Well...I spoke too soon.

I received the parts today and to say the least, I'm not happy with the finish. I wouldn't put these parts on my bike so I wouldn't feel comfortable or expect any of you to put them on yours. Words can't describe how disappointed I am right now about this! I'm going to give them back to be reworked. I'm hoping (and will push) that this will only delay us by a few more days but I'm just not certain right now. As always, I will keep you posted on here.
[sad]

My apologies...
 
Good on you, I know if I had another set coming my way and the coating was jack I would be pissed, so I am sure everyone would rather wait a couple extra days to get the quality than rush it and settle for second rate.
 
You're honest guy and you keep us up the date with what's going on so it's all good. The delays aren't your fault anyways so what can you do about it? World's not perfect and sh!t happens.
Like I said before 50Dro - no worries.
 
I have no problem with the delay. Was/is it an anodizing problem or the finish from machining that's not up too par?

~Mike.......
 
Mainly anodizing but there were a few with surface finish imperfections that can and will be addressed.
 
Went back to the vendor to be reworked today. Will probably be a few days but they'll be "right!" Thanks for hanging in there guys!
 
Got the email from FedEx... Hell yeah!!! Estimated delivery Dec. 02 2010 :D
Thanks 50Dro!

Yeah...I heard those emails went out today. That estimate is definitely not going to happen although the tracking numbers will remain the same. All of your boxes are labeled (hence the email) and sitting ready in my garage for the parts to come back to me from the anodizer. I'm optimistic that will happen this week yet but as always I will keep you all posted.

Much appreciation for your patience!

PS - Still have 4 1125 sets that need a home! XB's are spoken for at this time, but I will certainly post them up if there are extras for any reason.
 
What a tease! Like I said before delays aren't your fault and it's cool with me, I'm in no rush. Bike is parked in the garage for the winter anyways.
 
Trust me man...I'd rather those boxes be in the trash after you guys having installed the sliders;) Soon, very soon...
 
Update: Parts to arrive (to me) Wednesday[mad]

Parts are being stripped of the anodization, touched up, and reanodized. As I said before, they WILL be "right" this time. Let me know if you have any questions. Thanks!
 
hey dro... just paid attention to this thread. do you still have sets for the 1125CR and would you post to sydney australia? how much?
