[Thrux-ton-up]

I need about 50-60 bits and pieces for the thrux and was wondering if anyone had actually ordered any OEM triumph parts from BikeBandit.com and how long it actually took to receive the parts. Thanks. JCW

a friend refered them to me. he has bought several things from them. they have a line in california where you can correspond online with one of their people or you can call them direct. it was fast enough.. about a week.

Thanks Indy

I've used them and found they were very reliable.

 

[Caffeinated]

Several times. They are reputable.

I've not bought Triumph parts from them, but was very satisfied when I got Kawasaki parts there. The price was good and the delivery was prompt. That is a bull's eye in my book...

I've used them also and got my parts in about a week. I will certainly be using them again.

 

[SpeedyPete]

Ditto.

Once I had the part number everything was ducky - fast, affordable, accurate.

Finding what you need on their site is a different story.

Took me about two weeks for an odd bit, but they kept me informed.

Reliable yes, but just as expensive as buying from a Triumph dealer! I've paid the price for several items, but it was quite convenient. Took a week to ten days to receive my order each time.

I also found their pricing to be right inline with the Triumph dealer I frequent....which is why I support my Triumph dealer.

Thanks for the input everyone. My local triumph dealer moved away to a high rent area - then went out of business. The other one is in downtown ATL and I hate driving down there. Bring the parts to my door please. JCW

Call Tom down in Augusta.....I think he'd ship to you.

BikeBandit want $278.00 for a Thruxton seat, Tom sold me one 2 weeks ago for $225.00 out the door. Took him 3 days to get it in.

That's a 50bux savings!

More so I think.
Just a quick look at a 'standard' part installed on a Triumph, Bikebandit wants $523.04 for a front Bridgestone and $546.13 for a rear!

Tires unlimited has the same front for $65.86 and the rear $114.85.

What makes them think their stock Bridgestone is worth that much more!? What would make them think ANY tire is worth that much?

Bikebandit may be good... but are they THAT good?

and then they have this note:
Please Note: Triumph parts will take longer than BikeBandit.com’s stated average shipping times due to delayed deliveries from the manufacturer.

I've never purchased from them, and maybe these are just anomalies or incorrect entries. I guess if you've had good service and you're happy with the sale, then that's what really counts.
