What shops got stock?


I need to pick up a few things and I'm getting kinda sick of calling around every shop in new england when I need parts to see if they have them. Half of the shops charge frieght too and they don't tell you that when you're ordering junk. I wanted to get a galfer brake kit, new lines and pads before friday. Does anyone know what shop might have them in stock, or where online I can order them to maybe get overnight or two day shipping?

Thanks kids

i have been going through the exact same thing...
no one seems to have shiite.

kneedraggers.com has the brake kits and sprockets i am looking for, but i am not sure if their prices are any good yet, so i am just riding the kwak as it is and i will look for parts over the winter.

kneedraggers has decent prices but they don't stock anything either. They have it shipped to them, then they ship it to you. Half the time what you order will be 'backordered' and it'll take forever to get it, they won't tell you that till they have your money though.

I ordered my SS Braided front/rear lines from http://www.cyclebrakes.com/

Got here quickly, and they even sent me out another banjo bolt when one snapped. It snapped at 10ftlbs

I'd use them again for sure! That was early in the season though, supplies may be different now.

They had everything I needed, prices were a little higher than the rest but oh well.

Yup, can't even count the number of times I've walked into some dealership and go the, "hmmmm, looks like we'll have to ORDER it..." line...

No STANDARD KAWI sportbike turnsignals in stock (at a Kawi sportbike dealership nonetheless), but if you happen to need a chrome rear seat bar for your harley, just take it off the wall.... : : :

Talk to Brian


Hey Jay and Brent,

If there is something you absolutely want on your bikes for Friday, get in touch with Brian and maybe he can work some magic and get the stuff for you. I would try to take care of it but I am in Atlantic City until late Friday so I wouldn't be much help. We do alot of buisness with the parts department at Plaistow Powersports in Plaistow NH and the parts manager can usually help us out on rush parts and such. Definitely go through Brian though, hopefully he wont mind my telling you guys to call him on this, dont just call there and expect miracles we have built a good relationship with them and if Brian calls and asks maybe they can help.

Good luck, have fun on Friday you bastards, wish I was going too.

L8R

Joel

someone else might though


I'm sure one of your roomates or friends could probably do a little wrenching for you if need be.

But I do understand the problem of finding time to work on your bike when work etc. calls. I can't even ride my damn bike this week and it is supposed to be beautiful all week. Oh well!

Glad they had them! I dont know about their 'regular' prices, the lines I got were on a group purchace, and their customer service was SUPERB. I've paid 10%+ just for piece of mind I was dealing with a legit place. I'll order from them again
