After being on sportbikes for so long, I can't get used to having just a handful of online retailers for accessories for the Bonnie. I ordered some bar end mirrors and light clean-up kit for my bike on July 3rd. Still on backorder.

I also ordered some new handlebars and fork gaiters from another vendor. Backordered.

So I wait, and wait. If I ever get to mod this thing, I'll be sure to post the pics.

Place orders in the summer/fall.
Install mods over the winter.
Ride in the spring.
Rinse & repeat.

Oh, it won't stop me from riding, trust me. Just got a few lil cosmetics I'm itching to do.

Ontwo,

I see you are new to the Forum, so first-off welcome to the asylum!

If you hang around long enough, you'll hear about various vendors, good and bad. There is also a "Dealers and Vendors" section somewhere, I think in the "General" area.

Good ones (to my knowledge) are newbonneville, Motorcycle-Superstore, MDSS (Motorcycle Discount Super-Store). All deliver on time, or let you know up front, and all take returns and stuff without a hassle.

I haven't had any "bad" experiences, so can't think of any bad ones.

I have a real hard time chosing parts that are not back ordered!

I have the best luck it seems with newbonneville.com, and I like their customer service very much.

Oh, I don't have any customer service issues. I've been notified about the backorders. But I guess I just have a knack for ordering the out-of-stock items

Received my SuperBars and Fork Gaiters.

Bar end mirrors and Haynes manual shipped yesterday. Scheduled to arrive tomorrow.

In the process of a bafflectomy with pics. I'll post them ASAP
