that website is one of the worst , if your goal is to find products you can use and purchase.

Careful. I ordered almost 400 dollars (CAD) a year ago and it took a month to get shipped out.

I'd try P3 or Pro Carbon next.

Also, I dont like how rigid the skid plates are. They are hard attached to the bottom of the frame and actually reduce the flex of the frame believe it or not.

We ended up using zip ties to strap it in.

So true unfortunately. I have a 500 ish dollar order pending and haven't heard anything in over 2 weeks since placing it.

I'm pretty sure many of these carbon guys are slammed and dealing with shipping insanity...from receiving materials to getting product shipped & 'who' to ship it with.

For the Canadians, I believe Legacy Carbon is on your side of the border?

I shipped a pipe to Donk in Ontario: Shipped it July 16th from Northern California...arrived in Ontario yesterday.

Yeah I waited months for kx125 parts from them. I would call them and ask on availability in the future.

Amaradio doesn't need consumer business, I wonder why they even offer their stuff to the public. I can assure you that they don't care about the retail customer.

I ordered a fuel pump guard from them a year and a half ago... maybe even two years ago now? It never showed up, I've never been able to get ahold of them, and I never even received a confirmation of the order. The charge went through on the card right away, though.

They were also impossible to get ahold for the people in parts at the dealership I used to work at and we eventually gave up trying to make a connection.

All that to say, I'd look at other carbon companies or buy them through a seller who actually has the product in stock and will make sure it ends up in your hands.

I've heard the horror stories as well, but never had an issue getting parts. Have ordered pegs, CR 2T clutch/ignition covers, and glide plates for many different bikes. Always used their eBay store as it's some recourse in the event of a no-show, but never had that experience. They still build some quality pieces and I'm glad they brought back many of the trick bits for 2T's!
