But, they came through for me "BIG-TIME" and I promised to promote
them the best I could.

situation: I had a favorite pair of Spy Micro-Scoops in a kind of clear orange.
They had broken in a place I figured could be easily repaired.
I got online and found a phone # for them. I called them and found out that they do not have a repair facility and they only replaced broken or damaged wares.
Being that these shades were about 6 years old, they were WAY out of warranty. I explained how much I loved these shades and they were the only ones I found that fit well under my helmet. The nice lady told me she would look on their "dealer return" shelf to see if she could do anything for me.
She came back and said she had a white pair with black gradient lenses and a pair of blue with blue gradients. She then asked, "Which one would you like me to send you?". As I was stunned, I mumbled something to the effect that I would LOVE to buy both and how much. She again stated that she was going to send me, free of charge, my choice, but being that they were "returns" she would just send them both to me, free of charge.

It did take awhile to get them, 6 weeks. But, when I got them and checked them out, they were in nearly new condition. I mean, for free, I could deal with the "D" etched on the inside of the frame.

In contrast: The company with the big "O" as their logo, charged me $17 for a replacement set of nose pieces. AND the red didn't quite match. ]]> Aftermarket Perfomance Parts Reviews texasixes http://www.fireblades.org/forums/aftermarket-perfomance-parts-reviews/80379-spy-optics.html 4000 miles with the TaylorMade slip on http://www.fireblades.org/forums/aftermarket-perfomance-parts-reviews/80366-4000-miles-taylormade-slip.html Tue, 17 Nov 2009 20:31:55 GMT Well I've now done over 4000 miles on my 2009 UK Repsol ABS Blade with the taylor made fitted. I thought I'd share some personal opinons with you all

a) The exhaust is good quality and remains in a excellent condition with no visable signs of wear :)
b) The carbon trim has darked a little around the exhaust trim exit
c) The right hand swing arm is a light tinted brown from the exhaust gases at the rear of the swing arm :hmm:
d) The exhaust remains loud [IE 120DB] and deep and without a doubt requires the rider [IMHO] to wear ear plugs at ALL times when riding!:rolleyes:
e) Personally, I can't put up with it anymore on my daily 100 mile round trip to work so it's coming off over the winter to be replaced by a Yoshi R77
f) I'll be putting it on ebay after christmas when I get the R77 fitted
g) It is without doubt the nicest looking exhaust for the 2009 Fireblade. :thumb:

Note (b) and (c) can be resolved with some good polish and do not appear to be permanent

Hope this finds usefull to you all. :thumb:

Cheers

Problem is the right brake set doesn't have an exhaust bracket as I guess it was designed to be fitted with an after-market exhaust. Any ideas how I can get around this without either buying different rearsets or an A-M exhaust?
Thanks
