A big thanks to Jeff and the Folks at Z1

I have been ordering parts for my 650 engine and I am floored by the service as always.

Quick responses to me e-mails, helpful answers to my questions. It is always a pleasure; and I can only imagine the pain I am causing Chris ordering $300 worth of $2.00 o-ring and $10 bearings!

Many of the places I e-mailed (for services) I have to fight with to get a response, and when I finally do it is 2 words. I understand folks are busy and e-mails take time, but part of what I want to buy when I purchase bits for a bike is the know how that comes along with it.

I couldn't tell you how many hours I spent talking to Jeff getting advice for the bike.

You guys will always get my business because of how efficient and helpful you are.

Thanks!

no doubt, if there were no Z1E I don't think I would be doing my winter project.

I find them an absolute pleasure to deal with. They are quick on the shipping too.

Z-1 is an excellent source for parts and their customer service is second to none....shopping online after hours
is a big plus also....my stack of receipts grows and grows......

I have to agree, these guys are the best...

They get my business whenever possible too. My only complaint is the shipping peanuts. I hate styrofoam!

I always give them the right-of-first-refusal... and only then try elseware.


Best of success.

agreed on the packin peanuts lol but service second to none.. always. time for one of them airbag machines jeff. i reccomend sealed air..we have one at fujifilm where i work...used to use peanuts till some of our customers started refusing shipments with them. itll save you space and money in the long run

Thanks for the comments.

The packing peanuts work better than the sealed-air packs. We receive a ton of shipments in to us, and many of the sealed pillows deflate in transit - plus items can move between them.

We usually use the foam peanuts not the styrofoam ones - although we will recycle any of those we receive.

The styrofoam ones can disintegrate when used with heavier items - that's why we don't typically use them.

Last year we shipped over 15,000 packages - and had ZERO insurance claims - and only a couple of parts even potentially damaged in transit. The foam peanuts just work...

The chemical expanding foam packs are very good - just too expensive and really not recycleable at all... If we shipped a ton of delicate items, we'd probably use those as well.

i wasnt gonna bring up the peanut thing, but my hatred for those little buggers goes way back ...still deal with them today....
the sealed bags can and do blow out.....i send out complete
computer systems from servers down to optical mice in large triwalls and i use large bubble ,bubble wrap....the large bubbles fill voids quickly when scrunched up and its easy to deal with......

jeff, you ARE a fast typer.....:laugh:

Agree with all of you. I only ordered once from Z1 but it was about $600 worth of stuff. When my package arrived I went straight to the garage (don't bother me honey) and drooled over each and every new shiny part I orderd! Spent the next week installing everything. Parts were excellant quality and will continue to get more parts from them. And yes...... I HATE THOSE FRIGGIN PEANUTS!! LOL After tossing them in the trash I still had a few being kicked around the garage for a month! Sure, my cats love them! :woohoo:
