i really love my 500xt everything about it except one thing. why does it take 2 to 3 weeks just to get the simplest of parts. i know florida is a ways from canada,but why so long. i didn't do myself any favors hitting a tree last weekend at 30 mph either. but with the 1000.00 in parts i just ordered,i hope i'm not 60 before they get here. anyone else having this much trouble geting there parts or is it just me. or am i the only one to take a bike with 50 hours on it to climb trees? lol live and learn

 

What a coinsidence.... i ordered a new CDI cuz mine fried- today i found out it's going to take at least another week before i get it because can-am has focussed too much on manufacturing/assembling quads, and now there are almost no replacement parts left over to ship to the dealers..... so if i want a cdi- i have to find a dealer that has a ds250 in stock and convince him to sell me the cdi off that one and postpone the opportunity to sell the quad......

by the way- the cdi was ordered 2-3 weeks ago- its been sitting in the shop for almost a month- all for a stupid little black box

 

thanks for the info. i was wondering about that myself. i'm sure things will get beter in the future(i hope). still don't think i went wrong with my choice of bike and what i do with it. if i had a real racer i'd probably have a few broken bones i'm sure thanks again.

 

I have no problems getting parts. I go to Any Time Power Sports in Sacramento, CA. They usually get my parts in 2-5 business days. I have had only good luck with them and they are the best price in the area.

 

thanks for the info . already ordered my parts but checked out there web site ty for the info.i'm going to try to take it easier,but they may come in handy ty

 

this is the first time they are slow though- my nerf bars and some replacement parts that were melted from touching pipes were in a few days after i ordered

just blame it on the new plants who assemble our quads now- you know who im talking about....

they should really do a better job........

 

I have some stock parts for a DS250 that I don't need and I'd like to sell. I bought 2 DS250's to customize. Here are the parts. I'm fully negotiable on prices. I want you to get my parts quicker and cheaper than you could through a dealer.
