My thoughts keep going back to "shady online seller" threads and how you were stupid to think an online seller could provide better service than the brick and mortar stores...American Lifan is the biggest b&m network in the States :roll: and my sketchy online guy still sells parts, $hitty website and all :wink:
GO GRAY MARKET!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :!: SHH it is so quiet you can hear a rice bowl shatter.

If American Lifan is out of stock, how has the local AL dealer near my house been getting new bikes in this past month? He has all the common street legal bikes from the GY-5, Street bike and Honda Trail 70 clone and even some scooters....??
This guy leaves his AL bikes out in the rain all day, for weeks in his car lot. So not only does he charge $2,200 for a GY5 but they are all pre-weathered for the new owner.

Not sure exactly what it means, but for whatever it's worth the American Lifan web site at http://www.americanlifan.com/ is back up again. Could be good news for AL dealers and customers, but time alone will tell..

so far the answer is :
And Mr. Hall..... It looks like your franchise is up for renewal and you have not ordered vehicles in more than 8 months. We send you at least 2 customers a week.... whose products are they really buying? In the morning I will be sending you a new franchise contract outlining your new territory. my response was more than irate i may post it but i want to see what happens

Just to follow up with this issue...
Mr. Phillip Hall did not but a VIN number on his initial parts order from. When he attempted to correct his issue is was ordering a part for a 50cc scooter but put a VIN# for a 150T-6 model. He was told to use "VIN from another bike" because he would have recieved the wrong part otherwise. Mr. Hall is one of the only dealer that finds it difficult to write down a few numbers on a parts order form... Who knows... maybe this is why his parts did not come through? Thanks, Shawn |

Phil... Our Franchise agreements are to be renewed once a year... When was the last time you renewed? This is not a Warranty policy.
You can still get the parts you need for your vehicles, just fill the part order forms out correctly and they will be sent out to you. Thanks, Shawn |

No chance you'd be willing to post the MSO and Parts Order, maybe with the last 6 digits of the serial number missing, or something like? My curiosity is running wild here... I wonder is CoasttoCoast (The Official Canadian Lifan distributor!) would be willing to ship Lifan stuff South of the border? --Vince
