Default Busters motorcycle accessories

Phoned them today, to place an order.

Got through no problem.

Said 'I'd like to order some items'

'What is it you want', came the reply in a tone and manner that I thought rude and very abrupt.

It was like this the whole way through the phone call.

When I asked about a rear Goodridge brake line he said 'the current delivery time is 20 days' no apology for the long wait. So I didn't bother ordering this.

Now the guy I delt with had obviously got out of bed the wrong side or was having a bad day. But the usual pleasantries of placing an order were entirly dispensed with. Not one please or thank you in the entire conversation.

So I'm sorry Busters & M&P I won't be placing any orders with you again.

Went round to my local shop, who can be a bit haphazard in getting stuff in. When I asked about the brake line I was told it would probably be here next Tuesday.

Morale is use your local shop or get an Arselocke on the end of the line

They're pretty useless. Sold me the wrong product and then insisted it was me who was lying to them. Wtf?

Don't like them. Slow delivery for a high price
