Bikebandit is funny...
So I ordered a set of float bloat o-ring gaskets and get charged 6-7$ shipping.[ UGH!] Logically I would think you could overnight it in an envelope...
Nope! Comes in an 8x8 BOX almost 10 days later.... Really?? Here's the kicker. I ordered a new petcock from ebay and it arrived today as well...They shipped that in a smaller box than what the gaskets were shipped in... Such a waste. |

I always chuckle when we get a huge box from amazon with tiny little part in it. It seems so wasteful.

I know how you feel. These parts sites take forever to ship. I ordered some handlebars for my FZ6 off RonAyers and they finally created a shipping label for it a week later. Luckily they aren't too far away so I will still have time to put it on before my long trip next week.

I think they have to order from the manufacturer.
