Other Reputable Dealers like ProvoScooter?

[Shawn808]

Hi Everyone
I dont know if this is allowed. So moderators please feel free to delete this post if need be.

My question is if there is any other type of online reputable moped/scooter parts dealer like ProvoScooter. I have been searching online and have found many websites, but some of them seem so generic or "fly by night"/scam deals. I was wondering if any of you have ordered from other sites and what was your experiences with them? Or if you know of any other reputable companies online in which to get parts?

Thanks!

Stay away from badmotorscooters.com is the best advice I can give.

BAD BAD badmotorscooter.com is bad

i asked him if he had honda elite sr parts and he said "Go look for your self you idiot."

[King Vino]

Damn ,not quick enough. Thought I was going to be the first to stray sarcastically, yeah Badmotorsports is a quality dealer, LOL (wish I had that devil emoticon.) So in short everyone else sucks but Provo/Lounge.

[Zuma88]

Vtcycles is rude form the times i talk to them.
50cc.nl is a good one but shipping is about 25 dollers

taft speed but they are based in the UK... Never bought there and had hit or miss replies from emails...

So the moral is ERich's the best!

I spent hours on the web trying to find the best info. on parts and and advice
about my zip.

this is the best info and parts on the web for scooters i have seen trust me i looked a long time.

thanks to everyone that runs this site you helped me more than i can say. :D

That's what we strive for.

It's funny, the guys on the yahoo vino club love badmotorscooters and always talk **** about provo... and we love provo and talk smack about badmotor. Just though that was interesting, even though they are wrong. Provo and Erich are the best, trust me. The only reason they don't like him is cuz he doesn't sell the malossi variator.

*** These dudes are pretty good, and also have a forum to answer questions and stuff.***

And that's why those lsoers are in a Yahoo news group and we have a real time forum.

Well I have to admit that i am a little biased seeing as how I own this whole thing, but I had a customer that bought from these guys and had a bad experience. They sold him the wrong parts (mosly because malossi has the part numbers wrong in their catalog), but that just shows the lack of experience. If anyone has had better experiences with them, feel free to post.

I think everyone on here would agree that you run a good shop, Erich. I've been here for well over a year. And I've seen how you conduct business with costumers, and board members. You set an excellent example of how a small business should be run, and it is for that why I as well as many of the other members on this board have such a strong allegiance to Provoscooter.com, the forums, and yourself.

in addition.... Erich just simply rocks!

I want to add...

I heard someone say that they wanted the malossi variator (besides me)... Erich is a malossi parts distributer... just because he doesn't have them sitting on his sheft, doesn't mean he can't get it....


I asked about ordering the MRH malossi set up stuff... He said let him know when and he'd get it on the way...

So if you have something you want.... Shoot him an email and I bet you'll be happy with the results!

Yeah!!! I AGREE WITH THE TERMS ERICH Makes shure you Get The Right Parts!! :D :)

Well this has become quite a popular and well rated thread, so I doubt it's going to be deleted. He's what I've encountered with other dealers.

badmotorscooters .com: never ordered from, because of their reputation.
motorsportscooters .com: they were ok, bit slow, promised a price reduction didn't follow through with it
Simon 2001: Excellent, parts shipped from Osaka, Nihon, no problems, great tech support, even gave me a free Vino key chain gift for ordering. I'd like to see Provoscooter, carry Simon2001 parts as a US distributer.

[Chreaus]

well put!!!!!!


I have had great service from Erich and wish I had more money to buy stuff.
I am hoping to get some stuff from simon2001 also.
I wish Provo had some of those parts. :cool:

[King Vino]

I'd like to see that happen. He'd have an exclusive that would make badmotorscooters and motorsportscooters pull thier hair out!

[Chreaus]

I have seen some stuff from motorsportscooters.
I do know their prices on parts are much higher then PROVO. I like the chrome luggage rack and I admit their taillight assembly is nice.
I have never been to "badmotorscooters" though.


I'll stay away from them!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
