Northman Posted December 22, 2003 Share Posted December 22, 2003 OK, I haven't bought anything from him, yet, but he's been very helpful with answering questions about his own project bike, and seems to be very open and honest. With that alone, I'll definitely use him when there's a need. Blackbird Spares UPDATE (by TechnoGecko): This vendor is no longer in business due to the owner being involved in a serious motorcycle accident.

ericsh Posted June 8, 2005 Share Posted June 8, 2005 Hi, I ordered the preload adjuster bar risers from Blackbird spares - very impressed. Good e-mail communication, and I had the stuff from England faster than many local vendors. Thanks A+++ rating. Jolly Good! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John01XX Posted June 9, 2005 Share Posted June 9, 2005 Pete is a great person even in real life :!: :!: His Bike is equally impressive. There seems to be something in the water over there, Jaws(John Smith) and Pete are both great people to deal with and run a very helpful and informative business that is an asset to the Blackbird community. I actually have a a funny story about Pete and I with his Blackbird.!! Last year Pete got a ticket going home from the Bash and he got out of the ticket with my help since I was in England at the time with a Florida License. Fortunately England does not report driving violations back to the USA All I know is my test ride on his BadAzz Blackbird was fun, fast and worth the points I got on my English Driving Record. Tho I don't really even remember riding it at all ????? I will have to find the video i have of Pete and Psycho Biker Ben riding 2-up together and both of them dragging their knees at the same time around corners !!

KCBIRD Posted June 11, 2005 Share Posted June 11, 2005 I'll second the recommendations. I haven't bought anything from them yet, but Pete has been very helpful with answering questions on my own RC51 front end conversion. Seems to be a great guy and very willing to share info.

feelergaugephil Posted October 18, 2005 Share Posted October 18, 2005 I e-mailed them 3 times about parts for my 97 xx, as of today (2 months later) I am still awaiting a response from them! Great business ethics! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tropical Bird Posted October 18, 2005 Share Posted October 18, 2005 I have bought a SW-Motech rear rack and Givi adapter plate from Blackbird spares - excellent service. Highly recommended. 8) Rgds Glenn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OrganDonor Posted October 19, 2005 Share Posted October 19, 2005 Got a package of black plastic fasteners, mirror extenders, and black windscreen bolts from 'em two weeks ago. Was cheaper than buying stateside, even with the crappy exchange rate and international shipping. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
