Title: Waiting
Post by: jmonster on May 25, 2011, 03:59:46 AM
Hi guys,

Just wondering, is it normal to wait 2 months (and counting) for NFI to supply a set of termi slip ons for a monster (1100S)? Are they usually this slow or am I just impatient?

Yes.  it is normal to wait up to 3 months or longer for anything from NFI. Now I know sometimes it takes that long to get something from the factory in Italy but where do the termi slip ons come from?

Not that I've ever ordered anything from NFI/Frasers but yes as Heather said ordering and waiting is sometimes up to 3 months if it's not in stock here or in Italy.

Remember the factory sometimes takes it's time for things that are of less importance.

Yep, delays are the norm, 8 weeks just to get the DP Tail Kit, 4 weeks for a tank protector *sigh*

But they think the wait adds to the cachet of the brand [roll]

Have you already paid for them??? If not i would cancel and source elsewhere...

I bought a set from commoto for a 696 for a grand cheaper than buying here.

Ordered on a Thursday and they were on my doorstep the following Wednesday ;D
