I needed two fork seals for the TL, so I ordered from them on Monday over the phone.

"Don't worry, we have them in stock, they'll be with you by Wednesday"

Come Tuesday, I have an invoice for them in the post, and they charge me for them. No seals. Oh well, bikes booked in on Wednesday they'll be here then.

Wednesday. No seals. No answer when trying to call them at between 2-4pm Thumbs Down

Thursday. No seals. Answered by some idiot at 4pm, who found it laughable that I asked if they offered a next day delivery service. He wouldn't accept that they might not have been posted, or got lost in the post, and said ring back next week if they havn't come. When I told him I had the bike booked in first on Wednesday, then on Thursday to have them changed, he said that wasn't thier problem.

Friday. Bike booked in again, no seals in the post. Gonna speak to them in a bit.Shitty people.

So. Moral of the story, don't buy from these wankers.

However... the shop I have been having the work booked at, have been very helpful, and have told me they'll get some Genuine Suzuki ones for early next week Thumbs Up Shop is called Maximum Throttle and they're in Fleet in Hampshire. Smile


Still says that naughty word though don't it?

If they are that touchy about something as daft as this, I for one shall not be ordering parts off them.

Sorry, but threatening someone with court action because they voiced their opinion is just wrong.

So Middle Finger to gear4bikes

Are you by any chance affiliated with the site you are promoting above?

If you are, feel free to request it is added to the Links section and make a separate post in the Exchange and Mart forum.
However it is not considered good etiquette to try and advertise 'rival' products in someones for sale thread as you have done in the Exchange and Mart section, thus I have rated your posts 'Spam'. Also, if you'd bothered to read a few posts you would have seen that we are a predominantly UK based forum, so you're unlikely to get many customers when you advertise a US based site.

Old Thread Alert!

The last post was made 20 years, 52 days ago. Instead of replying here, would creating a new thread be more useful?
