why is this so cheap?
I know it doesn't come with everything. What else is missing here that I don't know about that I would need. Covers.?. Can I use my stock carb and rejet it?

Re: why is this so cheap?
the seller has very good feedback wouldnt have that if he was scaming people all day but it does look to good to be true so i send the seller an email asking what the kit comes with will post up what he replys back with an answer
Re: why is this so cheap?
That what I did and here's what I got...
What I said:
Dear bikesnpawn,
what comes with THIS EXACT kit? Your pics kinda suck they show everything for all your items.
Here's what he said:
Thanks for the compliment on the pictures. They are supplied by the manufacturer (BBR) so we will pass that information on to them. EXACTLY what is supplied with the "Big Bore Piston Kit" is EXACTLY what is shown in the "sucky" picture. If you are having trouble identifying the parts we recommend you don't attempt to install this kit yourself as it could be dangerous and could result in serious injury. For educational purposes, the parts depicted in the said "sucky" picture are a big bore cylinder, a piston, rings, a wrist pin, circlips, a camshaft, and a base and head gasket.
We figured in an ad for a piston, most folks that are shopping for such an item would be able to identify which item in the picture might be a piston. Silly us. Happy Holidays,

So I said:
Hey thanks for the sarcasm, layin' it on a little thick uh. So can you please tell me why I would upgrade to your other "big bore kit w/cam" for $225.00 when I can get "everything" in the "same" pic, cam included in the 85.00 kit? That was my question. Thanks buddy!
happy holidays right back at cha!!
If I'm the moron please tell me because I think this guys' a ******** and I'd love to tell him but If I'm the retard then...oops.
Anyone notice this *** works for "Sally's Motors"

Re: why is this so cheap?
this guy is definately a dick bag. i really dont understand how he list 2 identical kits with a $140 price differance. judging by his reply to your question, i would say he's not the greatest guy to deal with. but, it is a hell of a deal if its true. if you really wanna **** him off, i would contact BBR and let them know that this asshat is sellng their kits waaaaay below retail price. gauranteed he will never sell another product from BBR again.
Re: why is this so cheap?
I just emailed him again asking him how come there's a $10.00 price difference in the shipping costs if "everything" is included.
I was soo pissed when I got his email earlier I was ready to call him directly.
You bring up a good point about getting ahold of BBR!
This guys a shmuck!! I'll let you know how he replies.

Re: why is this so cheap?
I was actually thinkin' of purchasing the $85 kit and having all his emails as back up. Then when ONLY a piston shows up I can be like here's what your buddy BOB said it comes with.

I said:
And If I get "everything" that is included in the pic, then why is the shipping $10.00 more for the $225.00 kit? They both include "everything" in the pic.
These are legit questions that I'd like a real answer to not just sarcastic responses.
Than he has some girl email back:
> The one for $85 has comes with just the piston and ring. The one that is $225 has everything included in the pic. I'm sorry about the "sarcastic" remarks. My boss did not have his coffee yet when he replied to your e-mail. thanks, Courtney
so I said:
Thanks Courtney,
Obviously you know alot more about the products he sells than he does. Again I apologize for using the word "suck". You would think that being a store owner he would a least picture the items he's selling and not all the items grouped together, this is VERY misleading.
Since I have emails from BOB FREY himself that said "EVERYTHING" is included I went ahead and passed this on to others before you wrote back with the correct info. If you guys get sales for the $85.00 kit that people are unhappy about because "EVERYTHING" isn't in their shipment, remember I have emails saying "EVERYTHING" is included from BOB himself.
Courtney thanks again, it was a pleasure dealing with you.
I'm still gonna contact BBR too. This guy doesn't deserve to sell BBR.

Re: why is this so cheap?
What do you think I should do, I was thinking about having a friend buy it for me through his ebay account and then have him bitch about it so I can get a kit with everything for 85.00.
I can't buy it now because of the times on the emails and ****. He'll say I bought it AFTER learning whats really in the kit.

Re: why is this so cheap?
What a waste of F'n time. Now half my sat. is gone and I only got a little bit of light to ride the five-0.
Hey Fab5
I'm still gonna buy that kit from you dude I've just been shopping around on ebay and noticed that too good to be true deal.
I'm still broke but do you have a way of taking credit cards?

Re: why is this so cheap?
i also emailed them and cortney replied back that the kit comes with everything in the pic also got into detail about everything it came with cylinder, gaskets, piston, ect, so i called them and they told me the she had made a mistake you dont get a cam or cylinder with it.
