My apologies

I see them...I think...

[landricscustoms]

I want to be sure you read my post quoted above. I acknowledge both of the things you point out...

Agreed Jay. Just wanted to make sure it was out there. And again. When ever you want man.

I reached out to Rich to do my heavily damaged TLR gas tank when I bought the bike in October 2013. Having seen the quality of his work, the price he quoted me, and the timeframe to completion offered(3-4 weeks) I trusted him with the work. He came to my place to pick up the tank, I gave 50% payment up front and trusted the work would get done.

As the bike was being torn down for the winter getting the tank back right away wasn't a big priority. I'd say it was maybe 8-10 weeks before I started reaching out asking about the progress. Responses of "I'm shooting for next week" to which I would simply reply "ok" and leave it at that. Rinse and repeat a few weeks in a row and the concern started to grow, especially as all other aspects of the bike rebuild were nearing completion. It then reached a point where my inquiries would go unanswered. Frustration mounted and I eventually got to a point where I wanted the tank back, finished or not so that if need be I could source another shop to finish it. Also ended up reaching out to a mutual friend to try to put some pressure on it as well, not sure if it ended up helping or not but all said and done I got the tank back mid March. 5 months later. And while the bodywork piece(dent removal) came out perfect, the lower blue stripes aren't an exact match. Most can't notice it but I can and it still bothers me. Rich offered to take the tank back and blend it but I declined as riding season was just about to get going and I didn't want to be bikeless throughout the summer.

Rich seems like a nice guy and yes, over the time he had my tank had some legitimate bad luck/timing shit happen but the communication and business practice as a whole needs drastic improvement. A 5 month wait for a gas tank repair job is simply unreasonable in my book, especially when originally quoted 3 weeks.

Jackie, I hope you and Paul can get the parts back soon. I wish I could say this was out of the ordinary and it should be squared away soon, based on my experience and the experiences I've heard from others it's really a crap shoot. Best of luck.

You have to admit Johnny... aint too many that could fix that tank as well as I did.... and we discussed the fact that the blue may need blending Prior to the jobs start.. and I told you I could blend that blue stripe while you waited. In just an hour or so.

I have to give Richie props. Even thou he can sometimes be hard to get a hold of, he really took care of me this past week. He did a rush job on my race uppers and even drove up to the track this morning to deliver to me for todays races. And an excellent job on them of course. Thanks Richie.

Rich has my car now. I've found Rich's response speed to be highly impressive, like typically within minutes every time. He's been great about taking care of my current project and sticking to his word about quality and dead lines. Sounds like he has his issues fixed since the problems you guys have had. I'm sure he'll do right by you if you give him the chance. I'd be frustrated and upset about the events posted in this thread if they were to have happened to me, but from my experience so far with him in my recent transaction, he's been a pleasure to do business with.

Lets say my experience was somewhat like yours except on bigger scale $$$ paid more than 80% of the quoted price. The job bearly got started and what did get done was done poorly. After months of excuses i decided to pull it out of there. I really don't want to continue here.. pm me if you would like.

[kb1]

No offense, but if I gave the same excuses to my boss that you are to your customers, I would have been fired years ago. This stuff drives me nuts.

I'll take pictures this weekend of what the paint looks like now - some has quite literally fallen off. Never mind the weather stripping that was installed incorrectly and won't let the windows go all the way up unless I open the door while bringing them up. Or how if it's going to be out in the rain or getting washed, I have to run tape over the entirety of the side windows so rain doesn't get in.

Why the fuck would anyone expect someone to return to them if they couldn't get it right the first time? No fuckin' way, not a chance.

[boosten lebaron]

Is he back at it? I thought he was long gone. He would lock himself in his shop so people couldn't get ahold of him and I can't imagine he is still doing that. I seem to remember the shop getting torn down about 5 years ago.

[Stoneman]

His site is still up and his FB page has been updated recently.

why did my comment get deleted? i wasnt promoting the business or breaking forum rules.

Thread OP was a plug for him. Thread gets removed = all subcomments get removed.

Not going to lie, after being one of the only two riders at NEMRR at the start of the season with 'legal' bellypans, I'm curious to see what his theoretical setup looked like. Mine was an ugly hack, literally bolting a baking pan to the OEM plastic skidplate, Lee had a better one that he glassed up himself based on the same skid plate and a chinese food container.

I can tell you that a one of the only positive posts in this thread was not updated as the outcome was not so much positive.
