Beware when buying from J & P Cycles

after talking to a rep from Progressive I ordered 11 Inch 412 shocks for my Sporster from the link on the Progressive site to J & P Cycles .

The 11 Inch 412`s were not better than the stock shocks maybe even rode worse with them on it .
I contacted J & P Cycles and got told I had the wrong shocks for my bike by customer service rep and was told there was nothing they could do about it so I asked to speak to a supervisor well after a lengthy go around with him he checked with his tech guy and said that I had the right shocks for my bike but that if I had wanted a smother ride I should of ordered longer shocks.

so I asked about exchanging the shocks for a different set and was told they could not do that since the Shocks had been mounted.. I inquired about the 100% satisfaction guarantee and was told that only applies to parts that have not been installed so beware if you buy anything from them as the do not truly offer 100% satisfaction guarantee ..

 

Didn't J&P file for bankruptcy a while back?

 

Didn't John die?

 

Not sure on that one. If they did, they somehow managed to find the cash to buy out Motorcycle Superstore which I had bought ALOT of stuff from.

Yes he did, of cancer from what I've read. Sad...

all I know is if you buy parts from J & P Cycles and you mount them even for test fit your stuck with them ..

 

Sorry man, sucks. When they were family owned they were great.

 

Try Revzilla next time. I've done a few purchases and they seem good. Haven't had to return anything, but they may be better. Their web site says:

 

Always check return policies... they are posted somewhere...buyer beware...I’ve never ordered from J&P because I’ve never found a better deal there.

 

Revzilla, Dennis Kirk, Powersport Superstore, Phat Performance, Jake Wilson/Riders Domain, Bike Bandit, Sport Bike Track Gear, Boardtracker HD, eBay, Amazon.

No reason to ever do business with J&P...
