    Not me!

    I did business with them once and won't again. I ordered about 6 items and they got more wrong than right. I got it straightened out but I ended up paying for shipping back the stuff they got wrong.

    Having said that, I found Rob to be a very nice guy. In spite of that, I'd feel foolish doing business with them again because I see no reason to take the chance when there are so many other suppliers.

      Got my shovel out and dug this up...

      Okay, I just ordered the front and rear brake switches for my bike from CycleIIRecycle on Thursday evening and received them today (MONDAY). That to me is pretty WOW!! I see that they have had some issues but until I feel the sting, I'm a believer.

        I really can't argue with what anyone else has said above me in the posts.. I can imagine that they are having difficulties breaking into the internet world. They are a small cycle junk yard with some OEM parts.. There shop is PACKED (floor to ceiling with fairings/tanks/side covers/pipes hanging from the ceiling) with old engines stacked up and bike parts.. down to nuts and bolts categorized in cabinets and shelves. He also hase a section filled with gaskets and all the little piece stuff. It is a three-man/one woman shop that opens around 11:00 on Tue - Sat.. and there is always a line of 4 - 15 waiting at the counter to speak to Rob... Rob is the knowledge guy... kinda like calling a doctors office... you can ask the receptionist or nurse about your back pain... but it won't do you any good. Rob has built up a great small business... one that most bike lovers would envy. He did my bench test on my carbs for free and showed me how to adjust my floats so they did not stick. He recently found and pieced together a Windjammer for me to paint over the upcoming winter. (I want to replace my Kutter fairing with a Vetter) Rob usually knows what fits what.. even if not made to fit... and he can tell you what to do to get it to fit... he truly is gifted when it comes to our kind of bikes When you stand in line... for 30 minutes... waiting and listening to how he helps others it is amazing his degree of detail... like helping people determine how many clutch plates they will need in a modified setup that they did not modify, but nowq have to repair... stuff like that. Rob does get frustrated with IDIOTS who keep asking the same questions or who want him to read their minds because thaey ask for one thing... but really mean another while 8 people are waiting in line behind them...

        So for me.. I'm very lucky to be 12 minutes from their shop... and wish them the best in serving the internet package/ship environment... it's not their strong suit....yet.
