spent 600 dollars with cheap cycleparts.com and i will never deal with them again. i bought a whole set up to put a plow on my quad . they sent me a power max electric blade lift and it did not work out of the box and the lock switch was broken on the side of it they would not warranty it. so i called cycle country and they are sending me a new one and i have to send the old one back to them. but this is a pain in the butt because i have 3 feet of snow and a very big driveway and my snow blower broke.

Did you check out their terms of service before you placed your order?

Terms of Sale - Cheap Cycle Parts

They say they will not return electrical parts.

I am on your side that this sucks because I have been there with a huge snowstorm and the plow down but it might not be fair to rip them a new one if their decisions are in line with their policies.

I would be more upset with the manufacturer for their QA/QC of their product leaving the factory. However according to cycle counrty's website they are very quality focoused.

In my opinion this is why I like the brick and mortar places are easier to deal with when I have a problem. Would cycle country let you exchange it at one of their other local dealers?

that does suck. I buy my gear on line because its a lot cheaper, but all my hard parts I buy locally. I dont like the wait on shipping, I want to make sure I have what I need and like in your case if something goes wrong I want to be able to go right back and talk to someone in person about the problem, I also like to help keep the local shops in business. Hope everything works out.

That's BS, I would be pissed! Have you spoken to them on the phone? probably some garage seller..lol.

All jokes aside, I would immediately post on their twitter: Cheap Cycle Parts (CheapCycleParts) on Twitter

and also facebook: CheapCycleParts.com | Facebook

Complain, Complain...they will resolve to avoid any bad press.

I will never use them again. I bought a rear grab bar a few years ago from them. They sent me the WRONG grab bar. They would not accept a return, exchange, store credit... absolutely nothing. They left me stuck with a grab bar that I could not use and a $60 hole in my pocket.

That company is the biggest joke on the net, they don't stock anything. You order from them, they turn around and order the part from the MFG and then send it to you.

I think I misunderstood your first post I did not know it was broken I just assumed it was not working. Definately have a case there. It looks like others have had the same experience also. I still think that the best way to get it resolved is to speak to cycle country.

Sometimes too powerful. If they resolved his problem and he forgets to delete his complaints on twitter FB and such. Now the company gets the sh*t end of the stick.

      How did you get into Quads?
      By Mikey69
      Heres my story. Kinda long. I guess I was a late bloomer when it comes to quads. I had never ridden a quad in my life. Rode Dirt Bikes as a kid growing up. Back in Oct of '06 I found a Mustang on craigslist. Took it for a test drive one morning before work. Fast car. 351 Cleveland. I had planned on meeting the guy again after work. For some strange reason thats still to this day beyond me, I stopped in Hillsboro MotoSports on the way home from work. I had 6 Grand on me. There was a left over '05 sitting by the front door. It was on sale for $4999. It was $5499 OTD. I didnt even look at anything else. I knew nothing about quads accept I thought it really looked coool and I had the money in my pocket to buy it. I was sitting on it when the salesman walked up and asked... "Can I help you?" Without hestitation I pulled 60 Ben Franklins outta my front pocket and said "I want this Quad. Load it up in my truck." It was just about dark by the time I drove away from the shop. BTW, I didnt bother to ask my ol lady if I could buy it. LOL. Anyway, I took it by the house and showed her. She was kinda stunned but not mad. We drove over to a friend of mines house and unloaded it. I took it to the field across the street from his house. HOLY CHIT!!!!! I was surprised by the power. I had it for about 2 weeks and took it to Sand Lake. I was there a few hours and rolled it on a banked turn at the top of the bowl right before you get to the one-ways. When it rolled, I flew off and landed on my belly. The quad came bouncing and landed on my back. For a month I couldnt even walk. I was scared of it. I considered trading it for a 250EX. Went back to the shop. The salesman said..."Dude!!! You dont want a 250EX!!! Trust me. Just get used to it" I still wasnt convinced. I put it on craigslist for $4000. Calls were coming in. I had a guy that wanted to come look at it that evening. I decided to take it for one last ride at Browns Camp before I sold it. I was still afraid of it. After about 5 minutes I started feeling comfortable on it again. I decided right then, I loved my Honda 450 and would learn how to ride it instead of selling it. That was late Nov of '06. Work was slow for a Painter in Oregon. My new job everyday? Going to Browns Camp and ridding my Quad. I bought my Girl Friend an '02 Blaster. I rode my 450 for 4-6 hours almost every single day for 3 months. And yes, I know my way around Browns Camp pretty well. LOL. In March I bought her an '06 TRX250EX (Thank God I didnt trade my 450 for one of those) LOL Since then, I have become totally addicted to quads. I love them. Couldnt imagine not owning at least one quad. Luckily I have two. My "07 was $6500 OTD in July of '07. Bought it for my Girlfriend. Traded in her 250 EX. A month later we broke up. So, I wound up with two Honda 450's.

      Suzuki King Quad 700 problem
      By NZrider
      My king quad 700 runs rough when cold then won't start some times but not often when it's hot. And occasionally smoke's a lot when it's cold I'm guessing that's rings but I'm worried unless it's causing the other problems
       
       
       
      All help is appreciated thanks

      Suzuki King Quad - Head Oil Leak
      By jatho
      Has anyone else had an issue on older king quads where the oil would leak from the top of the head (due to a failed gasket) and drip onto the hot exhaust? Mine got so hot one time it caught fire. Just wondering if this is a common issue, as I've seen the same thing happen on multiple bikes that were the same model.

      2014 Suzuki King Quad 750 irs Power Steering
      By mkibbe
      My 2014 750 king quad stalls sometimes when I touch or turn the handlebars,the problem has gotten worse,my machine has 475 miles and is only trail ridden,I have a new factory battery and i have 14.2 volts when the quad is running and 13.3 on the battery when not running,also using a multimeter there is no change in volts when turning the bars until it does stall,If I pull the 40 amp power steering fuse it will not stall.......I've been told its the ECU,Hate to buy one if thats not the problem,but its kinda leaning towards that,,,,,need some opinions.
