    Xtreme Powersports

    Any one here ever buy from these people? I ordered some parts for a Virago I'm fixing up on April 24 and I've heard nothing so far, not even a confirmation eMail. At least the authorization has rolled off. I've sent them an eMail to cancel my order but I get the feeling I'm going to be charged for these parts long after I no longer need them.

    In the mean time Bike Bandit has gotten what I need back in stock and I've ordered from them...

          I suppose that's what I get for not asking first...

              I just looked up a few random parts, and the prices were almost DOUBLE what I've seen in other places! They DID have a few items that I have not seen elsewhere, but the parts that I looked up were definitely more expensive than elsewhere.

                  They listed a killer deal on some chrome side covers for a Virago that I'm working on but they obviously can't deliver what they promise. I can't wait all summer to sell this bike so I went elsewhere.

                  Now I'm hoping there won't be a hassle canceling my order. With my luck around November they'll charge my card double and I'll be stuck with 2 sets...

                      They list a few different phone numbers on their website, maybe you could call them up.

                          I did but there wasn't an answer but there's a 3 hours time difference. I'll try again in the morning if there isn't a reply to the eMail by the time I get up...

                                  Another source and good prices

                                  I have been using www.babbittsonline.com for oem and aftermarket items, and their prices consistently kick Bike Bandit's prices in the butt.
