I apologize if this is old news as I have not been a very active member. I just ordered a compensator for my 2007 street glide from Baker on the internet. I forgot about the 10%discount for forum members that I thought we received. I just called Baker and explained that I had ordered a compensator and forgot about the discount for forum members. The person I spoke to was not sure and said she would check and call me back. I received a call back and was told that Mark said there is no discount for compensators, just other parts. Though I did not get a forum member discount, I was very impressed with the politeness and respect I received from the company. Bakers employees are an asset to their company. I will be buying from Baker again. I just thought this might be of benefit to other members who thought they would get a discount when ordering a compensator from Baker. Thanks, Rudy

 

There are various economic reasons to discontinue a discount policy, especially in the present economic climate. Rest assured, Mark will treat you right no matter what the current conditions are.

 

After looking at the Baker site and others I ordered one from JP with a discount of about $50.00 with the gold club membership.

I was told 11-14 days out; today is day 15 and I'm still waiting. At the time it was not a problem as I still had to shop for clutch hub and bearings etc.

I did however get the Baker primary tensioner cheaper from JP too, it's sitting on the bench waiting...

Is Baker still behind in shipping the compensator?

 

Ordered a compensator & rotor from Baker. got both items in same box in 3 or 4 days. Part of that time was a weekend.

 

Thanks you for your kind words. Yes the forum discount applies to everything but the compensator ( I know it sucks, but it's not my call so don't beat me).

 

JP just ordered more, they are going through them pretty quick. We do have parts shortages here and there but normally its no more then a week. Not defending J&P or making excuses for them but they just went through a huge warehousing move so I'm sure it's not easy.

 

This morning I saw J&P has a banner on their page when you go to check out that it is taking 3-5 days to fill orders. So that is 3-5 on top of what the shipping option is.

 

Please don't get me wrong. I am in no way complaining about not getting a discount. I was just trying to inform the forum of the change. I have received much more from this forum and Mark than I could ever give in return. I was so impressed and pleased with the people on the phone that I was not disappointed in not getting the discount. The people at Baker are outstanding! I will do business with them in the future and will refer people to them. Oh, and my part has already been shipped out today after ordering on the weekend. LONG LIVE THE FORUM!

 

Eastern performance had mine here in 2 days at a small discount. But as was said. Mark and the Baker crew are nothing but professionals.

 

Yep, Mark is a straight up Dude.
