Ordered a a pile of stuff early in the year and still has not arrived assured me he sent it over 2 months ago still no sign of the stuff. To make matters worse sent me an email asking how the stuff was only the other day. Curly

Is it way too small? A bit of work with the heat gun or hot water could soften it enough to fit if it's close. Maybe some rubber friendly grease as well.

That your helmet was still at the painters. Apparently the bloke that does them is in high demand.

Is there anyone else having problems with this "Back In The Day" living legend in the states.
He doesn't seem to follow his own time frame.

Hi All
He is a little shifty. Order and paid for a rear spring and bits in August last year, had no reply by October. Followed up in November and he indicated that he sent it. Promised to re-send AT HIS COST and have it tracked at his expense. Received at the end of February and post dated 7th Feb 2011.

Happy with the parts but not so happy with service. Would only order if really had too.

Thanks Peter,
                  I have ordered and paid for a complete motor and assorted parts that were meant to leave the U.S at the end of April so I
had them in time for CD8. Since then he has given me the run around on delivery times. 3 dates promised, 3 dates passed!!
Pissed Off!!
