Default "Lifeline" products are junk?

Hey guys! I am so new at this stuff, But here it goes. I have been riding for 35 years this past June, 2010. I just bought my first 1977 Sportster 1000. I was about to buy some products from the company called, "Lifeline"? Some of you guys are telling me that their products are not very good? For 140.00 dollars I thought that was a good price for my "primary" cover. Now I don't know if I should by from them? What do some of you guys think I should do? Sighned... The Wildman499
P.S. Pictures of the bike are coming soon !

How has anybody been telling you anything, since this is your 1st post???

BTW...I have not heard about "lifeline" products. But primary "covers" usually don't look very good.

I've got covers all over my bike (cam, sprocket, primary, rocker). ****in' hate them now, probably one of my biggest regrets.

But that's all personal. I've heard bad things about the quality of Lifeline, but not enough to make a solid judgement.

A customer came in one day with a chrome outer primary from them and it was so warped i could not tighten it down. Yet another came in with one that was for a shovel which wasn't as bad but, it didn't completely cover the whole gasket area. Buyer beware.

OK, maybe I should have asked "How, or where has any of us been telling you this???

If we are giving him info, or advice, it sure would be nice to know how or when that was.

Even if he/she had 1000 posts, I'd still like to see where that advice came from.

Would that make you feel better???
