OEM parts

[Chris Velardi]

Who has the best one line parts prices? Cant stand the Local Dealer (Dan Turco's in Rutland VT) Went in for a simple chain case oil change and asked them if they could change the suspension settinging while they had it thawed out and on the lift) that other owners experinecing the same handeling on the RX1.info forum have found work well for them, and the owner agued with me that "thats not the proper way to set up a Warrior" Realizing his arogant, more knowelegable than thou attitude, I simply agreed to try the settings he felt were corect. The 20 min oil changed turned into a 24 hour delay (eventhough they told me it could be done same day when I called before droping it off) So I pull in the next day to get it (only to find it was still not done, and the owner telling me "he just has to tell the guys inthe back how to set it up" Now being very peived asked why he didnt tell them yesterday how to set it up right?! He stated it take time to do things right instead of admitting they just didnt get to it or he forgot. When he finaly asked me if I wanted it done right? I simply replied, NO :evil: I just want the sled back ...I do the ajustments my self the way I asked them to be done in the begining. He acked quite insulted and and said he didnt apreciate being spoken to that way , I insured him that I didnt mean to insult him I just dint apreciate the work not being done in a timely manner, and his blatent lack of customer service skills " when a paying customer askes you to make changes to the suspension settings , you do it , you dont agure that it's not the right way. (especaily with so many setting different , and rider styles ) It's amazing now everyone I ask that has had a Yamaha if they use them , I get the same reply " not unless I have to" So I will buy my parts on line and do the work myself (if I had only had the spanner whenches I would have done the work myself from day one.
(sorry about the rant but dealers like this really piss me off.)

Give Matt a call at the Speedshop....www.thespeedshop1.com. He's a great guy, and can get all OEM parts for you a very competative prices. His website as OEM parts finder link, so you can look up part number...makes it easier to order. I've also ordered from Ronnies...www.HSLM.com in the past with good results. Darren

I have also had good luck with Port Yamaha in Wisconsin. They will UPS stuff out same day.

Chris -
http://www.ronnies.com has all the Yamaha fiche and I have ordered engine parts very reasonably and had them arrive super fast.

I have had limited dealings w/Turco's. They are supposedly the premier Yamaha dealership in VT. I live a bit too far away to deal with them but have gotten some parts and advice there from time to time.

Good luck.
