What a great business ! I was 1200 miles from home on my Vulcan cruiser and was having overheating issues coming up Raton pass . Found this shop on Google and pulled in .. service manager graciously looked at my issue and made some recommendations and allowed me to use an open bay to add fluid to my radiator which takes a little time and tools … his advice and effort helped my fix my issue and I was very grateful for the advice and help ! Totally awesome folks !
Installed Hester Elka shocks, Stage 3, today on my Cfmoto 2021 950. It feels like I bought a whole new machine. Unbelievable. Spoke with John Hester directly and he explained what the difference is between the different stages and what would work best for me. Shipping was amazingly fast! There are many places to buy parts from but extremely few who take the time with you and answer your questions regardless of what your shopping for. From $100 part to a 20k machine Hester's is top notch. If your a serious rider and want more out of your 950, you've got to get a set today!
I took my Yamaha vstar in 2023 to have it repaired. I had the money to fix it and they took my motorcycle to there shop and had it there forever and never repaired my bike. I was told they couldn't get parts and they told me that they only use certain vendors and being a automotive service manager in the past that's crap. I always and above and beyond for my customers and I EVEN BOUGHT MY BIKE FROM THEM. I know they don't sell Yamaha anymore and that's part of the problem and the worst part is that they left my bike in parts for me to take back home. COMPLETELY UNPROFESSIONAL AND THE SERVICE MANAGER HAD NO DESIRE TO REPAIR MY BIKE. I HAVE TOLD LOTS OF PEOPLE ABOUT MY STORY.
John and his crew do a great job. Very honest and knowledgeable. If you ever need any work done this is the place to do it.

Motorcycle Buyer's Guide – Hester's Motorsports
Buying a motorcycle from Hester's Motorsports in Raton, New Mexico? Follow this checklist before you commit.
- 1
Verify the title and VIN
Check the VIN on the frame, engine, and title to confirm they match. Run the VIN through a motorcycle history report. Hester's Motorsports should be able to provide documentation for any bike in their inventory.
- 2
Check the fork seals and bearings
Look for oil weeping down the fork tubes — a sign the seals need replacement. Grab the front wheel and push/pull firmly to check for play in the steering head bearings.
- 3
Inspect the chain and sprockets
A worn chain will have excess slack and the sprocket teeth will look hooked or pointed instead of rounded. Chain and sprocket replacement runs $200–$500. Factor that into your offer if it's needed.
- 4
Check tire age and tread depth
Look for the DOT date code on the sidewall — tires over five years old should be replaced regardless of tread. Tires are a safety item, not a cosmetic one.
- 5
Take a test ride
Confirm the clutch engages smoothly, the brakes feel firm, and the bike tracks straight at speed. Listen for valve noise, exhaust leaks, or electrical issues. A short test ride catches problems a visual inspection misses.
