My name is James, I am a proud veteran that has have been an avid motorcycle rider for over 50 years. This is my experience with CENTRAL FLORIDA POWERSPORTS. PLEASE NOTE I am not taking issue with the sold as is part. I AM TAKING ISSUE WITH THE BLANTANT MISREPRESENTATION OF THE TRIKE.
I was in the market to purchase a trike. I found a model that fit my budget and fell in love with it. The trike was a 2001 Harley Davidson Electra-Glide. I let them know that I am a serious buyer and ready to purchase today. The salesperson was Jesus R. Everyone was very friendly to me as they knew I was a prepared buyer not needing financing and ready to purchase out right. Here are some of the informational bullet points made to me by the salesman. Of which formed my decision to go forward on the purchase.
The trike was fully inspected, and road tested by a CERTIFIED HARLEY DAVIDSON MECHANIC
The trike was stated to me as their advertisement states Very well taken care of and ready to ride
I purchased my new to me Harley on 08/28/19. I couldn t wait to take it on a cross country trip where the wife and I were planning to take some much-needed RR. The staff wished me a wonderful night and invited me to tell all my friends about the great experience I was having. I really was on cloud 9 with my ready to ride trike. Here are the following bullet points of my experience going home.
Within 10-15 miles I noticed stiff and hard shifting of the transmission
Drove it home and gave it a lot of thought. Do I return the trike to CENTRAL FLORIDA POWERSPORTS? They did state it was READY TO RIDE (PLEASE SEE PICTURE OF THIER AD) or do I take it to The Motorcycle Clinic. They have been working on all my Harley Davidson s for over a decade and they have been in business for over 46 years I wanted an honest breakdown of what was happening to my trike and this was a no brainer for me. The Motorcycle Clinic was my clear choice.
09/06/19 dropped off my bike to Clinic
Advised the sales manager Mansor of my decision and as to why I made the choice of not bringing the trike back to them. I have lost all confidence of Central Florida Powersports.
09/20/19 The Motorcycle Clinic called me for an update. They found metal shavings on the transmission dip stick.
They found the trike transmission had a tooth broken off causing damage to other gears and components
Transmission rebuild is needed (in only 10-15 miles of riding)
The Motorcycle Clinic completed a courtesy safety check before my trip
It was found that the trike had both shocks blown out requiring replacement, both my cv joint boots have blown out having grease all over rear end area requiring replacement
Total in repairs are $5,742.49! (For a Ready to Ride Trike)

I met with Mansor (sales manager) before finding out about the rear end problems. I shared with him my initial estimate of approx. $4067.49. He only offered 500.00. This was laughable. I will be sharing my experience to every review outlet I can find to let people know the business practices they have at Central Florida Power Sports.

The president of Central Florida Powersports is named, Jamison R Daniels. I have not heard anything from him either. I did send an e-mail to Jason which is V.P. asking to review my experience with Mr. Daniels.
