| Re: Solomoto I opened up my email yesterday and had twenty-four identical email's from them saying something like: "You have created an account but haven't ordered anything yet. Is there something we can help you find?" I emailed them about it. They said it was a "glitch" they are working on.

| Re: Solomoto My local shop always asks "How much did you pay for that?" and when I tell them they say "We pay more than that!" piss on that! I would rather wait for shipping than to pay 30-50% more. I went out of town to buy my bike over $150 that they wouldn't come down to match. so I took a 50 mi. trip to San Luis Motorsports and picked my bike up. my friend who drove just wanted breakfast at Denny's so 20 bucks and 50 miles later I have my RR. |

| Re: Solomoto no, i mean your local shop...not dealer. like the guy that says..."Hey Cliff, what would you like to order today? I can get XXXXXXX and XXXXXXX to ya for cost!" So I say, "Where do I swipe?" i say this, but today I unwrapped a big box of stuff from Denniskirk.com's outlet store! (Icon Mainframe Helmet - $52.50, Teknic Knox CE Safety Suit - $59.99, Bridgestone Racing NSR50/Scooter Tire - $38.39) So I definately mail order a lot of stuff. |

| Re: Solomoto heres an email i got a day after ordering online from Cal-Sportbike Customs: Good afternoon, The next crate of Speedo Healers is due here in a few more business days. At that time we will bill your credit card and ship your order per your requested shipping method. Remember: we will not bill your card until your order ships.Thank you for your order! ...it would have been nice if they had an "out of stock" warning |

| Re: Solomoto Its been happening more and more lately. Kneedraggers has done that to me the last 4 orders I have had from them. Takes over 2 weeks to get stuff now, when I used to get stuff sometimes as little as 2 days. Makes planning repairs and upgrade days a pain in the ass. As for local shops, unfortunately with exception to solomotoparts being by me the rest arent even in the ballpark for the prices I get online. I tried several times and wound up ordering online after wasting a day looking. |

| Re: Solomoto Most places don't carry very much stock they are just middle men. Large inventories cost too much money. |
