Has anyone used Mad Max Motorcycles in Florida? I'm considering buying a bike from there, but the site looks a little suspect. They have an "add to cart" feature and offer to ship anywhere in the US for $599, which is super cheap. I called and got a voice mail. Hopefully I can actually speak to someone there and put my reservations to rest. Unless of course anyone here has experience they want to share. Thanks everyone.
Guys, this is the owner. This thread was brought to my attention by a customer who actually bought a bike. It's amazing how ahead of their skis everyone can get without proper info. Just call and ask a question if you're actually interested in buying a bike and you'll always get an answer or a call back. In regards to the shipping, Haul Bikes/Daily Direct will ship nationwide flat rate for 600 bucks through our dealer account. It may be a little more if you contact them privately. Doesn't matter if it's 100 miles or 3000 miles. Obviously not worth it if your shipping within your state but for long distances they are great. They are slow but hands down the most inexpensive option. As for the fellow who mentioned being pressured for his license...you asked for a buyers order on a bike. You asked the out the door price and we gave it to you. We don't need to take the time to fill out a buyers order without your info just to give you the price. You had the price. That makes no sense. If you want a legitimate buyers order then yes, we do need your info to fill it out. As for the location, we are in downtown and open by appointment only as it says online and in all of our listings. We basically wholesale to the public and by not spending on superficial things such as outdoor facade and high pressure sales guys, we keep the cost down and pass the savings on to our customers. We don't sell parts, we don't do apparel, it's just domestic cruisers (Harley/Indian) with a very thin markup from what we acquire then for. Feel free to send any other reasonable questions my way and I will be happy to answer as best I can.
After looking at the site, I see why you are suspicious. I would be too. Unless they call back and you can see the bike in person before buying, I would run away. I would also ask for the VIN and run it through the DMV before purchase.
Here is a close up pic from Gargle earth......taken Jan 2023......
NO sign.......looks like some bikes in there....
Wouldn't trust it............no matter how much.......
I notice some are so quick to buy a very expensive motorcycle then go cheap on some aspects. There's no way a motorcycle can be shipped 3000 miles from FL to CA for only $599. I wouldn't waste my money on a deal that sounds too good to be true.
Some years back, I was gonna be in Florida and perused some different sources for used bikes. I found a couple bikes that really interested me, low milage and good prices… when I saw them in person, I realized the salt air was having its way with every surface from the paint to the chrome right down to the fasteners.
I sure wouldn’t buy, even a late model low mileage bike, from Florida without seeing it up close.
I actually contacted them with caution of course. I too am leary when it seems too good to be true, but I was curious. Funny thing is they kept trying to get my driver's license. I was just asking about the bike, shipping etc., but they wanted my driver's license. Yeah right!
Hopefully nobody gets scammed. Unbelievable the lengths people go to screw others.
