Not sure if this is the proper place to post this but thought it would be of interest to some. This was posted on the GS_Bikes forum.
I wanted to pass this on to the group, was looking for a new reg/rect
for my 81 gs1000 and found a US online dealer selling something with the
ELECTREX product in it's name (Electrex as in the promo in the GS Bikes
website) which was $10 less expensive, emailed Electrex in England
asking if this was their produce and received the following which to me
is very important in terms quality vs. potential junk and the resulting
problems:
/We used to have a distributor in the USA called Electrex USA; this
company is now called Electrosport. Electrosport copied our product
range 4 years ago and had them made in China. I believe the product
pictures on the motorcycle-superstore website are still our original
photos which probably do not resemble the unit you would receive from
Ricks Motorsport or Electrosport.
We are constantly up-dating our manufacturing procedures to ensure that
we make reliable heavy-duty products which are guaranteed for one year
from the point of sale. We have no distributors for this product in the
USA, and shall be pleased to supply you direct.
