XJ4ever parts & service

Thanks guys!

 

Valve shim tool and carb parts received in excellent order, thanks!

Valve shim tool worked great...I feel way better with it than sticking foreign objects in there, highly recommended!

 

Thanks a lot Chacal!
I got my second order in a week today. The three times I have ordered, each got to me in two days. My break job turned out to be more than I planned, but Chacal saved the day! Hopefully sometime soon I will be able to get the braided stainless steel brake line to. I can tell the front brakes are not all they can be.
The fast service always helps me out, since my XJ750 is my only transportation. I feel safer on my bike than I do driving a car. One day I might get a car or another bike for backup transportation.

 

Thanks so much! I received gracious, professional service. Fair prices. Overall a wonderful experience. Thanks, guys.

 

Thanks guys, I appreciate your business and support!

 

Another happy customer here! Amazing service, not to mention helpful!

 

Thanks rockin'!

 

OK I admit I was a bit uneasy about the non-shopping cart approach.

However

I received my order after 2 days. Everything was as described, packaged very well, & labeled.

I received 3 emails in the span of those 2 days.keeping me informed.

He answered a question I had about the ordering process.

One set of items that he did not have in stock but should be in on Thursday.

A notification that my package had shipped.

I will not hesitate to order from XJ4EVER.com


Thank You Len you made it a very enjoyable transaction.

 

Thanks Kendall, I appreciate your business and support!

Those screws came back in stock late today (well, early tonight!) and are going to be headin' your way tomorrow.........

 

Chacal, you are the Heaven-sent supplier of XJ parts. Ordered parts from you last fall. Came in 2 days. Ordered last week, same 2 day arrival. Ordered the other day, expect parts tomorrow hopefully.
I am curious however about something. After a couple of hours reading your 6 page catalog, I wasn't able to find any right side battery covers for an xj650. Will you be able to supply them in the future I hope. Mine is cracked at the clip from a previous owner not gently easing the cover off. They have been hard to find in good shape and in the color of my bike.

Anyway I can HIGHLY RECOMMEND Chacal for all your XJ needs. Thanks Len

 

Hey Corgi, thanks! I sent you a PM on the side cover, I might have a good one laying around here somewhere............

 

Chacal, my parts came today. Everything in excellent shape thanks to your excellent job of packing.

 

Another satisfied customer. Gasket is gorgeous, everything packed well and organization is amazing.

Chacal said he didn't think it would make it by Saturday, and I got them by noon Friday!

Only disappointment was the $7 I paid for about 1/4 of an ounce of silicon grease. Probably my fault for not knowing it was so expensive but I guess I expected more than a spoonful for $7.

But overall very very happy. Gasket quality is superb!

Thanks for dealing with my hundred or so PM's Len! lol

 

So Far TWO orders that came perfect and faster than expected! Paypaled Len thursday after hours for priority shipping. They got out asap on friday and were at my door monday afternoon! Excellent packaging and quick responses to emails.

**One word of advice though when ordering carb parts, expect a teeny package...I'm not used to working on such small parts so when a 100+ order came in a 4x4 cube it took away the initial excitement =) I was very pleased with it upon usage of said parts!**

Like I told Len, he makes owning these bikes possible for the masses still. No hunting for parts or paying dearly for dealership hassle.

 

Thanks guys!

Next time I'll use a bigger box, just for effect........

ALSO, and my apologies for the delay in responding to everyone's questions and comments. We had severe storms in this area last weekend, and we are now just FINALLY getting our power and internet service back (Tuesday evening!!).

 

Placed my order April 1st and the package arrived today. Not too bad when you consider that once the package reaches the Canadian border it travels via dogsled and is delivered by mailmen wearing snow shoes. Everything accounted for and as expected.
I'm still amazed at the number of threads that get started, all asking, "where can I get this?" The answer to all of them is "Chacal."
Keep up the good work!

 

Yep, my last two orders just arrived via dogsled! Great service and packaging as always, and really fast shipping considering the border crossing. (Customs finally got into the last box...guess it had to happen sooner or later...)

Thanks Len!

 

Thanks all you dog-sledders! Hope that Spring arrives soon......

 

I just got my first order from chacal. A bit uneasy about the process, but he was great with communication, and tailored the catalog to exactly what I needed. I ordered on a holiday weekend, and the package arrived on Thursday the next week, and this was with the free 7 day shipping! Parts are great. Also bought a tool from him that I didn't know how to use, and he has been very prompt in responding to my questions about the tool.

Thanks chacal!

 

Thanks Bot! I appreciate your business and let me know if I can be of any further help.

 

Just installed my Hella Euro Vision Plus H4 upgrade from chacal...wow! If you haven't bought one from him yet, do so now! Don't know how I survived so long with the stock sealed beam...

 

Hey goser, thanks! Yes, those lights really do the trick!

 

I shudder to think what we would do without Len. Excellent service, communication, and fast shipping (2 days!!) Thanks for the sexy parts. I'll be ordering soon again.

 

Thanks Josh!

 

Once again, another order.
Ordered Tuesday ~3pm, had it Saturday w/ Priority.

Everything fit great (all new gaskets for carbs) and went very well.
Quality stuff, from a quality Guy!

Thanks Len.

 

Chacal must have asked for my delivery to be by turbo dog sled. Ordered on April 21 arrived on April 29. All in good condition as promised. Now I have to decide paint and install basement trim or get bike on the road?? Ok all done bike won house will have to wait.
Thank you Len for your fast service and all your help, even to dog sled country.

 

Got my parts today. Ordered on Monday as always super prompt shipping from Len

 

Thanks guys for your business!

