

“Thanks Reuben for the great job installing the Penske shock on my CBR. Thanks also for adjusting the forks to compensate for the new shock. Not many places would do that ... and if they did they'd charge me a lot more than you did!!”

“I have met Reuben a few times now at top motorbike racing events, after speaking to him it soon became obvious he knew what he was talking about, I trusted him to do my suspension work twice now and I am always happy with the fast, quality service he has given.”

“If any body needs bike work Reuben’s the man. He checked my valves, new cam chain tensioner, new chain, put on a set of tires, new plugs, set up my suspension and just cause he’s a nice guy he fixed a scuff on my engine cover for free. I highly recommend him.”

“Even for something as simple as a tire install, 35Motorsports treats you like you're their best client! I highly recommend 35Motorsports, awesome service!”

“Thanks for the help with the motor. Your knowledge is unbelievable, and the motor is perfect! Suspension is next!”

“I wanted to say thanks for your service on my Race Tech springs which worked great. I took the bike to Putnam Park and it was awesome!”
