I came to him with a question on my R1200GS and he took the time to explain BMW suspension to me and make a recommendation. Ted didn't try and upsell me on things that I didn't need right away. Working with Ted's Beemershop redefines customer service. My buddy and I both have 2011 BMW F650GS, and we wanted to upgrade the suspension so as to handle a bit more aggressive trail riding, as well as handle heavy panniers on BDR trips.

Always a pleasure doing business with Ted & his crew. This time, I added a Tractive rear shock to my BMW R1200RT and it's wonderful. Super easy install and she rides much smoother with better control than the OE shock. Thanks to Ted's precision setup for my weight, riding style, baggage weight, passenger weight etc., I now have a perfectly balanced Beemer on the highway and the mountain curves.
Thank you for the top-notch service and products!

Just wow!! In my preparations for one of my longest solo motorcycle rides on my BMW F 800 GT I did an exhaustive search for the most comprehensive Motorcycle tool kit I could find. My search lead me to the Beamer shop and the Moto Hansa ProSeries tool kit. Not cheap At $225 bucks but clearly one of the nicest and functional motorcycle tool kits I've ever seen. The only problem was this wasn't coming from Amazon with two day free delivery it was being shipped by the Beamer shop and I needed it by the end of the week. One quick call to the Beamer shop, they identified my order and it

Since I live close by, I've been coming here for a couple years for oil and other parts as an alternative to the dealership in San Jose. Since learning about how the factory shocks on my 2010 R1200RT reach the end of their service life at around 35k miles I've considered replacement alternatives quite often. However, the cost of replacement suspension made it easy to postpone. Of course, every time I went into the shop I would see a myriad of shocks and suspension components hanging on the walls and in boxes on the floor ready to be shipped to customers around the world. Literally, they

My email feedback to Ted and his team at the BeemerShop below:
-------
Ted!!
Just wanted to say a huge thanks and provide feedback after thrashing the TFX front and rear kit on my BMW R1200 GSA - awesome!!!! On road I notice the biggest improvements on rough pavement and aggressive cornering, off-road the difference is astounding. Mind blowing even. I had no idea I was bottoming out the front end so much on the stockers and taking a real beating because of it. The front end just absorbs and floats over everything I throw at it now, riding confidence level hugely improved.

I cannot say enough good things about Ted and his shop. I purchased a pair of shocks for my old airhead two years ago and got great customer service. Ted took time to learn about my bike, my riding style, the type of riding I planed to to, etc to make sure I ended up with the best shocks and springs for my specific bike.
It took mer a while to get the bike in question on the road, and by the time I was able to actually put some miles on it two years had passed since I'd originally purchased the shocks. After some riding time, the shocks just seemed too stiff. The bike is pretty far from

If you own a BMW, and you live anywhere near Scott's Valley, then you need to know about the Beemer Shop. I've got a 2015 BMW GS Adventure, and was experiencing some handling problems where the front would "chatter" through turns, and it was impossible to have confidence in the bike.
Ted Porter (The Owner) is one of the US's leading experts on Motorcycle suspension, and he has relationships with all of the major manufacturers. I spoke to Ted and he knew immediately what the problem was, and he recommended that we install the Touratech rear shock, with a much heavier spring

I just had one of the best customer experiences of my Moto life at the Beemer Shop with Ted and his staff. I was in Baja on my r1200GS when I began to nice a leak in the rear shock... I already knew the stock shocks were not ideal for the riding I was doing but it's all I had... Knowing I was going to be passing through Scotts Valley I contacted the shop to see about a new shock setup for my bike. Ted and the staff were very fast to respond, offered some great suggestions and after going back and forth through email set an appointment. I arrived at 9am sharp and was met by Jeff (service

I went to see ted for an emergency fix on my r65/5 on a black friday. he was incredibly helpful, he came out of the shop, helped diagnostic the issue, provided me with wrench and screwdriver, opened the tacometer, brought the bmw manual and ultimately helped me fix the issue.
without him i would have had to rent a u haul and drive back my motorcycle to san francisco. oh and when we asked him how much we owe him he refused to charge us. thanks ted, you saved the day!

I literally saved over $2000 on a rear strut for my BMW RT. That included sending my old shock out to California to get the new one installed on the spring. The new Wilbers shock gives me a superior ride compared to the oem shock that went bad on my bike. Service was outstanding, if I lived in California I'd exclusively use this shop for my bike. I have a 2011 BMW R 1200RT.

I purchased a customized OEM to Wilburs ESA conversion, then had them install it on my 2010 r1200 bike. Here are my impressions:
1. Ted did a very thorough job of screening my typical load and riding style, in order to match me with the appropriate springs.
2. The Service Adviser, Stephen, is very professional, friendly, well mannered, pleasant, easy to work with and honest. He coordinated my in person installation, and provided me regular updates, which I appreciated.

Nothing but professional, outstanding service from Ted and the guys in the shop. I have had them do a standard 6k service on my f650 as well as a full engine case opening to replace an output shaft bearing. I have had it back together for over 2000 miles and it runs perfectly. Can't say enough positive things about these guys.

When the transmission on my '88 R100GS stopped shifting, Ted personally brought a trailer to Capitola and hauled my bike to his shop, for a very reasonable price. The work they did on my transmission was top-notch. Yes, it cost a lot, but it would cost as much or more at a dealership. They are very friendly and professional at the Beemer Shop. The bike is going back in in a couple of weeks for odometer repair. I'm glad I found this shop.

I wanted new shocks for my R1200GS and sent Ted Porter an email asking the usual questions.
I build custom bicycle frames and restore old airplanes and wanted guidance from someone who loves machines and making them better like i do.
I couldn't have found a better person to help me than Ted.
He spent lots of time on the phone with me helping me sort out my options.
I ended up with a set of Yacugar shocks that made a remarkable improvement in an already great bike.
A great guy to do business with.
Thank you.

The BeemerShop is known far and wide as the place to go so I gave them a call about upgrading the shocks on my 2011 GSA. Ted spent about 15 minutes with me educating me on what the shocks do, how they're made, how they can help, which one is right for me, etc... After a few thousand miles of some rough off roading, I had one shock start to leak and the BeemerShop fixed it and turned it around within a week (free). About two years later I sent them back again for a re-build (standard service interval) and again got a quick turnaround and found one of them was covered under warranty. Very

Well about 5 months ago I was introduced to the BMW world by obtaining my beloved 2006 R1200RT. I got a great deal on a used one that happened to have a couple of small problems. The main issue is that my front brake was constantly dragging, though the bike was still rideable. The other was that the bike was a little too high for me to manage. After some research I came upon Ted's Beemershop and called them and ended up having a nice conversation with Ted, who appeared to be a BMW enthusiast and was very willing to discuss potential issues and give advice. So I signed right up and scheduled

Owning a Beemer is not cheap but the cheapest way to own it is to maintain it rather than fix it all the time. These guys specialize in the bikes and are well worth the ride. They are honest, polite, and fair.
I went in for an oil change and I ended up spending more money, time away from the bike, and getting more done on it than expected. I couldn't be more pleased. She rides like a dream and feels brand new. I feel so much safer on a bike that is taken care of and performs well.
There is a much more pleasant environment and friendlier feel here

I agree with the previous review - just say no to dealerships. Ted & his team are great - very helpful and clear in explaining what work needs to be done right away or what work can wait.
I should also mention that their pricing is fair. Even though they're located an hour from me, I won't be taking my bike anywhere else.
