    He said he would cover return shipping. I waited all day for UPS as he stated and no one showed. Wasted a whole day. He never answers my emails or phone calls. I still have not heard back from him and what I got from the only email he ever sent is that I am on my own or basically go fuck myself. Filed a complaint with VISA and BBS. I just spoke with the painter and he stated he has never heard anything good about Beasley and that he agrees his product is garbage. He said that he wished that I would have asked him first before I purchased. He stated it will cost me an additional $500 to get the body work corrected. My season is over and ruined.

    I think I'm done and my come back to racing is also.

    So sick of all of these scammers today. From contractors to car dealerships to eBay, Insurance, etc. Nothing but scum bags out there who take advantage of people to fill their greedy pockets.

    I quit!

    Is he still shipping his bodywork with a bunch of religious literature in the box? That always made me smile.

    To the original poster, if you are gonna call it quits on your comeback because of some iffy bodywork then I don't know what to say. It seems really sad. It'll look a lot worse after your 1st crash.

    "I quit"??? Are you kiddin' me? This is not an option! Don't get mad, get even.
    You have recourse, as some have pointed out here. If you are not familiar with how to go about resolving this to your advantage, just ask. And remember:

    Thanks all. Appreciate the positive words. That is why I want to come back to race WERA again. Some of the best people I ever met. I really miss my weekends at the track with everyone. Always a great experience. Some of my best memories. I always remember how happy and excited I was every Thur or Fri getting ready and heading out to the tracks. Even when something went wrong, it was still a cool weekend. Driving all night, getting home at 300am just so I could make it work a few hours later. It was all worth it. I was a part of something special. Being a motorcycle road racer has always been one of coolest things someone could do. I love the sport since I was 4 years old watching the occasional race on TV in the 70's that would come on. I always knew that I would do it myself someday. I've learned so much from it and it makes you a better person. This dude is not one of us.

    Sent another email. Still nothing. Lets see what VISA says.

    I hope to see all of you soon.

    Thanks everybody. :beer:

    With all the hoopla - please post photos of the potentially career ending bodywork... WERA deserves that much, for a manufacturer that hasn't fought back on the beeb. If it is so bad, show us...This has been a very one sided story.

    3 people and zero pictures/evidence.... I suspect Beasley might not be all he claims :Pop:

    I painted a race tail from beasley for an FZR400 a few years back.....I wouldnt buy it
    just from looking at it....made me wonder if it had always been like that, or just the 400, or gone down hill....
     
  10. FYI Armour bodies make FZR400 & 600 bodywork, excellent quality, great fit.
    ( not associated , Just used there bodywork

    Isn't there an automatic $500 insurance policy on UPS shipments? Perhaps you can get your money partially refunded.

    No the season is not over. The bodywork may be crap but I've used Beasley (and yes it is cheap in quality and price compared to, say, Sharkskinz) but I'll bet it is usable. Extra sanding and it'll paint up too. Just run it and get to the track.
    I mean, if I cried that my marriage is over every time I find my wife in the sack with some other guy - I'd have been divorced maybe 40 - 50 times. Moral of the story: live with it. Swallow the bitter pill. Make the best of it.

    and again

    and again

    The last one doesn;t show it well but the race tail is longer on one side than the other and won't line up on the bike. Its actually angled along the back when mounted on the bike.
