lensmanxx Posted April 17, 2008 Share Posted April 17, 2008 I just ordered some parts from Bike Bandit. They have all the schematics on line. It was fairly easy to find what I needed. It is a bit of a challenge to figure out from the picture, if the fastener you are looking for matches what is in the drawing. I rely more on the location, than the depicted image. What annoys me is that the stupid little plastic trim clips from Honda (push in to lock) are three bucks each. I think my local dealer was charging four or five dollars each. Spare levers ( which I hope never to need) ran $65 for the pair w/o hardware. I'll write in again after I get the order. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John's got the plastic dealys for $6 and some change, and you get a bag of 10 edit: http://www.bikebits.us/productdetail_singl...p;ProductID=298 $6.95 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lensmanxx Posted April 17, 2008 Author Share Posted April 17, 2008 Thanks, I'll try to change my order. The manual calls them trim pins Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hooplehead Posted May 14, 2008 Share Posted May 14, 2008 Johns bike bits man! I used to order from bandit a lot. Last order, they sent me grips I couldn't use. l I placed another order a week later. Well, most of the crap on that order was cross-shipped, so I didn't get the order for over 2 weeks! Bike bandit likes to stall an entire order when they are waiting on $5 worth of $200! I got the parts and asked them if I could return the grips with my next $200+ order (I have the disease). I was notified that I had waited too long, and I wouldn't get anything for those $15 grips. That totally pissed me off! Here I am spending over $1000 a year at bike bandit, and they wouldn't even give me credit for $15! Hell, I would've let them take 15% for stocking. So, I informed them that they wouldn't be getting any orders over $20 from me again, and have stuck to it. I can't say they suck, but I can't say. . . .Well yeah, I'll say it. BIKE BANDIT SUCKS!!!

97 exex Posted June 22, 2011 Share Posted June 22, 2011 Had a couple good experiences with Bike Bandit. Only use them now when I can get free shipping. They don't always have the lowest prices, but could get the parts that I needed and have a large selection. As mentioned above, I'v used their site just for the schematics. Hell, they have an Iphone app. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
