  2. Count me in for a black XXL tee. Any chance of ballcaps with an embroidered logo? Pics of the logo coming soon?
  3. I know this is an older thread, but its dealing with a common problem. I wish I could find a set of Buell pegs to try. I ended up buying a Motratech peg lowering kit. I have not yet installed it, but wondered what other's experience was with Motratech. Mine so far has been lackluster save for a decent first conversation with him.When we talked, he had one set so I got online and ordered it--spendy for sure, but I'd read reviews and thought our talk was good. $35 shipping, yet the box arrive with a $12.95 US Postage sticker, no explanation. Aggrevating, but not the end of the world. I paid with PayPal, almost $500 but heard nothing from him for 10-days. When I called, he informed me that he wasn't happy with the castings (?) and would get it shipped the next couple days. Still nothing. I began e-mailing him every day or two and got one story or another about why it'll be shipped by this day, then that day. Then the end of the week. Got an e-mail at the end of the week informing me that he was missing one stainless steel screw and was having more screws overnighted so he could ship the kit out the next day (Saturday). Monday late, I got another e-mail, sorry I couldn't get the kit to you this weekend, the screws (yes, the overnighted ones) only came in on Monday. Finally, the next Thursday, almost a month after I ordered (and paid for) the one last set he had, the order arrived. I opened the box and was highly disappointed. Sloppy packaging left the pieces at the bottom of the box with a couple small pieces of newspaper tossed in--but the whole box rattled. When I opened it, the brake foot peg appears to have been filed down such that it has no 'grip' and doesn't match the shifter peg on the other side. There are also several areas on the castings with there is no metal. I'll try the kit this weekend, but for charging me 3-times what the actually shipping was and $450 for the 'kit' I'm less than impressed. The promise of better ergos and that he actually had the same issue is the only reason I am not hopping mad over this less than stellar customer experience. What ever happened to charging a customer once the product had been shipped? And at this price, I kind of feel like I got a sloppy second he had laying around rather than tell me he won't have any until XYZ date when he does another run. Hmmpf...end of rant. Let's hope it solves the ergos.
