I bought a stainless screw kit for the FZ1 from Desmoparts on 12/12 thru a "Buy It Now" Auction on e-bay. I paid for it immediately with PayPal.
Last week, I became concerned when I still had not received the kit and called the guy after sending an e-mail. He gives me some story about it taking up to 10 days to receive Priority Mail from Houston to Austin and says he's mailed it, he's off the hook. "If I sent out two kits for everyone ordered, I go out of business". No further offer of help. Then I get this on the 19th:
Still no kit today. He sells kits for all brands of bikes (except Harley) Other people's experiences may be different, but I'm not happy with this guy.

In the office now. Checked our shipment manifest and your FZ1 kit did ship
although it did ship late. We printed the label for shipment the 14th but it
didn't mail until the 16th late a night. Post office is off the hook on this
one. I'll accept blame for the delay.
If you need any extra screws to polish off some custom pieces on your bike
don't hesitate to ask.
Regards,
Chris Powers
