I hate bike bandit.

[ajgs500]

Maybe it is just me but it seems like bikebandit takes forever to send you your order.  Does/has anyone else had this problem??  I ordered my stuff over a week ago and they haven't even shipped it yet. :guns:  :guns:  :guns:  :guns:   Is there a better internet store out there or are they all like that?  Any suggestions???

you know what it is....they don't have anything for the GS so they order it from Suzuki. It's the same price as if you went to a dealership. But yeah I ordered a new side-stand and a new front caliper and it took like 3 or 4 weeks. LAME!!!

I've had good enough service from BBandit, but have switched to MRCycles to keep my money closer to home. Besides their prices are usually lower than the others. Significantly lower.

On the other hand, the BBandit stickers are kinda cool.

I use JT Motorsports..... CLICKY

shipping still takes a little while, as they have to wait for the parts to get to them, then they ship to you.....but there shipping prices are extremely reasonable.....

Well that is just annoying.


Yeah, I ordered new mirrors from Bike Bandit and I A) wrote off my purchase price as lost; and B) assumed they were never coming and resigned myself to get mirrors elsewhere.  

Then they finally came.  They came in a big box with a dead albatros in it.  

Nice!

fastest way is to call your local dealer with part numbers in hand, we order directly from suzuki/yamaha/kawasaki/honda pretty fast also...

I would but they a$$f*** you with the price which is cool if you are into that sort of thing and they are complete jerks

true....but my dealer charges TRIPLE for parts....I've paid $40 (shipping incl) for parts on line that my local stealer wanted $130 for....plus my dealer charges me shipping, usually more then an online store.....plus tax....

[ajgs500]

ya what mastrind said

['04gs500f]

yeah where i work they charge 100% more than cost, but even our cost is extremely high in my opinion, really the ripoff starts with manufacturers, think about it, we sell our hondas suzukis yamahas kawasakis nearly at cost.... the manufacturers make their money off replacement parts... expecially at the rate that squids destroy their bikes... Barney's lives off of part sales and service, the only thing bike sales does is pay the salesmen...
