    4 mins from Brisbane to Townsville. Beam me Up, Scotty!!....

    FYI, cmsnl homepage is smothered with "we've dropped our freight while everyone else is increasing theirs". Could be worth a second look if you need rare genuine parts.

    Seems to be a day for deliveries... mine arrived from Impex... a set of fork seals and fork dust covers... well that was what my order was.
    The box that arrived was 68cm long, 20cm wide and 12 cm high... hmm I though... slight overkill for 120g of seals.
    What was inside?????
    IMG_6442.jpeg

    A grill for a Suzuki car of some sort... ummm not mine.
    I now have some sort of apology from Impex.... although they wanted more proof.. like a copy of the Air Waybill..
    Apparently they tell me it is their fault... (really!!!!) and my parts are there still and they will ship them today.
    Oh.. and can I hang onto the part that arrived as it is for someone here in Australia who may still want it...
    Maybe they do but I wont be sending it to them..
    Stay tuned for the next episode.......

    Why not? If impex gives you a refund to post it, or you go reply pay, it won't be out of your pocket.

    The postman has been busy:

    Plus a mid-body gasket that is the size of your little fingernail, which came in a jiffy bag - seemed overkill, but that means it is tracked. And I also received my rates notice, so it's been an expensive month! Rice and gravy....

    Well so far the only thing Impex have done is ship my item... I would have preferred them not to and just refund everything but...
    Their only response to my request for a refund of the "overcharged" freight is "thank you for contating Impex"
    nothing more.
    I doubt they will refund me... and they probably wont contact the other person unless they query where their item is.
    I wont be ignorant about it... but I will not do anything for Impex out of my pocket.

    So I had 2 deliveries (well 2 that relate to bikes) today... my repackaged correct parts from Impex in a standard A5 DHL airbag... but surprisingly no refund or response from them..maybe I should sell the Suzuki Grill to re-coup my costs :)
    The other shipment was my rim and front axle from Zenmarket... extremely well packaged and costing $20 more to freight than the fork seals..
    More info in my SRX thread

    The rim look's really nice , should polish up nicely :thumb_ups:.

    The other 3WP rim i mentioned earlier is pretty well filthy , i couldn't even tell if the rim lips where damaged or not. It's like the previous owner was a member of the dirty scum bag wheel club :fuckyou:.

    Would you like me to send the part's that i have here for you , as you'll need the part to center the wheel in the fork's.

    I am pretty happy with the rim....The correct spacer came with the axle (the spacer is different to the 51Y) so the only part I will eventually need will be the speedo hub... but hang onto that as I will be up your way before I am even close to needing that :)

    Not yet. Still working on the design. Besides, it has been so hot in not sure it would cool enough to set at the moment. Yuck!

    Well... the first pic was Friday
    A pair of Zero offset Ducati 300mm disc rotors for a miserly $85.00. Bolted one onto the SRX rim today and it looks perfect... even if I was to mount the Gold Spot monoblock (I wont be doing that) it clears the rim and there is plenty of clearance for the disc. Plus I have a spare :)
    s-l1600.jpeg

    Then today I was trolling through Zenmarket for a particular item and I stumbled across these next 2 items... both purchased at quite good prices.... most unusual :)
    A really good condition chrome (it is plastic though) SRX250 3WP headlight surround. I have one but it has a few big cracks in it so this will be much better. I may even paint the outside yet... I will see what it is like when it gets here.
    i-img640x480-1644821346ab0us4228683.jpeg

    And lastly.. a really nice set of Bar end mirrors that look to be reasonable size and not from a Road Warrior or wannabe Chopper.
    i-img1200x1200-1648461177hgb1f7241087.jpeg

    The 2 Zenmarket items will be a week or so before they get here...
