    Efff jc whitney

    I wasted a whole month waiting for them to ship my new sport fairing. http://www.jcwhitney.com/autoparts/P...=sport+fairing. After much research, this is the one I want. I order last month. It was supposed to ship....tomorrow. So I checked the status to make sure. All of a sudden, it says it's due to ship at the end of August now.

    WTF?!! Oddly on the site, it says ships in 2 days. KINDA MISLEADING. So I called, they gave me the runaround and I canceled my order. They told me they get the fairing from EMGO.

    I found the EMGO site, but they have no phone number listed.

    Anyone know where I can get this EMGO sport style fairing from.

    thanks... and I will not be dealing with JC whitney anymore

    I got a brand new one off Ebay for less than that! It was also Emgo Branded. It was OK but the Maier one is much higher quality & looks much nicer when fitted in my opinion.

      Was it the Viper. I don't like the Viper../ bullet. I like the one JC Whitney has ... as per the link above.

      Any interest in selling it if it is the JC one?

        Sounds like EMGO may be out of stock. If that's the case You will have to hope to find a seller who already has One.

        2001 KLR650 too pretty to get dirty

        Life is a balancing act, enjoy every day, "later" will come sooner than you think. Denying yourself joy now betting you will have health and money to enjoy life later is a bad bet.

            Nope... it was the EMGO one. Cafekid has the one I had now... not sure if he's using it or not, might be worth asking.

              I have the Emgo, I think it is the "viper" I got it from an ebay seller (who still has them posted last I looked). I got it for 45 bucks shipping and all.

                Check with Cycle Recycle II in Indy. I know they sell them, and I know I've seen them there in the past, but who knows what they have in stock.

                Of course, good luck getting through on the phone -- they're more than a little swamped this summer, and have been slipping up a bit lately. Hope they get it together.

                Don't even try email -- I've never known them to answer an email.

                  Try this web-site, all the way at the bottom. I bought the same fairing years back, but can't recall if this is the company. I thought I paid about $10 less, but it was a while ago, and my brain ain't what it used to be!
                  Sorry to hear about your misfortune; good luck next time around!

                    thanks for all the help guys.

                    I'm pretty sure Viper isn't the same helmet. It looks similar, but the viper viser is more..Bubbled. I've never seen them side by side so who the hell knows.

                    I'm thinking about getting the maier. Anyone have a shot it what it looks like on their bike. I've seen one photo of it here on the boards, but would like to see anothe.

                    oh and I checked bout Cycle recycle and bike therapy....not the same helmet. Why am I so difficult.
