odaen Posted January 20, 2006 Report Posted January 20, 2006 I don't know this guy from Adam, and he could totally be screwing you over. But I will say, the USPS tracking numbers don't work like UPS tracking numbers with step by step tracking. When I order my VForce's from a company, I received an email with the tracking number, nothing showed on the USPS site, but then they just showed up. Again, he could be screwing you, but the postal tracking system does suck, so who knows... 462093[/snapback] Exactly what he said. I hate when people ship stuff via USPS. I bought a complete front end from Michigan on ebay. The guy showed me the receipt when he shipped it from a post office, and it took damn near 3 weeks to show up. Quote

Fireroad Express Posted January 20, 2006 Report Posted January 20, 2006 Never, never ship anything the least bit valuable or important by USPS. Got taken a few times times using this shipping method. A courier such as UPS or Fed-ex that has a proven tracking system is your best bet when doing business. It's funny how things just mysteriously go missing at the post office! Quote

Just getting more and more impatient, and this guys track record isnt real good. Like I have said before $30 doesnt mean that much to me, just the thought of someone stealing from me gets to me worse than anything. Oh well. If he sent it then it should be here by the begining of next week at the latest. I understand things come up, but i would at least get in contact with the buyer to let them know what is going on. Even if i had to have someone else do it for me. later Quote
GYTWYPT Posted January 22, 2006 Report Posted January 22, 2006 Did u get ur caps yet? 462706[/snapback] I just recieved mine today. Now if i just knew what in the hell it fit i would be doing alright. To small for a banshee????? any ideas anyone? SOB after all that BS. Guess he still got me. Oh well at least he sent the cap. He probably never did say that it fit a banshee. Oh well i have a decent looking $30 paperweight now. Sweeeeeet! Maybe i can figure out how to get the old lathe set up and turn it down so it will fit. I hope yours fits TooManyToys. Quote

I hope yours fits TooManyToys. 462850[/snapback] sorry, but i cant help to chuckle a little bit. You wait 2 months to get a gas cap, then the one you get isnt even for a banshee. What the hell!! On the billet gas cap for my kx125 it says like cr/rm/kx, see if that cap says the model its for then sell it on ebay!! Quote

Too Many Toys Posted January 22, 2006 Author Report Posted January 22, 2006 I got mine yesterday. I bought it for my wifes 250r and it fits perfect. I think he did say that it would fit a banshee too. But I don't think its possible for it to fit both. You could sell it on ebay because I am sure that someone with a 250r would want it. It wouldbe a great paper weight if they didn't smell like gas so damn bad. Let us know what you end up doing. I may have a friend or two that would want it. Quote

ABOVE Went back and found his original post. He did say they where for honda gas tanks and that they would alos fit a banshee. Guess that is what i get for not knowing myself. Oh well I am just glad he decided to send our stuff. Dont think i would take a chance on him again, but it worked out this time. I have some firends that have hondas so i can probably pawn it to one of them. Good ending all in all. Oh and if anyone is curious you can fly from Missouri to Washington and back for less than $300 later Quote
motocrossrider68 Posted January 23, 2006 Report Posted January 23, 2006 i have a honda gas cap currently on my banshee it will fit Quote
GYTWYPT Posted January 23, 2006 Report Posted January 23, 2006 i have a honda gas cap currently on my banshee it will fit 463169[/snapback] well this one wont. I got the calipers out. and it is a few mm smaller than the banshee cap. Wish it would. Quote
Too Many Toys Posted January 23, 2006 Author Report Posted January 23, 2006 Oh come on you can make fit if you just twist it hard enough. It just might leak afterward. Who cares as long as it looks good!!! lmao, I was in rocky mountain atv the other day and they had a ton of billet gas caps for sale that were cheaper than what we paid. You may want to check them out. That was part of my frustration, I thought I would help out another hq'er. So I bought his instead. Quote
