RE: UPS SUCKS
i ordered an alternator cover gasket and my old bushings around my gas tank were getting cracked and worn so i ordered 2 new rubber bushings that hold the windscreen bracket on. i dropped the bike when i was in cali in the navy and i got a new gasket and got it fixed before i left cali but when i got to texas i couldnt push the button and get it to start the starter motor would just spin so i had to take the alternator cover off and find out what was going on. turns out the guy that helped me replace the alternator cover and all let the gear slip down so it wasnt making contact with the starter gear, but i could pop the clutch and start it, and in fixing that i accidently tore the other gasket so i had to get a new one.

RE: UPS SUCKS
I had a package delivered to the right number but the wrong street. I ended up fighting and fighting only to lose my package and not get reimbersed by UPS. I too, was suposed to contact the original sender, but since it was shipped from a mailboxes etcetera, there seemed to be no accountability. I ended up eating it...screw those guys!

RE: UPS SUCKS
I've found a reliable way of receiving from UPS.
If you've got a tracking number, watch it. Once it arrives in the city just before yours, call your local store and tell them that you have a package enroute and you will be picking it up at their office.
As soon as they open or you feel like it, go down and get your package. Works like a charm and I don't have to mess with waiting for some delivery dude all day long.
I ship a fair amount, but I receive a whole lot more.
