Wow that was a bigger than normal responce to a tiny question!

You'll soon learn that we KB'ers like to express our opinions, talk crap (or maybe that's just me) and generally tell the whole world what we think of everything.

Did you know that in the UK jandals are referred to as flip flops? Makes it kind of amusing when someone with two left feet then has to ask the shop keeper for a pair of flip flips don't ya think?

Cheers for that!
Are haynes manuals just as good, or better than the origional manuals? They are a bit cheaper... Suits my budget better anyway

Sometimes Haynes manuals are better. OEM manuals are written assuming you are a mechanic and say things like remove the whoflungdonit whereas a haynes manual will tell you how to remove the whoflungdunit and also tell what the hell a whoflungdunit is.......

I built a new front end for their site about a year ago, but the implementation of their new inventory control system has delayed deployment.
They know it sucks. An appology on Chris's behalf.
An ecommerce facility will be available eventually.
As far as commitment to customer service goes, You won't find a more commited bunch.
They make errors and screw ups sure, but let he who is without fuck up cast the first aspersion - the people at motomail are my friends, try real hard and have my respect.

JMO - I don't think they would make enough volume out of online sales to cover costs and have told them that. I worked in the offices of www.flyingpig.co.nz as it crashed and burned. I say be vewy vewy careful. But they are pushing on

We all love to talk crap, especially those who only have to make ten or so posts to become a whore

They may be your friends but reality is that the world is getting smaller and items like this are more easily sourced from oversea's sites from the comfort of your own living room. This may be just one sale lost and there are bound to be others. How much does that cost them??

Chris and his staff have my respect too.
They stand behind what they sell and have replaced an item for us when it was faulty.
Motomail have a very good range in the shop, to look through.
If I want to buy anything , I have to be able to touch and hold it. A tactile person, that's me.
And if it is my bike I might even give it a pat.
Oh, OK , occassionally I have been known to give it a cuddle but that was when we were separated for a long time.

I wasn't meaning to sound prickly - All I'm meant is they are good folks and all keen riders - and true - I don't buy all my kit there either.
I prefer AMPS for leatherwear etc.

Not only is their website crap, but they're expensive and prone to messing your order up.

True, but when they have a sale, then the prices are good. Must be greed that maintains such high prices, because the sale prices are so different, and they still make money
