    Big shout out to Len for his patience with my dozen-odd questions, excellent service and incredibly fast delivery on my hard-to-find carb parts for my 81 xj650! You have a customer for life! (Or at least the life of my bike lol)

    Fastest turnaround time ever. Also, orders are always accurate, impressive since products aren't individually barcoded. And as always, Len provides much-needed knowledge throughout the ordering process.

    Thanks for all you do to keep this community thriving!

    I ordered a spare key from Len @XJ4EVER and he took care of it right away. The key showed up lightning fast even after I screwed up my paypal order! Thanks Len!

    Cheers.

    Len was awesome to work with and helped me out with a handful of issues I asked about. He gave me solid advice and great parts. Props to Len!

    I'm on either my 4th or 5th order from XJ4EVER I am very pleased with Lens service he is very prompt checking out what you want and replying with quotes and what have you. I ordered some carb parts on my last order and he suggested some other parts that I should replace while I had them apart. Great Service!!!
    Thanks XJ4Ever

    Get your parts from Chacal!!! I have been involved with Chacal on multiple orders, and have never been let down. The parts are trustworthy (consistent with their descriptions) and Chacal's customer service (communication via website or email) is legendary. Shipment/delivery has never been a problem. My bike runs as well as it does because of Len.

    Another one here to sing the praises of Len, he was able to track down some extremely hard to find parts for my XJ750RL and have them in my hot little hands. Atlanta to the Barossa Valley in South Australia in just 10 days.

    I said it before and I'll say it again, bloody legend mate. I really appreciate the service that he gave.

    I would not have been able to get my bike on the road without the help from Len at XJ4Ever. He has a wealth of knowledge on these bikes and always has the right parts for your bike. Thank you Len!

    I was just wondering... Could a person build an XJ from scratch by ordering every part that an XJ needs from Chacal?

    I know he has all of them in stock, but am I trying to play god by just thinking this??

    :confused::)

    If you chose the correct model of XJ to build, yes.
    Not very cost-effective to do it that way though.

    I'll take the time to mention what Chacal often remods us of. Buy spares while you can, as you can afford to. There's always something that's newly discontinued.

    Take something as simple as the clutch/brake switches. Used on dozens of Yamaha models for over 20 years, and recently dropped from production.

    That and never take the availability of XJ parts for granted. I’m mechanically restoring a Kz750 M1 for a DD at the moment and I am struggling with even some of the simplest parts. Never realized how good I had it with Len.

    YES, you could. (of course, HE may have to source some of the parts from some of the other parts hoarders.......lol)

    I save every part I replace if it isn't completely wasted.

    Parts arrived as expected. Packed very well, packaged securely, and arrived before I expected. Carbs are now together and functioning. Thanks, Len!

    Once again, Len's service was outstanding. I received a quick reply. Everything I needed was in stock. Thorough instructions and options were clearly communicated. My order arrived ahead of the promised delivery schedule. What more could you ask for? XJ4Ever over-delivered at every step.
