    Any hope? lol

    So anyone think there's any hope that a bearing kit from arizona could reach Maryland by friday night at the latest? I'm supposed to go riding this weekend and I tore my R down to swap the frame out with a better one I have, and now i'm waiting on swing arm bearing kit to get here. Apparently it wasn't shipped untill this morning and i bought them on sunday morning.

    I actaully paid extra on the shipping and requested expediated shipping. Apparently the guy didn't read my message because he refunded my extra money and sent them priority USPS.

    I guess they'll never get here in time, and I'll either be not riding or stuck on my Kawasaki KE100. That'll suck.....*sigh*
    And that's the rest of the story. ~ Paul Harvey

    If they didnt ship out until this morning then they have a better chance of not making it than anything else. Sometimes shippers can suprise you though, I order stuff from Cali. that makes it here in 3 days sometimes instead of 5 like its supposed to take.

    USPS Priority can surprise you! Don't you have a local parts place that carries Pivot Works or Moose bearing kits?
