Slim’s motorcycle repair LUFKIN, Texas (100% scam, thief, unethical, unqualified)

AUTHOR: Mr. J - ()

POSTED: Thursday, December 07, 2023

 If he does the right thing , it will be updated here. To be clear he: -Installed a performance clutch incorrectly -advised to ride on it 'creeping’ no stopping just braking to stall -total disregard for safety -overcharged (refused written estimate) -did no cosmetic/custom work just stole firearms Imagine he only offered to 'drop it off’ yeah, right. So he can name some thieving price or steal more things. Anything left on his propperty he will steal it if terror style blackmail blank check (whatever he feels like charging you) is not paid. He needs to give back the guns, he injured me and destroyed an amazing motorcycle all from his ignorance and greed. Will update immediately if he contacts me to make it right (VERY unlikely).

Also was paid for cosmetic work not done

AUTHOR: Mr. J - (United States)

POSTED: Thursday, December 07, 2023

 Slim loser scammer scum bag just stole guns and wrecked a motorcycle. Even MORE the payment was for custom work as the awesome bike had a new fairing out on by me. He did no body work or paint just wrecked the bike, stole the firearms and blocked me. Maybe a blessing given the history probably avoided him destroying the bike or stealing the vehicle. What a scum bag and loser. It doesn’t matter if he did good work some time ago on another vehicle. No estimates , instructing people to 'drop off the bike’ like Ross Motorsports said you HAVE to pay his blank check or take him to court WHEN HE STEALS YOUR BIKE. These are all facts he didn’t care when the bike was not operating, stranding the rider, and just robbed guns. Mr 'Mak’in that money’ bum loser backyard shed wannabe mechanic (part time) lowlife.

He actually stole through fraud over $1000

AUTHOR: Mr. J - (United States)

POSTED: Wednesday, December 06, 2023

 He was given a perfectly working bike. To his own testimony 'had the clutch box off 3 times’ trying to figure out how to correctly fit. Not only does the bike not stop, it won’t even go in neutral so you need the brake which shuts the bike off than you’re stuck and stranded. This scumbag has stolen by way of fraud (2) firearms brand new serial numbers: Rough N Rowdy (2 shot) Serial 355746 Warthog (semi auto shotgun) 20-17303 Imagine getting ripped off two guns for some loser to destroy your awesome motorcycle and cause severe injury. He just blocked, doesn’t care he’s a thief , delete Facebook review. Well he can’t delete this., No mechanic training or registration , no registered business not even anything done correctly even ripping off the government. Only reason I used the bum was Kawasaki doesn’t have a dealer in the county. Found a shop that could have did it. He is a riders nightmare! Indeed he brags 'I make sooo much money’ ripping people off! He sure was quick to pick it up, but after not to make it right. He’s an idiot, crooked and a thief!

Dangers of working with a backyard unlicensed 'mechanic’

AUTHOR: Ross Motorsports Mechanic - (United States)

POSTED: Tuesday, December 05, 2023

 Warning: Entrusting your bike to a slowly advancing, perilous setup by an unlicensed part-time backyard mechanic in Texas is a recipe for disaster. Not only are these mechanics untrustworthy, but Texas law mandates that they provide estimates, a rule this alleged con man conveniently ignores. Instead, he preys on owners, demanding a blank check and refusing to provide an estimate, leaving you vulnerable to arbitrary, inflated charges. Pay up, or risk having your ride stolen. Charging $350 for a clutch installation, double the standard rate, is appalling. This backyard mechanic installed a performance clutch incorrectly, advising the rider to "wear it in," a nonsensical directive for a motorcycle that can't stop – a guaranteed path to catastrophe. Check his Facebook page for a clear display of greed over customer satisfaction, exemplified by his motto "mak'in that money!" This 'slim' is undeniably shady; henceforth, he's aptly dubbed 'Slim Shady.' Don't jeopardize your bike and life with this unethical, overcharging, undereducated, unlicensed backyard mechanic.
