I chose him because he does have good reviews online, but honestly, I didn't get that feeling when I walked in.

I'm not opposed to spending money on my bike, but I want to feel like you actually care, know what you're doing, but aren't trying to nickel and dime me.

I have a lot to learn about bikes without a doubt. Definitely still getting acclimated.

My reasons for concern was him just saying:
"Your bike is about to blow up" Why? Who knows. What's going to happen exactly? Then a bs response.
"We can do a tune up and it'll be like new again," but then he doesn't itemize.
"We can do an oil change" Um I already did the oil change my self.
"Did you change the oil filter?" yes
"Ok we can skip that" Um yeah ok what else are we gonna do?
Continues texting someone while carrying on conversation with me.
"I can't answer any of your questions unless I actually look and do the tuneup?"
"If you're bike gets stolen or anything happens while it's here, we're not responsible"

Who knows? Maybe he's just straight up and doesn't want to offer potential answers for fear of being wrong.

I'm feeling like my best bet is to shop around a bit and not ride for a while until I can feel more trust with a mechanic to better explain.
