On the Go Mechanic Company

[psycoreefer]

The idea of this company is to do just that... the idea is to have a great customer service by being more personable by going to them for all of their needs as well as keeping them from having to wait to get their bike up...as for price, my idea is basically to cut the cost of labor to offset the cost to go to them...which would mean by way of pricing they aren't paying anything more than going to a local shop to get their bike serviced or fixed, however they dont actually have to get their bike in to the shop to get it fixed or serviced...and by adding the convenience to the equal price i believe the company would actually increase customer service/satisfaction while cutting their wait time too...

Sorry, maybe I wasn't clear, or maybe you understood and I'm reading to much in...
In michigan, if I wanted my oil changed, I could call up the dealer and say "Hey, I need my oil changed, can you pick up the bike, my address is xxxx" then they would come and pick up the bike, take it to the shop do the work, and then bring it back. When they drop it off they have one of those CC machines and they just swipe your card before they unload the bike.

If that same service is available in your area, you'd have to be nicer to deal with, and you'd have to have a better price.

Ah, ok... Do they charge for picking up and dropping off? Will they do the oil change on the spot?...on that side of things the servicing would be done on the spot, using a trailer, much not unlike MX Racing where they have the trailer and everything they need to tare down and rebuild their dirtbikes on the spot...the service would try to basically fix any issues on the spot and only take the bike back to the shop if it required more than a couple hrs worth of work...such as an engine or transmission rebuild...and the charge for pickup and drop off would be included with the labor...so if the local shop costs $80/hr for labor this company would charge $60/hr for labor and $20 for pick up and drop off...
