Ya, I've heard some have had horrible results from JMC. 
I have one of their arms on my KZ. I ordered it over the phone with a number of custom additions to it. I was told 4 months, but it took 12 months! I was in a panic a few times during that time, but I managed to speak to someone there who calmed me down. I finally got it and I have to say, it was worth the wait. It fit perfectly and is everything I expected and more.
I believe others have not been pleased with the end product, but my overall experience was a good one. I just wish they would be more up front with an accurate delivery date. :huh:
