Lightspeed is, technically, my "competiton". I tell people all damn day,"They sell really great stuff for prices that're way below what you should be paying!" They sell direct replacement parts like the chain guide shown above for less than the dealer cost of some other parts from other companies that are A LOT like it.

$57 for that chain-guide bracket is a bargain.

Go get the new plastic rub-block and be happy.

Btw, we'll have something available soon for the new Japanese 450s and the wholesale price will be waaaaay more than $57! Here's a quick phone-pic of the 2018 RMZ part that'll retail for about $199 with a rub-block.



So, in closing, call'em back and apologize.
What's your company name? Website?

Thanks.

if one is gonna trash a company online...might want to re-think, re-read and then re-think again before you send.

you best have every angle covered because your fuckin with peoples livelyhoods. Some deserve it tho....but its best to exhaust all other options before boldly just attempting to trash someone online.

this comes to mind...

I was just pissed since ive been waiting for that part all week. We are all a community and I wont order from them again but I think they got the point since I called them. They do not make good products.
Instead of trashing Lightspeed who make great products for your mistake and re-editing your post over and over why don't you just delete the whole stupid thread ? In the right hand corner of your original post just hit the delete button and the whole thing will disappear Blush

Chain guide for $56.....that is cheap! Would never use a carbon guide personally but that is good value

Ps the rubber block never comes with the guide, it’s a separate consumable part (especially if you run an O-ring chain)

A lesser-known fact is that Lightspeed was once DSP, the source for the carbon and exhausts on Doug Henry's works bike. If it's good enough for Factory Yamaha, it's quality enough for you.

I believe the #4 bullet statement says, "reuses stock chain guide slider and mounting hardware to complete installation".
