hey

So to cut a long story short bike broke mechanic thought it was big end turns out its the crank bolt orders the parts needed from Yamaha (needed other bits done as well due to me not taking care of them ) so he orders parts to be told they are on BACK ORDER .......... Proceeds to tell me hes been waiting a month for another Customers parts from honda .......

How long do they normally take ?

Would love to know before go mental at the mechanic

Cheers in advance

Dam the problem is the bike is my commuter and its been with him for a month now really can be having it off the road any longer

Cheers dude I have seen that website on few threads I have had a quick look through and from what I know it needs 97% of the parts are in stock ....

He was saying that he`d prefer to put Yam parts in because then he can stand over his work and that he would call them Monday and that he would call me back at this point he was told no I`ll be calling him and if the delivery time is within the next week I dont care about warranty and that it needs sort Now .......

Usually non-stock/special order items that I've ordered (from my dealer and AJ Sutton) take three working days to arrive with them. All the engine parts, cycle parts and most of the electrics on the XT are made in, and stocked in the EU. There is nothing that needs to come from Japan apart from the ECU and a handful of other fuel injection/ignition/immobiliser related parts.

If Minarelli don't have the egine parts you need in stock in Italy, then you've obviously got to factor in a manufacturing lead time, and that I wouldn't like to guess at.
