Just had another let down on the DRZ parts.

Swingarm bearings and wheel bearings that I ordered are not in stock with supplier that listed them as in stock and they're no longer available. Linkage bearings are available but will take a few weeks to get from warehouse in France.

They're refunding me but will take a couople of weeks for money to come back to me. Again!!!

Everything I order for this bike is a fail. Suppliers are listing stock they don't have and can't get left, right and centre. Getting very very fed up with being out of pocket for weeks at a time and the job dragging on as the bike sits under a tarp in bits in the garden. I can't move it out of the way of the rain and cold as it has no swingarm, rear wheel etc attached. It was meant to be a bike to enjoy at this time of year. I'll be lucky if it's back together by the summer.
