AATA 0 Posted April 10, 2012 Does anyone have any experience with M&M Off-Road (the old Precision Concepts location in El Cajon). They revalved my Honda back when they were Precision Concepts and I was pleased then. I heard it's the same people or part of and it's close to me, so I wanted to get a couple opinions? Is this true? Anybody have experience with them? Thank you! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bikeslut 1 Posted April 11, 2012 I heard the same thing... same main guy we also have suspenders (member here) that is in Alpine and people are raving about him. He worked on my WR... I only got a half a lap on it, but it seemed very good after he did work on it my next challenge for him is the DRZ... and I want it moto ready! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hoss314 0 Posted April 11, 2012 yes they are the same people. Just removed themselves from Precision Concepts. Unfortunatly, they are still charging the high prices that Precision has been charging. Depends on the bike.....they are well versed on Yamaha and Honda. I took my suspension from my KTM 690 Enduro and it was a learning experience for them. They gained the knowledge and lots of cash from me. Depends on what you are needing to be done to your suspension will dictate who to send it to. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dirt dame 559 Posted April 11, 2012 yes they are the same people. Just removed themselves from Precision Concepts. Not sure about who removed who. The reviews haven't all been favorable. Some of us received absolutely atrocious customer service from those people. I went there once, and that was enough for me. Since then, I have stuck with Bob and Diane Bell at Precision Concepts. Yeah, they're up in Riverside, but I call to make an appointment, take my suspension in at 10, go somewhere up in that region for about three hours, then my cell phone rings and it's Diane calling to tell me that the work is ready to be picked up. If I have some fine tuning to do, Bob discusses it very thoroughly, explaining what various circuits of the suspension will do on various surfaces, and how various adjustments will affect the ride. Their work is excellent and so is their customer service. I feel like they show a tremendous respect for their customers. I feel like they are my friends.

Uncle Champ 116 Posted April 11, 2012 I highly recommend Suspenders in Alpine, treated me right and was very fair with pricing. Call him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KTMrad 508 Posted April 11, 2012 I also recommend Suspenders in Alpine. He only did my fork seals and oil on the 950, but the service was great and he seems really knowledgeable. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AATA 0 Posted April 11, 2012 Thank you for the responses. I will talk to Suspenders. I have also heard a lot of good things about Javier at Trail Trick, but even less convenient for me. I'll post back when I decide with some feedback. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
amgems 79 Posted April 11, 2012 I have been going to Rudy at Pro-Prept in Escondido for a long time. I have always been very pleased with his work and prices. http://propreptmotocross.com/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AATA 0 Posted May 14, 2012 I figured I would follow-up on this because my experience with M&M was very positive. Customer service was great, suspension feels better than any bike I've ever owned and I brought my bike in Monday morning and got a call at 2 pm to pick it up. My buddy took his bike in the next day. He's a different weight and is very pleased with his set up as well. Prices were on par with most of the other shops and below places like Trail Tricks. Took it to Big Bear on Sat. and couldn't be more pleased. Can't ask for much more than that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Josh Don't "just" replace the seals...I made that mistake on my WR, and they blew again within the month George @ Suspension 101 is who I have been using with great success, but he's down here in Alpine- he is "suspenders" on this forum. He really understands suspension, and is fully aware that word of mouth advertising is the best; he takes great care of our bikes, like we are members of the same club, not another entry on a ledger Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Josh Dirt Dame helped me tune and revalve the XR400 forks on my XR250. It turned out great and made a huge difference. The price was very reasonable. I'm sure she can help with fork seals and new fluid. Close enough for you to ride to. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But as mentioned in the posts a few up, ProPrept is in North County and I've used him as well. Good guy... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
