Has anyone tired cheap cycle parts.com for parts?

I just placed an order but doubt I will order from them again. 17 friggen bucks to ship a bunch of seals that will fit in a padded envelope. Plus not expected to ship till July 6th. 3 weeks to get parts?

Their shipping is slower than ron ayers. Good thing the parts aren't keeping me from riding.

Thought i would give em a try after reading about good service on another board.

I have purchased parts from them. Price for parts is better than Ron Ayers however I agree mail cost is higher.

It's a mixed bag. They are cheaper on some Kawi parts than Bike Bandit and more expensive on others. Bike Bandit gives 10% off to AMA members, so it pays to join! I've also found Cheap Cycle Parts a little slower on delivery. Check prices before you order!

They were cheaper than ron ayers who I usually get oem parts from. I have never bought from bike bandit as I have found them higher priced. Just got an email saying order has been processed and they added another 2 days to the order.
I won't be ordering from them again and if they didn't stick you with a 20% fee to cancel I would. With the price they are charging for shipping it should be much quicker considering the actual cost would be about 3 bucks first class mail.

Remember, they don't stock these parts, they have to get them from a Kawasaki distributor. If they don't have a distributor close by, they have to wait for delivery before they can re-ship to you. Also, the dist. may be out of stock on your item. You could always go to your dealer and pay more for the privilege of waiting.
