Default OEM parts delivered quick????

Does anyone know where I could get some oem raptor parts pretty fast? I need two lock washers that hold the gears on the crank and counter balance, and I need them by Friday. Is there a place that is pretty fast with shipping out oem parts?

Thanks

Do any of you guys not shop with your Yamaha dealers from your own area??

Your local dealer can have it the next morning if you order before 11:00AM for the Atlanta region and 1:00PM for the California region and you don't even have to deal with shipping costs.

Dang that's some fast replies.

I usually order parts through the dealer, but it usually takes them about 10 days to get parts if not longer. You must have a better dealer then me.

Are places like Alba quick to get the parts to you?

I guess it all depends on what type of shipping you pick I haven't ordered anything from alba yet but I was planning on it this weekend so I don't know how quick shipping of the oem parts would be

10 days? 7 days?
Sounds like some lazy Parts managers.......or a dealership trying to save a few bucks on his bottomline dollar...... I would ask to speak to the store manager and ask what's up with the delayed parts orders.

A delaership pays about $20 to $50 freight on his entire parts order eah day. Some dealers try to get around this by placing orders once a week and receive the free freight by ordering on Saturdays. They do not tell you this, but that's the deal. I was unaware that any dealers were still using these practices. I haven't heard of it being done since the market explosion started in 1996.

KNOWSALOT is right!! I have never had to wait not even 4 days for my stuff, if I go there and order ANYTHING, its usually there the next day or two. They are pretty fast for being a dealer in my area. Now if I go order some Suzuki parts, I will just wait and kick back until they call me cuz that never shows up no sooner than 2 weeks.