 

Last order shipped on April 27th. Arrived at my door May 4th. Some of our snow has melted so the dog sled was much faster! Canada Customs even kept their paws off it and didn't ding me for extra taxes and duty! Thanks Len.

 

Thanks Chacal,

I ordered twice from xj4ever and every part has been on the money!! The shipping has been early both times I have ordered. The communication is quick, great tips included with the order on how to correctly use YICS tool and clean out tools.

Thanks Again,

Kyle

 

Thanks Len,

Received my first order yesterday. Parts were well-packed and identified - everything as it should be. The deluxe petcock rebuild kit is fantastic! Everything you need to make it like new again - and boy was mine SHOT!

I'm SO happy to have found this site and this parts resource! I'll be placing my next order in a few days...

Thanks again,

Thanks everyone!

 

Hi Len go my latest order for control cables, filter and gas cap seal. I'll get them installed when I heal a bit more. I did get the gas cap seal on.

Thanks again for your usual fast and efficient service!

 

I placed an order and it arrived missing the turn signal gasket. I PMed chacal and I had the gasket in 2 days. I live in Colorado. He sent the gasket Priority mail. That's Service!

chacal is the best.

His parts are as he describes, they fit, his knowledge of these bikes is amazing and he backs this up with unbelievable service.

Thanks Len!

Thanks guys, I appreciate your business!

 

Another satisfied customer.

Now to put these things to use and get this bike running again.

 

Howdy! I found this site b/c I was google searching Hitachi jets #40 #41. I was looking for jets for my HSC40 carb (on my 82 XV920). I don't own a XJ bike and i didn't realize this when I emailed Len (Chacal) to ask if he still had the jets and what the price was (the thread that came up on google was a year or so old).

After Len emailed me back i realized these were for XJ bike and not XV bikes, I emailed him back and said i was sorry if i wasted his time. Len looked up the part numbers and compared diagrams (without me asking him too) and told me the part numbers for the main jets were the same, but the part numbers for the pilot jets were different, however the mains and pilots on his XJ bikes were the same dimensions (you could swap them if you wanted to) so if that was true on my XV then it might work. I said I'd give it a go and see what happened (the jets on the XV are swappable, i did it once on accident and got a REALLY rich idle). Well... that was two days ago, I emailed him first three days ago, today I got my jets in the mail and haven't installed them yet, but i'll be shocked if they don't work, i did a visual comparison to a bad set of jets i had laying around and they look identical, all the way down to the thread count.

Bottom line, Len's customer service is AMAZING. He went out of his way to see if he had a product that would work for me or not and then got that product to me asap. His shipping and hanlding charge was only $2 more than it actually cost him to mail the package, and considering that he has to take time to pull the part from wherever he's storing it and then drive to the post office, i say that the shipping was well under what i would consider a reasonable price.

Oh, and his price for the jets was half of what i could find anywhere else. The next cheapest place I had found (which i had ordered them from 3 weeks ago and they still hadn't shipped them or responded to my emails, or picked up their phone when i called) was going to cost me about $10 more with all the shipping and stuff included... I wish i had stumbled across Len's thread on this site 3 weeks ago, i'd be riding today instead of typing this out!

Thanks Len!

Also, I'm going to post this over on Virago Tech were i am a member so they know to come here should they need a part for an XJ bike or a jet for their XV!

The similarities between the two bikes is uncanny... Ive got an 82 xv920 and 82 maxim.. i have swapped wheels, forks, brake components.. a lot of stuff.. lots of the parts seem identical (rear virago brake is a little bigger)

That doesn't surprise me, and it makes parts easier to find, so im not complaining

 

just received my parts. good prices and an awsome selection of OE replacement and aftermarket parts. could have ordered from Jcwhitney but i'd have gotten universal aftermarket and wasn't even sure if that was right. Thanks for the help Len.

 

Thanks guys!

 

Hey Len,
As usual, thanks for the friendly service and quick turnaround. Doing business with you is a pleasure.

 

Just got my main and pilot jets from Len yesterday, installed this morning, and it acts like a new bike! Thanks Len for the awesome customer service and FAST shipping. If only every vendor was like this!

Thanks again

Dustin

 

Len has the best shop on the market. He will help you through any problem. And as for the shipping it does not get any faster. Len is one hell of a guy.

Thanks,
Joshua

 

Len, I received my package yesterday. Right on the money with the two-day shipping. I'll catch ya next time on the difference in shipping. Looks like I owe you a couple bucks. I've got the master cylinder rebuilt and am waiting for the sealant to cure before I hang it on the bike. That little replacement crystal window for the sight glass is awesome! Going to be a busy day working on the bike.

The wife's excited about her new gas cap for her bike, too.

Thanks, Len. And, as always, great job!

 

Once again - excellent service!

Placed my order on Friday, parts were waiting for me tonight when I got home (Monday)!

 

I was a little embarrassed to be putting an order together that really wasn't much more than an odd collection of screws and bolts, I was worried that I was wasting Len's time!

But nothing but incredibly fast and polite correspondence! And how great was it to get a small box filled with shiny screws in tiny bags perfectly labeled, and to have each one fit perfectly!

Thanks so much!

 

Chacal comes through again! Fastest cross country shipper I've ever dealt with.

My only concern is that I paid less for shipping than the label says it cost. I wonder how he manages to keep that up.

 

Thanks guys! Everyone have a great and safe weekend!!

 

Just received the chrome front fender from Chacal. He was right, it is NEW, not NOS. It is a beauty and got here fast. Awsome job Len!

 

Len, you're a miracle worker. I placed my order on Friday, and here it is, Monday afternoon, and I've got my new fuel line, vacuum line, in-line filter, clamps, and rear brake shoes. Everything looks great - can't wait to get home to the bike and get to work! Thanks!
