Beware SuzukiAustralia.com

One of the guys on the Kat forum appears to have been ripped off by this mob.

He bought a seat from them no problems, but then paid a fair sum of money for some brand new Kat instruments.

He has not heard from them since paying the big $$$

They sell from their website and on Gumtree.

Beware!

PS: If anyone has dealt with them and has any contact details beyond an email address please PM me and I will pass them on.

A top bloke has been ripped off!

sounds pretty shonky faking the real suzuki australia site suzukimotorcycles.com.au
sneaky buggers dont give away much info in their contact details
how did your mate pay them ?

Yeah dodgy bastards... he wouldn't have shelled out serious $$$ if the seat sale hadn't have worked out.

Unfortunately it was direct deposit, so no Paypal protection or anything...

[ozman]

tell him to go to the cops about it
its fraud they will chase them down

Pete,

I probably have 3 or 4 sets of used Kat clocks in the garage collecting dust. I also have a 140mph (83 Kat) new in the box.
They'd be in miles per hour, but you could change the face plate if you wanted. If you need one (or your mate needs one) let me know.

Cheers Scott, will pass the word on and let you know if there is interest... and I suspect there probably will be

It looks like one of the other guys has a contact who's been able to get some detailed contact information so we may be on the path to resolution yet

So after much tracing down and tracking by some of us over on KA, it appears there may be some light at the end of the tunnel.

I will update as I hear it...

So the good news the instruments have arrived and appear to be the good original item purchased.

It was still very unprofessional and the guy let unrelated things hinder the business transaction but he claims to have learnt from this situation.

Apparently he has only recently acquired the business.

I think I would exercise caution if dealing with them and make sure you have a phone number and address before transferring any $$$.
