Just a warning to anyone who orders from speedsupplies.com:
I had 8 O-rings & 4 screws sent from the US with USPS Priority Mail International) : $54.00, so when it was sent I was expecting (and told) it would be 5 days .....well after 4 unanswered emails, 2 phone calls and finally a threatening email he answered he had sent it but postage was slow sometimes - 3 weeks later it finally arrived sent cheapest postage box possible that cost $5 and yet charged me $54 disapointing.
His customer service is sh**t and he lies, so be warned if you order from him
(Suzuki were going to take 5 weeks to get)
Egos; everyone got one

well I had a good ***** to the owner and to his credit he has refunded me $38 postage so I guess thats something - now if he can just work on his customer service he will be a good supplier :)

I buy quite a bit over the net and never had any issues with overseas(US, Germany, GB, Italy) suppliers - touch wood  . The local Australian ones on the other hand could learn a lot from them. Just recently ordered the winscreen for my busa from Bike Gear Warehouse in NSW. Three weeks later - still no goods, no message, nothing. After I sent them an e-mail asking what the f*%ck is going on, got a replay that they do not have any and MAYBE (!) some will arrive towards the end of March. Mind you, the order was placed on 29 of January and my credit card was charged instantly. I contacted the supplier in US - Hot Bodies Racing (the very same the BGW gets them from!) and they said that I will have it within a week of placing the order. So I cancelled the order with the cretins, asked for the money to be credited back within 24 hours and treathened them with the fraud squad. They returned the money but nothing more. Not a word of apology, kiss my ass, nothing.
The Aeroshop Australia - fuel funnels the same. Four weeks waiting period. BikerBoy warned me that he was waiting 2 weeks for his  Obviously they improving the service  This is not to say at all that all the local guys are crap. There are many who are very reliable and provide an excellent service. Just my experience tells me: if you want your gear quick - get it direct.

No money changed hands, lucky for me.
At least they are pretty consistent with their customer service /orders
approach.
I would hate to think that they discriminated against me.
I did email them and phoned them to tell them what I thought of them.
Quite pointless really,however the matter should not be swept under the
Carpet.
I ended up with SCREAMING DEMON"S
slightly modified.
Great Mufflers!
Great Service!

We can send you a Zero Gravity screen from stock.
Not slagging Hotbodies. but ZG is better fit, crisper seams.
Like any supplier, from time to time we can screw up, but hope we would do something to make it right.
