    Hey Chacal I should have been as prompt posting my satisfaction with my order as you were getting my parts to me. I appreciate the quick service and e-mail update when they shipped. Thanks again!

    Received my parts ahead of schedule also, since some were supposed to be backordered, but Len managed to scoop them so I didn't have additional waiting time. Great service, got the stuff I needed in a timely manner. As a European resident (US Citizen), I really am glad XJ4ever is out there. Not sure I could have come by what I needed on this side of the Atlantic. I'll echo what the previous poster said about not being as prompt with posting my safisfaction as you were with the order. Thanks much, Joe

    Great service, shipped parts the same day, and had them in my hands less than 48 hours after emailing, for less than I found anywhere else. Thanks!

    Thanks Chacal, not only was it easy to get all the parts I need but I got them in 2 days. No better place to get the right parts fast.

    Hey, thanks for the parts! I would like to say that he did a great job. He had prompt responses to all the questions I asked. I ordered the parts on the 24th and received them on the 28th. Great job! :)


    On a side note, the USPS didn't do a great job other than being fast. The box looked like it was dropped from the second floor onto a sidewalk... Twice. Luckily nothing was damaged.

    Len and xj4ever are just amazing. I recently finished a total rehab on an '82 seca 550, so I've ordered tons of stuff from him - great prices and service, and hundreds of dollars worth of free technical advice. I've used 2 other online stores for xj550rj parts, and they were fine. But Len has the best service, parts , prices, and expertise by far. Seriously - this is a great business/service. I should have posted earlier, but I was covered in grease and dirt!

    I don't want to sound like sour graps since every message between myself and the moderators has been first class BUT is there anything you can do to reduce the shipping charges for all of us outside the continental USA. I fear that once ordered the landed cost with shipping will be unreasonable. I have a list of items I would like to purchase to install over the winter and since this site is so important to my project I want to purchase from here. Perhaps chacal could recommend what method of shipping from him to Canada and elsewhere in the world is the most cost effective. I see that two of us are from Nova Scotia Canada ( hello bluenosers lol ) and someone from Denmark ( hello Denmark ) - perhaps someone can explain the best way to get things - speed of delivery is not always important during a restoration since if you know approx when it will arrive you can order accordingly but total landed cost is. Someone told me that ordering and having shipped via US postal service can often mean no customs inspection on smaller goods - this is the kind of info that I would like to obtain and share so the people behind this great site can obtain the orders they should have. I have no doubt that all the positive comments here are 100%

    Re: XJ PARTS FOR SALE---FOR ALL MAXIM, SECA, AND TURBO MODEL

    Hey yamaman, you are correct, shipping via postal service is the least expensive and you will not have to pay BROKERAGE fees to Canada postal for clearing the shipment thru Canadian CUSTOMS (non-governmental carriers, such as UPS/Fed-Ex/etc. are charged a fee by govt. to clear thru CUSTOMS, and that fee is passed on to you)............but, be aware that BROKERAGE fees are not CUSTOMS DUTIES (import fees, taxes, duties, whatever they call them) and those you typically have to pay on any inbound (imported) shipments.

    So, to summarize:

    BROKERAGE FEES: none thru the postal system, always charged via other carriers, and can be quite expensive.
    IMPORT DUTIES: almost always (although low-dollar-value shipments may not incur any import fees).
    SHIPPING CHARGES, INSURANCE, ETC.: varies by carrier and size/weight of shipment. Postal service is typically by far the cheapest for items that will "fit" thru their system.

    Re: XJ PARTS FOR SALE---FOR ALL MAXIM, SECA, AND TURBO MODEL

    I have an Australian 1991 XJ600s Seca II that has a rod poking out the side of the engine.

    I am trying to work out if it's worth shipping a second hand engine from the US as the local guy here is trying to rape my wallet.

    Do you have such a thing or do you only have new?

    Either way, I need a price please on either a second hand or a new engine and an approximate shipping cost to Perth, Western Australia.

    Thank you,

    Donald

    I have found if you keep the order BELOW $100 there are NO duties and the like. Also Len does mark the the parts as "Antique Motorcycle Part" which I believe makes a difference when it comes to duties and the like. At least that has been my experience when ordering from Len and even from Ebay. As long as it shipped as used and or antique it does make a difference. Also Len's shipping is the cheapest you will get for parts being shipped from the US!!

    Hey Donald, no help on an engine, but I'll tell you that transport for an engine from USA to Australia is going to be an incredible amount, perhaps $1000 US or more.

    Metal........no help on a complete set of carbs for a 550, although we do have all the parts needed to rebuild an original set of carbs or individual carb bodies (to replace broken ones).

    Tioricobikes....I sent you a PM thru this websites Private Message system.

    For parts requests, it is much better if you send us a PM (Private Message) or a real-world e-mail to us at:

    info@xj4ever.com

    and ignore the blank spaces before-and-after the "@" symbol, this website inserts them automatically as an anti-spam feature


    Import duties and fees are always a crap-shoot depending how badly your local or national government is hungry for revenue........


    Thanks!

    As always, excellent service from chacal. Worked with him to get the right set of shoes and springs for the rear brakes on my 750 AND got them shipped in time to work on the bike with my father. Brakes and other parts are all exactly as requested and showed up in record time.

    Thanks, chacal! You're a life-saver!

    I'm pretty sure my order got to me in three days, and that was using the cheap shipping option. I didn't even check for it Saturday, not expecting it till the next week. But my roommate checked the box on Sunday and said, "hey, you got something." Nice.

    I don't know where he gets all these parts or how he knows what they all are, but keep it up, Len! (or a lot of people will have to get Hondas, or something) ;)

    It took Len 2,5 months of communicating with me before I knew what I needed and wanted, but he was always very helpful! After finally placing the order, the parts were shipped within a day and I got them 7 days later (because he had to send them to the Netherlands) - which is really fast!

    Very happy with his service and will definately be ordering again.

    Good afternoon folks
    wanted to stop by and give a shoutout to chacal/Len
    From the incredibly detailed parts catalog, to his extensive knowledge of the XJ line, this operation is first class.
    Recieved my parts in three days.
    Alright, time to go pull some valve shims.

    Another big shout out to Len of xj4ever fame. The guy is now officially a ledgend. My order was shipped and arrived in 8 days. Not bad from Atlanta GA to Perth, Australia at the height of the Christmas season. It never ceases to amaze me the extent of the parts that Len can put his hands on and often a choice of OEM or after market. His product knowledge is awesome, even when dealing with my odd ball XJ750P. Much easier than getting blank stares from the local bike shops full of Y Gen street fighters.

    Another satisfied customer

    Many thanks for the great service Chacal. All items were recieved in 10 days to Southern Ontario as promised. I found all to be exactly as expected.


    Thanks for providing me a wonderful source for my 1982 XJ550RJ parts and I will gladly keep you in mind when I need to order anything else.

    Now can you please do something about all this snow and sub zero weather ?

    Thanks again
