What we do

Two things, done right.

No bloated service menu. We keep your machine running and we bolt on the upgrades that make it yours — and we do both well.

01 / Service

ATV / UTV Repair

Broke down, won't start, or just not feeling right? Bring it in. From no-start diagnostics to clutch rebuilds, axles, A-arms, brakes, and electrical gremlins — we find what's actually wrong and fix it, without the dealership runaround or the dealership wait.

02 / Upgrades

Aftermarket Accessory Installs

Got a box of parts and no time — or no desire — to fight with them? We mount it right the first time: light bars, winches, audio, lift kits, wheels and tires, roofs, windshields, doors, bumpers, and just about anything else you've got on the bench.

Why Black Ridge

Local shop. Real answers. No runaround.

You talk to the wrench

Owner-run means the person who diagnoses your machine is the person who fixes it. No service writers, no telephone game, no "we'll have to check with the tech."

Honest, up-front quotes

You hear what's wrong and what it costs before we touch a bolt. Approve the work first — no surprise line items waiting for you at pickup.

Built for how you ride

We're off-road people too. Your machine goes back to you trail-ready and dialed in — not just "good enough to get it out the door."

What riders are saying

Five stars, earned one machine at a time.

Vaughn came and grabbed my UTV for a brake switch replacement. Thought it'd be a couple days. No joke, he called me less than an hour later and brought it back purring like a kitten. And the kicker? Charged half of his initial estimate. Fantastic businessman? Absolutely! Thanks Vaughn.

Vaughn fixed several issues with my Polaris Sportsman 450. Not only is he an incredibly skilled mechanic, he is one of the most honest and hard working fellas I've met in a long time. His prices are more than fair, especially considering the quality of his work. He kept me in the loop the entire process and even changed the oil without me asking. Great guy!

I highly recommend Vaughn at Black Ridge Powersports. He picked up the mower, serviced it and returned it the same day. This little John Deere runs great now. The receipt reflected everything he did. Vaughn is very personable and professional. You won't be disappointed. He will be my go-to from now on.

Straight answers

Questions we get every week.

What are your hours, and do I need an appointment?
Monday to Friday 9am to 6pm, Saturday 9am to 5pm, closed Sunday. Call or text 816-837-9220 ahead so we can plan the drop-off or pickup; walk-ins are welcome, but scheduled work goes first.
How long does a repair usually take?
Typically one to two weeks from drop-off to pickup, depending on parts and what we find once it is open. You get a call with the diagnosis and the price before any work starts, so you always know where your machine is in the line.
Is the work warrantied?
Yes. There is a three-month warranty on the parts we work on. If something we touched fails inside that window, bring it back and we make it right.
Do you work on golf carts, and what does a lithium conversion cost?
Yes. We repair and service golf carts and convert lead-acid carts to lithium. A lithium conversion runs $2,500 for a 36-volt cart and $3,000 for a 48-volt cart (September 2026 pricing, confirmed when you book), with the same three-month warranty on the parts we work on. Johnson County golf cart service: Leawood, Lenexa, Overland Park, Olathe, and Shawnee.
Do you pick up and deliver?
Yes. Pickup and delivery is free in Kearney. We serve the Northland and the Kansas City metro as well; call or text and we will sort out the details for your area.
Which machines and brands do you work on?
ATVs and side-by-sides from Polaris, Can-Am, Honda, Yamaha, Kawasaki, CFMOTO, Kubota, Suzuki and more, plus golf carts. If it runs the trail, we will work on it. We do not do lawn mowers or small engines.
Are you a dealer?
No. Black Ridge is an independent, owner-run repair and accessory install shop. We do not sell machines, and the person you talk to is the person doing the work.
How does the quote work?
You hear what is wrong and what it costs before we touch a bolt. You approve the work first; there are no surprise line items waiting at pickup.
