I JUST WANT TO LET EVERYONE IN THE MOTORCYCLE WORLD KNOW TO BEWARE OF ANY DEALINGS WITH CRESCENT CYCLES IN GRANITE QUARRY, NORTH CAROLINA. THESE GUYS ARE A SCAM AND WILL GET YOU FOR SOMETHING IF YOU DEAL WITH THEM. I DONT EVEN HAVE ENOUGH ROOM TO EXPLAIN FULLY MY ORDEAL WITH THEM BUT I WILL BREAK IT DOWN IN A NUTSHELL. THEY OFFER A CHROMING SERVICE. I SENT THEM VIRTUALLY EVERY PIECE YOU CAN UNBOLT TO BE CHROMED OFF OF MY GSXR. THERE SUPPOSED 10-14 DAY TURNOVER IS A JOKE. 4 WEEKS (WHICH REALLY IS EXPECTED FROM MOST REPUTABLE SHOPS) LATER WHEN I GOT MY PARTS BACK, I WAS MISSING SEVERAL PIECES. AFTER GOING BACK AND FORTH WITH AVOIDED PHONE CALLS AND SUCH, HIS RESOLUTION WAS TO SEND ME A SET OF CHROME WHEELS UPFRONT ALONG WITH MY MISSING PARTS WITH THE PROMISE I WOULD SEND MY CORE WHEELS BACK. THE WHEELS/PARTS COME AND THE FRONT IS BENT AND THE REAR HAS BEEN CURBED AND VERY POORLY REPAIRED PRIOR TO CHROMING, AND GO FIGURE STILL NONE OF MY MISSING PARTS. I CALL AND TALK TO THESE "TOP NOTCH PEOPLE" AND HE SAYS TO SEND HIM MY CORES AND THE DAMAGED RIMS AND AS LONG AS THEY ARE THE ONES WITH HIS ENGRAVING ON THEM, HE WOULD SEND ME ANOTHER SET ALONG WITH MY MISSING PARTS, AGAIN. UPON INSPECTION, OF COURSE THERE IS NO ENGRAVING SO I KNEW WHERE THAT WOULD HAVE GOT ME. SO AFTER MONTHS OF BICKERING, I NOW HAVE REPLACED ALL MY MISSING PARTS, AND I HAVE A JUNK SET OF CHROME RIMS. I ALMOST FORGOT TO MENTION THE BEST PART. IF YOU GO TO DO ANY BUSINESS WITH THESE "TOP NOTCH PEOPLE" YOU WILL SEE THAT THEY ONLY USE UPS OR FEDEX. I USED THE USPS (US POSTAL SERVICE) WHEN I SENT HIM STUFF, WHICH HE COMPLAINED ABOUT. I RECIEVED A LETTER IN THE MAIL FROM THE LOCAL POSTMASTER IN HIS TOWN SUGGESTING I TAKE WHATEVER BUSINESS I DO WITH CRESCENT CYCLES ELSEWHERE BECAUSE HE HAS HAD SO MANY ISSUES WITH THOSE PEOPLE THAT THE USPS WILL NOT SHIP ANY OF THERE ITEMS OR HAVE ANY DEALINGS WITH THEM. IF MY STORY AND ISSUES WITH THESE "TOP NOTCH PEOPLE" DONT DETER YOU AWAY, HOPEFULLY THIS WILL. I THINK THAT SAYS ALOT WHEN YOUR LOCAL POSTMASTER WONT EVEN DEAL WITH YOU. WELL I HOPE THIS HELPS SOMEONE AVOID THE PROBLEMS AND I AM NOT EVEN SURE IF THEY USE EBAY, THEY MAY HAVE BEEN BOOTED OFF OF HERE ALREADY. IF YOU LIVE IN THE GRANITE QUARRY, NC AREA AND YOU KNOW THESE "TOP NOTCH PEOPLE", TELL THEM I STILL PLAN ON STOPPING BY TO GET THE REST OF MY PARTS.
