I bought a brand new 2009 Honda Rebel in november 2009 from Santa Clarita. But before I chose to buy the bike from santa clarita, I called about 12 other dealers that were located near me. Each would give me their best price and I would call all the other dealers and see if they could beat the price. Bascially I had to facilitate a bidding war over who could sell me the bike for the lowest price. Santa Clarita matched every price, all the way till the price got down to 3,450. So it was up to me to decide whether to go with temple city powersports ( in san gabriel, california) or Santa Clarita Powersports ( obviously in santa clarita). My father and I went down to Santa Clarita to check out the place (kinda like visiting a college campus, in which you decide if the place would suit you). While we were in the showroom looking at the bike. Another customer approached us, asking if I was gonna get the rebel (I was looking at the rebel so this was an appropriate question) I said hopefully. The customer mentioned that he was waiting for his bike to be serviced and also said something that clinched the deal. The customer said that the service was great, he also said the only reason that he even comes to santa clarita is to get his bike serviced. So after hearing this, my father and I proceeded to buy the bike. Since then I have returned to santa clarita for my bike's 600 and 4000 mile maintenance service. Both times they took my bike in and I had to wait around an hour. But afterwards I could tell the difference. The bike was running smooth, the clutch, brake lever and brake pedal were all tight and even more responsive than they had previously been.\r
All in all this place rocks, my experiences there have been nothing but great. I hope this comprehensive review will hopefully be a deciding factor in someone's decision to go to santa clarita and not some other honda/kawasaki/suzuki dealer.
