Spent a very long time looking for a shop to work on my vintage 1970s Honda motorcycle. I am so glad I found Madhouse Motors and took my bike here, will definitely be using them again in the future. The entire staff is very friendly and extremely professional, and the team of mechanics are all very qualified. I dropped my bike off for a general tune up, to have a no-start diagnosis, and to have my tires replaced. The shop fixed every single issue the bike was having and paid close attention to detail, giving the bike a full examination for any other issues or possible safety risks. They gave me a cost estimate before any work began, and continually kept me updated. When a new issue was found on the bike, they gave me a quote for the cost to fix said issue before continuing; no high-cost surprises by the end. The mechanics clearly have a lot of experience and expertise. I was happy to hear them say when I dropped my bike off, "we have worked on hundreds of bikes like this." They have tons of experience working on all kinds of bikes, from vintage and exotic to modern bikes. The shop may not be the cheapest or the fastest, but they get the job done the right way and were honest about everything - they don't mess around. Overall, I had a great experience with them and will definitely be taking my bike back here for ANY future work it needs. You will not regret taking your bike here. If you want the repairs done the right way, bring your bike here.

Other notes:
-They do motorcycle inspections as well.
-They only work on motorcycles and will NOT work on other vehicles (like scooters or dirt bikes)
-There is an awesome cafe right next door to check out when you visit
-Great community of people frequent the shop and are all super friendly

Update: Extremely impressed with Madhouse Motors. After some more electrical issues with my bike emerged, I reached out to Madhouse Motors, to which they promptly replied and set up a time for me to bring my bike in. They clearly take a lot of pride in their work and were very thorough in diagnosing the issues my bike was having; in no time, they diagnosed the electrical problem and pinpointed the issue (an issue that would certainly have been difficult to figure out for less experienced mechanics). Bike has been working better than ever since they fixed it. Again, if you want the job done right, bring your bike here, you will not regret it - the Madhouse Motors crew really know their stuff.

LOVE ❤️ 🏍️ ✌️ this place!!!! So excited to have such a great place in Boston to maintain my bike. They’re so passionate and artsy and technical. Very impressed with this place. Came in on a busy Saturday and the owner got me in for an inspection and took care of a slew of things that were overdue on my Triumph. I can see myself just hanging here this summer. Coffee and food in the cafe is exceptional too. Love this place!! Did I say that already? ❤️

I dropped my bike last May and searched on google for a good shop for bikes, J’s Mad House Motors came up from its perfect reviews. She was super helpful, professional and went beyond what was her part to help me out from towing my bike to her shop, fixing it for me, store the bike throughout the the winter and even help me to sell the bike since I wasn’t really keen on riding again after my incident. Her rate was very reasonable and performed professional work. All of her teams were truly bike lovers, I was lucky to found her shop and I appreciate her help all the way! 100% recommended!

Love this place from the cool visual ambience to the hip music. Make sure to stay a few minutes and peruse the compilation of sweet books.

I just had a bike shipped up from Florida and needed a place close by to store it for the winter. The person I purchased my motorcycle from recommended Madhouse motors. I gave them a call and spoke with Andy. He informed me of the price that included an oil change which was very reasonable. When I brought my bike there I met "J", the proprietor who was very warm and inviting despite her "rough and tough" look. Andy was also there. Checking in my bike for storage was seamless. After that I went directly next door to their Cafe and had a very good sticky bun and caramel latte made by Nicholas their in house barista. I'm looking forward to establishing a working relationship/friendship with Madhouse for all my motorcycle needs and eventually have them build the bike of my dreams.

I come from a family of riders and wrenchers, and I'm picky about shops. I generally do my own service on my bikes but know when I am in over my head. Madhouse saved my butt last spring when I botched a repair on my swingarm. Nick and crew were fantastic and sourced a used part and had me on the road in time for a big trip.

Took my SMT 990 in this December for a valve adjustment and they found a mouse had chewed through the harness. Lovely. I worked with Rami -- who treated the bike like his own. He worked to get parts at cost to save me some money. He was also genuinely pumped on my KTM and the LC8 engine. Had a great chat about its aggressive cam!

I'll be looking for any excuse to stop by the shop and talk to J and crew, and will definitely be bringing in my other bikes. Ride safe!

This place has integrity. I came in to get a noise looked at on an old bike, and rather than squeeze me on repairs the owner inspected my bike and diagnosed several problems on site, ultimately determining the cost of repairs would be several times the bikes value. They filled up my tires and cleaned my breaks for free and advised me to save my money. Will definitely come back should I ever need high quality repairs
