Feedback for Georgefixs Store

[jetmechmarty]

I've been buying stuff from George Fixs Store for a long time. They sell the K&L stuff we often need. I've made some recent purchases and they are good to hand off to USPS immediately. My last order was Sunday night and parts were in my mailbox Wednesday morning. Oh! They covered the shipping! I'm running carb holders from there too.

Cool beans! First thing I hooked my eye on was the CB750 Iggy switch! Put that addy in my favorites.
Thanks, JMM

This is great info Marty! I had never heard of this vendor before - but I will bookmark him.

In our local section of the Canadian Vintage Motorcycle Group (www.CVMG.ca), I am the keeper of the suppliers and vendors list. This is a rather informal, but very useful document that catalogues all the painters, welders, upholstery folks etc. with whom local bikers have had a good experience. If someone runs across a new supplier who does a good job, they simply send me a note with the name, address and contact info of the person and their specialty - and I stick it on the list and send the updated list out to the group.

it occurs to me that we ought to consider having a suppliers list like that on XS650.com…..just keep track of the good guys who help us out.

My first three entries would be:
- Jim: painting and alternator rewinds;
- gggGary: XS650 parts of all kinds;
- Lakeview: XS650 parts and rebuilt bikes;

That sounds like an awesome idea. Id rather give my money to the good folks around here if I have the option available.

Found no search function on the site, and the only application sorting I found was by brand, seems the buyer has to scroll through yea, many Yamaha parts to seek and maybe find. Am I missing something here?

Top left corner Dick. Yeah, it's a little obscure....

Missed that. Thanks!

I checked it out - it appears that he has some interesting stuff!

+1 for George’s. I ordered carb holders on Weds and they were delivered on Saturday. Nice and pliable.

My XS650SK brake master cylinder failed. I ordered a new one on Wednesday morning. Today is Saturday and my rebuild kit arrived this morning via First Class Mail at no additional cost to me. Happy happy

Pete would you be willing to get the ball rolling (I didn't just want to nominate you and ask for a second

It would be nice if he would separate the parts into subcategories for like Yamaha 650xs

I think they sell mostly on eBay. I looked once upon a time and found I could buy cheaper from their website. I navigate it easily enough after the learning curve.

Another great deal with George’s. Ordered fork seals Weds afternoon before Thanksgiving. Arrived Saturday afternoon. 7.25 shipped to my door. Postage on envelope reads $4.50. That’s $3.75 for quality K&L made in Japan seals. Doesn’t get better than that!

Buying all my parts through geoff's, great to deal with and never had a problem.
I do wish he'd expand in the aftermarket/custom side of things though.
