    Thanks for my maxim cable. Got it in 3 days. Great fit & fast service, now I can actually find parts for this machine. Rarely need 'em tho. 50K & going strong. Thanks Len!

    xj4ever is the best online parts site i have ever worked with. Len has the fastest email responses and the service is amazing. Atlanta, GA to Spokane, WA in 2 days. My local Yamaha dealer still hasn't gotten me my parts after 8 days. I am a Harley-Davidson Mechanic by trade but have worked on everything. I have never had such a successful online ordering experience. I will recommend this site to all XJ re-builders and custom bike builders. 35 year old bikes still have a chance

    Thank you xj4ever

    I have been in a remote location so this is a little late due to no internet service. I have ordered parts from XJ4Ever since I found this website about 8 or 9 years ago, getting parts for my 550 Maxim. I always get the correct parts, with fast shipping, and the correct installation data/pictures/instructions. Never any problems. My current project is an updated electrical fuse block (the complete installation kit). I have my tool tray modified per the print. I just need to solder in my wire connections and mount the fuse block and I'm done. Len has a lot of useful maintenance information that is very helpful on his website. He is my single "go-to" source whenever I need something. I haven't been to my local Yamaha dealer in years since anything that I ever needed was half the time not available, or the parts person was not knowledgeable enough to find what I needed. I stopped wasting my time fighting metro traffic to stand in line at the Yamaha dealer since I had lost all confidence in getting the correct part or any part at all without waiting 2 weeks for it to arrive, and then having to fight traffic again to pick the items up. I order the parts I need through XJ4Ever.com, Len double checks my order against my bike model, and the parts arrive in my mailbox in a few days. That's what I like!!!! TJ in Virginia.

    Once again Len killed it! Got my order in 9 days to Ontario Canada! The exchange was a bit of a hit, but I know I have the right parts and support with them if I need it!

    Thanks again Len!

    The exchange hit is probably still cheaper than gas and your time
    Hats off to Len he is a master partsman

    Not really when 200 USD is 325 CAN, but it's near impossible to get certain parts in Canada. And like I mentioned, Len will get us the right parts.

    Chacal is the guy to go to for parts. Very Helpful and patient with all the questions that i asked and even after my shipment arrived I still had questions that were answered within the hour.
    I will be returning for more specialty parts and any other impossible part to fine.

    The best!! totally recommended.
    Thank you

    Have used this site a couple of times and can find parts for my 85 maxim here that I can't find anywhere else, I have also asked some technical questions and always had a impressive answer, I often asked myself after talking with these guys, what is your work history, lots of knowledge there...

    I ordered a set of SS brake lines for my 1996 XJ600 from Len. They fit perfectly on my European bend bars and stock master cylinder. He threw in a free set of crush washers and was very communicative during the whole process. A+, 5 stars, would buy again.

    Couldn't ask for a better sales rep quite a depot of knowledge.
    I just ordered a carb rebuild kit on Thursday morning and here it is on Saturday.
    Not sure where his parts come from but I am located on the Pacific Coast.

    Len,
    I rereceived the carb shafts seals and washers and the new butterfly screws. Everything was perfect and installed perfect. What huge difference it made. More vacuum now the petcock even works with the new found vacuum. Well work the money. If your doing your carbs replace the seals. Makes tuning a lot easier.
    Thanks again and I will be back.

    Needed some carb parts. Didn't have all the specifics but I gave this seller some details and he promptly helped me out. I'm confident I got what I need and the response time is great!

    Len hooked me up with the right parts, got em shipped to Calgary, AB in 8 days. Perfect fit, awesome customer service.

    Too bad the exchange rate is such a PITA, but that's sadly outside of his control.
