schenk Posted May 15, 2007 Report Share Posted May 15, 2007 This guy from day one has been nothing but trouble for me, first the deal was that i was using his swing arm and a arms to build aftermarket ones and give his stock ones and a set of aftermarket to him for free for letting me use his parts, so he drove down to our shop and showed up with bumpers and steering stems expecting me to make all of this stuff for free but all i wanted was the swingarm and a arms, and not 3 or 4 days later he was allready calling expecting them to be done which is impossible doing it in 3 or 4 weeks is almost impossible, all these parts have to be engineered and then find a supplier that can make them and make them right so the parts will work and not half ass it, i cant half ass it because if the first run of parts dont work very well my name is screwed and nobody will but anything from me right? And you know whats funny he calls me cussing and sending me nasty emails and i dont know why but does he not realize i am doing this work for him for free? did i say free? yep. Anyways he says i havent returned his calls thats funny i just talked to him on saturday , isnt that 2 days ago? the reason for that is because i am currently 300 miles away from home because my grandma died and i have a funeral to go to in the morning and i cant sit on the phone and argue with this guy about some bullshit in front of my family, i just dont need that, i am just going to send his parts back and send him his gas money for driving down here and be done with it, also this guy thinks i should work on his parts round the clock and quit my job just to get his parts done and i have a family to spend time with too, this is just plain ridiculous, also building a banshee swingarm is much faster and easier than a yfz 450 swing arm to build and that swingarm takes alot more parts and alot more outsourcing of those parts to build them, i dont think its worth the trouble or the time. Also with the banshee swing arm i recieved from vtecjun before i got your parts thats why they will be done before his , i just dont understand it, i am doing his work for FREE!!!!! and he comes on here trying to bash me? also when you order a swing arm or some a arms how long do they tell you it will take to recieve them? most say 4-6 weeks because they are built to order right? and they allready have there parts designed and all of there jigs built and parts ready and all they have to do is weld them together and it still takes 4-6 weeks, he wanted me to build the jigs get parts and have them done in 2 weeks, i dont know, Like I said, probably when you were typing all this. Im not trying to bash you. I am sorry to hear about your grandmother. In the past 3 months I also lost my grandfather and 2 uncles. I know what its like. I am also sorry for bugging you to much, I have a problem with nagging, don't know why just do. I have always been like that. Again I am sorry for your loss and sorry to be buggin you.

caleb205 Posted May 15, 2007 Report Share Posted May 15, 2007 looks to me like there are already a few people who've paid and are awaiting products from this guy. i'm just waiting for a little review because i too am in the market for a swing arm for my banshee. and i know what it's like to have a hobby on the side. i make rather good money at my current job but i get bored easily on my spare time and obviously this guys solution is to use his talents and produce 'quality' parts at a good price for the atv's that the rest of us ride as our hobby. i'm not going to knock him until i hear something about his parts...then again i won't order anything yet either. But i look at it like this......custom parts, pressed bearings, free powdercoating and shipped to my door for $200. even if you only get 1 summer out of it, it sure beats $1100 from yamaha. just my opinion.
