OK, so I ordered the parts yesterday. The cheapest place for the pods was thru Clemmons Trading (thanks mriddle) and it shipped today and will be here on the 18th(fedex).
The best price I could find on the dynojet kit was on ebay from JC Motors. It showed they had 5 available, but just to make sure I called them. Spoke with a guy named Phil, he said yup, in stock. Ok so done, purchased on ebay and paid thru paypal right away. I then get an email today from them saying shipping will be delayed.

afternoon,

fyi, there will be a delay in shipping.

should receive in 5-7 business days.


Please let me know if you have any questions, we appreciate your business.

So I called and he said they had none in stock, and could not drop ship it to me. They would have to order from their supplier, have it shipped to them, then they will ship it to me. I told him I needed it buy the weekend of the 20th and he said it should be here.

So my question is , all that shipping around in 5-7 business days......they are in CA....I am in NC, I am pretty sure he said his supplier was in Wisconsin. Yah, I dont think so.
I feel really wronged here, I mean I did everything I could do to verify "in stock" I think. Should I give him all the rope to hang himself with or should I ask for a refund and try to get it elsewhere? But then I have lost at least a day or 2 of shipping time.......grrrr

This is the current listing on ebay, they are totally aware they have none in stock.

Hey there Jwhelan, that would be the the black wrinkle. The bodies of the carbs are chrome with a 120% clear on top. The brackets and choke rod are low gloss black and the red is just high gloss red. The chokes slide great with the rod being powdercoated, "its like buttah". Its all powdercoated finishes with stainless bolts.

Thanks for all your compliments!! I am cheese'n:D


Also on the shipping problem....just got an email from them, it is being shipped today priority USPS and if thats the case, I should totally have the kit by next weekend!!! I am excited. This weekend I am gooing to fix the motor and get it back in the frame as I now the the new bearing and the gasket set. Then I will strike the airbox and figure out what brakets I need to make for what things bolted to it,.......should be fun :)
 
got mine all finished and running smooth today i imagine i still need to sync the carbs better but wow what an improvement in sound and speed.


i have a vid im uploading to youtube so you can get the feel of the sound. :dancing:

I'm new to this forum. Just wondering if the part number 005-121 fits a suzuki gs550L 1985 model? I can't believe I found a sight for this bike. It's awesome.
