This "back order" thing drives me nuts - I have had the same issue with BikeBandit - I have only ordered from them twice - and both times the order took two weeks because one item was not in stock. If they don't have the parts, why do they offer them for sale - or, at least, tell me they are out of stock. Without doubt, Z1 are THE BEST - orders are filled quickly and I do believe they stock everything they sell!

I bought a couple of parts from them almost two years ago (before I learned about Z1). I "think" they are located in Canada - but they also took ages to ship my parts - in the end I called them (they answered) and was told one part was back-ordered. I did eventually receive my order, but have never used them again.

Bike bandit is a drop shipper. If you order OEM Kawasaki parts, you will get that from everyone. They never stock OEM parts they special order them when you order from them. Your local Kawasaki dealer will do the same thing. I use either Bike Bandit or Ron Ayers for all of my OEM parts. And Bike Bandit for most of my after market parts. Over the last 4 years I have put in about 50 orders to Bike Bandit and the back orders were very few and far between. Most of the time the OEM parts have been discontinued, which they will not find out until they try to order the part from Kawasaki. This is why I first find the status of the part on the Kawasaki web sight before I try to order it from anyone. What I love about Bike Bandit is, that at any time you can look up any past order you have ever made from them. This makes it very nice if you want to reorder something.

I missed out on adding something to one of my orders once and emailed Rob about it but it was just after the July long weekend so he was flooded and missed my message so he offered to pay the shipping for the part.
Just today I needed a gasket that wasn't listed on the site and since I had an order going out today Jeff threw it in the box for free. Great guys!

I swear to God, it's like I live in a trailer of common sense, and stare out the window at a tornado of stupidity.
