so offiering a tachometer speedo cluster is kind of cool....

the other thing you didn't mention is that he (or she?) offers us on chinariders a discount many times doesnt he?
In these "Bruce Jenner" days we're not allowed to speculate about gender.. But apparently you missed the time when Tako was selling kits for the stock carb. Anytime someone posted anything about a carb, even if they had upgraded to a vm26 or Nibbi he would instantly be on the post 15 minutes later spamming his wares. It actually became a steady joke on here. "Spam coming in 15 minutes" people would say.

Incase things are not clear - EITHER style is set up and suitble for HAWK 250, or TBR7 or CSC TT250 or Storm or other if at all possible.....

Somehow things are not clear..? first couple pages shows pin outs that I change too so it suits that bike and can change to others if needed etc for "as plug n play" as is possible....

Due to the worldwide virus shipping has been very slow. Very few passenger planes are flying worldwide so post isn't moving much on planes but rather by boat (slow boat from China).

Some items leave for JFK in the USA and these tend to be fast (8-12 days), most items are going to L.A. and these are taking 5-6 weeks to arrive during this epidemic.

If you choose to purchase you are aware things will take time and do not email me complaining the items seems lost etc.

DHL or Fed Ex is an option but also limited and very expensive, I am giving all options and truthful info that I possibly can, stay safe stay home and keep the social distance to reduce deaths.



Below is common WITHOUT this worldwide shut down.

Common shipping times from previous sales were:

EU/U,K around 6-12 days

USA from 8 – 25 days, the odd package was 30 days, most where 12 – 18 days

These are a guide not a guarantee of shipping times

Hmm, that's interesting. I'm currently in France, and I've gotten stuff quicker from China than from Amazon! What a strange world we're living in.

It may depend what city in China it starts from...
I had stuff take 6 weeks lately and 15 items just not reaching the USA yet and was sent early March...

There are just no flights so packages just bank up do to no space to fly them out.

FWIW I ordered mine direct from NzBrakelathes on the 26th of March and he provided a tracking number same day.... It (unsurprisingly) has not hit the USPS yet..... It will though... eventually....

It’s looking like 1-2 months due to nearly no planes worldwide
Other option is add $30 for fed ex etc

It’s all horribly slow and stuff sent March 1st not in USA yet
