    Everything I ordered came in fast. All the parts were great and in excellent condition. Thanks you Len. You have me now as a permanent customer. And I'll use word of mouth to my advantage.

    Hey Len
    Thanks for the order, and help. The parts were shipped and received quickly,Its hard to find certain parts for these bikes and without this forum and all the parts you have some of us would be lost. I would recomend that if anyone needs parts to deal with XJ4ever !!

    Thanks again Paul

    I looked for a link and did not find one. I tried xj4ever.com and that did not work. Does someone have a link? I'm just starting work and a 1983 XJ750 Maxim and any help I can get would be great.

    Hi Len,
    just to let you know, that I got the break pads. What a fast service !! Now if the government would'n stick its finger in it the cost, it would have been good too. Custom and gov. tax and provincial on top of it all. From tax and death you just can't get away. :D :D

    Just to keep my joy in thread for Len.

    Len (Chacal) was great in helping me figure out what parts I needed for my bike, what I should (and shouldn't) spend my money on, and took great time and care going over my list with me.

    Shipping was great (got items within 3 days), knowledge level was great, all around - you can't go wrong with dealing with this one!

    Thanks for all the help Len!! You'll be hearing from me soon for more parts ;-P

    We had lots of extras that day we were wanting to get rid off....... :D

    But I'll talk to the guys in the back and bring it to their attention. They're supposed to save those for the fragile items. Thanks for bringing it to my attention!

    Carbs are coming together nicely thanks to Len... Another happy customer from the otherside of the world.

    I just wish I could get the same level of service everywhere I shop.

    Just like everyone else, I received my order within days. The best part was the price for my alternator brushes from Len was a good deal less than the price my Yamaha dealer quoted me. Our group is lucky to have such a resource as Len.

    Hi Len,

    I received my YICS tool and the port clean out tools on Thursday... great tools to have, and fast response to e-mail questions and fast shiping.
    The YICS tool worked great and I have the carbs tuned up the best they have been in years. I tried the homemade YICS tool and it just was not going to work.

    Thanks for being the source for all of these great tools !

    WOW. Ordered over the holiday weekend, shipped Tuesday. I just finished unpacking them (Thursday). Super communication, very helpful. As much as I don't want to buy more parts, I know I will. And I'll order everything I can from Len. You've got it down to a science.

    You got me the parts, now the ball is in my court, I've got to install them before the big ride! Thanks again!

    I needed carb parts for a Turbo Seca I am working on; the bike's owner and his former mechanic/"advisor" both told me "Good Luck", as parts were no longer available for the BS30 Mikuni. Not only did Len hook me up, he gave me the options between factory Mikuni and repop (aftermarket) parts (at basically half the cost), the parts are in my hands as I speak after only 2 days, and service and communication were excellent! I had tons of questions; Len had tons of answers....when I needed them! I would recommend him to anyone on this forum; check with Len FIRST before you waste time searching on other websites. Truly first-class and I'm looking forward to doing a lot more business with XJ4ever!!

    I too have been doing bussiness with Chacal. Communications are unbelievably fast, delivery also. What is much more important in the long run is that we had a miscommunication (more my fault than Len's) and I got the wrong part. Return and refund were arranged so fast that it made my head swim. I have NEVER been so tickled with a company. Wish I had found him years ago as I drag old bikes back from the dead as a hobby. As a matter of fact I just bought another one for a winter project and will probably have much need of many more parts.

    Hey Cap'nKirk,
    How is your kid doing with that Zook? I found one of them sunk in a dirt shed floor three years ago. Took me four months to restore it and I sold it to my kid. He is loving it!!!! But now he want's to sell it to one of his friends and buy one of the 650 Maxims that I am working on.

    Well, he's sort of stuckfor this season. He insists on doing a total resto on it, rather than just "get it running" and so there you have it. (I probably woulda done the same thing!!) Maybe next year......

    I just had a similar experience; ordered a grunch of parts, one of them being a brake switch. Went to reassemble the master cylinder, something didn't look right. Sent pics to illustrate the problem, and asked what I might be doing wrong. Next thing I know, he overnighted the correct switch, despite my assurances that I could wait a few days.

    That's Len for you.

    Thanks guys for your patience and understanding when we make the inevitable "small or big mistake" on this end..........I'll always stand behind and take responsibility for our mess-ups and try to straighten them out quickly and fairly!

    I sent Chacal an email late last week asking about the bolt/valve assembly for the oil filter unit. He sent me back a complete list of OEM and aftermarket parts. I highly recommend going with the aftermarket bolt/valve because the bolt head is larger than stock, and I was starting to strip the hell out of the bold head trying to get the dang thing off.

    Placed an order Saturday evening and the parts were sitting in my mail box today. Thank you so much, you've got yourself a new loyal customer!

    I've ordered from XJ4ever several times and I have been very pleased with the shipping, service and quality of the parts sent. Thank you for supporting our bikes with such exceptional service and top notch products.
    I'll be ordering more soon and I await the online site for more XJ parts!
