Placed the order sunday night and here they are, new set of pirelli's for the majesty. They used to ship from west coast as I remember. Now they come from Louisville right where the big UPS distro center is. Looks like they are intent on being the number 1 tire store. Best prices too, $115 and free shipping for the 22.5 lbs of tires john

Two Days!!! I ordered one of these from Bike Bandit (love the name) and it came the next day. www.bikebandit.com/bridgestone-molas-ml16-scooter-tireOf course it came from PA, just across the border, but what a trip. It flew to Syracuse, drove down to Binghamton and UPS had it at my door before noon. My wife orders ink from HP. One night she ordered it 8 o' clock from Kentucky and had it by 10 the next morning. Stuff must be getting beamed around the country these days.

I use both Bike Bandit and the Superstore. I guess I prefer the Superstore because their site is more user friendly for me. But yeah, they get a little over the top as far as delivery times. I've never thought "man, if only I had got that battery sooner, little Johnny might have lived!" I think a lot of it is a competition between their distribution centers for bragging rights....and that's a good thing I think.

Too bad Yamaha parts can't get included in the speedy delivery. Last year it took 8 days for an $3 oring set at a local yamaha dealer and would have been the same if I ordered it at a internet dealer. That is one thing that the chinese parts have over the name brand jap bikes and scooters. Chinese parts can be had in 3 days or less with std shipping.
It really chokes me up when a "know-it-all" off the street tells me you can't get parts for them things!
