Beemers Uber Alles

I have BUA do all work that I cannot, or prefer not, to do. Manassas isn’t really conveniently located for me, but it is worth the trip. On occasion, I had to leave my bike at the shop for several days (awaiting parts). When the wife isn’t available to shuttle me for drop-​off/​pick-​up, George is always willing to pick me up at the train station, if needed. Great work, good price, and George is a heck of a nice guy.

Took my K1200GT rims and new tires to have them installed. George replaced the tires in about 30 minutes at a decent price. I had a question about a part and he was kind enough to answer and even brought a part to show me how it worked. I will definitely come back to use their service when needed.

George is the man! Just had my shocks replaced on saturday jan 9 2015, drove from baltimore, md and the price and service was fantastic and quick!

I took my wife’s 2005 BMW F650CS there. Her bike had some electrical issues that were strange and intermittent. I was expecting a dealer to just replace all kinds of electrical stuff and charge me an arm and a leg. So I called and asked around, and was referred to George at Beemers Über Alles.
George was FANTASTIC. He did really fast work, less than one day, better than expected results and then handed me a bill for (while entirely realistic hourly rate) was much less than I would have expected from any other shop. It was actually FAIR! I mean he disassembled the instrument cluster, found a few chaffed wires (from vibration) he fixed them, and wrapped them with good electrical tape and zip tied everything. Put it all back together nice and neat, and returned the bike clean as a whistle with not even a smudge, much less a scratch on the plastic. He even replaced a few bulbs (for the backlight) of the instrument cluster that I didn’t know were burned out. He said he did it just because while having that taken aparit it didn’t make sense not to do so. Because I hadn’t asked for that, he GAVE me the bulbs (said he had some in stock anyway) WHA!!! Have you EVER heard of a mechanics shop giving you something they could charge $ 15 for?
He adjusted things on the bike that I didn’t even know were incorrect, but once he pointed them out it was obvious he was correct. (BTW, he didn’t bill me for that work) He told me that he didn’t feel right letting me ride with the bike setup that way, since he said it would cause problems on the bike later if it wasn’t adjusted.
His shop isn’t fancy, but it is reasonable clean and functionally organized.
I’ll definitely think of taking my other bikes to him, even though it is a long haul from my house to get there.

The Mechanic (George) is a straight shooter and will not steer you in wrong direction. I take both of my Beemers their for maintenance and repairs. George always fixes my MC issues and never overcharges. Fixes what I needed to fix and nothing more and never has an issue when I bring in my parts. What else could anyone ask for. George goes beyond his way to assist. One time when I just repaired my Airhead and riding the bike home. George warned me before leaving that I’m on reserve. On my way to home and was going to stop at the first gas station, however I never made it to the gas station. I could have either pushed the bike ½ mile or called AAA but thought I give George a call just in case it wasn’t any issue with the newly repaired bike. George said it wasn’t necessary he knew where I was and came by just to inspect the bike to make sure it wasn’t anything he did. As it turned out, I ran out of gas. George put in ½ gallon of gas and I was on my way. He made a comment he was happy he didn’t have to trailer the bike back for repair he may have missed, which wasn’t the case at all. Too bad he doesn’t work on Ducatis!

If you are looking for a mechanic who will give you his honest opinion, will help you work through the issues you have with your BMW motorcycle, George, the owner of BUA is your guy.
A couple of years ago, the flange supporting my rear brake assembly sheared. He could have fixed it, but reminded me it was under warranty and it would be better if it went to a dealer for repair. Not only did he remind me, he arranged with the dealer to have it picked up. Amazing!
Since then, all my work goes to BUA. His estimates are right on, there are no surprises; and he even allows you to bring your own parts if it works better for you. When you add that George will offer you a loaner while he is working on your bike, it would be would be hard to find a better place to get your BMW motorcycle serviced. Check him out; it will be worth your time.

I just picked up my old R100 on Saturday after George fixed a list of issues. He installed new brake lines and pads, a new oil pressure switch, changed the gear oil and tuned it up a bit — I could not be happier with the work. An annoying oil leak was fixed, it runs and sounds better, it stops quickly (and quietly) and with the new braided steel brake lines — it even looks better. This was done for a very reasonable price and came in below the original estimate.

George is maintaining my R1200GS for last 3 years.
Always on schedule, always perfect work, and a great guy to talk to — he will tell you what to do, what is best for your riding style, not what makes him most of the money.
(and yes, he replies to e-​mails :-)
As good as it gets.

George is awesome. He’s done a couple things for me on my bike, and has done a great job every time. He’s friendly and knowledgeable, and generally pleasant to chat with. Last time I went in he even sold me a slightly used Corbin seat dirt cheap to replace my torn OEM seat. I’m not planning on taking my bike anyplace else!
