Ok I am new here, From the ZRXOA board in the U.S.

[RUDEDOG]

Wanting info on Morikawi Man. He is posting unreal parts for sale and unreal low prices. Just checking on who or what anybody has bought from him.
I will fill out my Profile stuff and avatar stuff later, just looking for info now.
Thanks and Ride Safe

Dog
Welcome to the site.
Moriwaki man is a ZRX400 owner based in Japan, who just happens to have a couple of tuning shops nearby. A few members here are currently dealing with him over different parts, and everything seems to be going smoothly. I don’t think you should have any qualms over dealing with him.
I don’t know how the dollar/yen exchange is working for you, but some of the stuff he is posting seems mighty cheap.

[jam]

There's no need to worry about anything, the parts are far better prices out in Japan than anywhere else, don't know about import duty in the states or anything. But he's straight as are the parts. Be nice to have an introduction before you start asking questions about the integrity of another member though, I thought it rather rude to be honest, but maybe that's just me.

[REXER]

I thought it rather rude to be honest

Did you see his username ;)

In my view anyone dealing with money up front on the internet should ask as many questions as they like.
He was asking who had bought from him and what they got, I know what you mean but he didn't come here asking if anyone been done.

Just my opinion, nothing against any member of ZRXOC or ZRXOA.

[kcearl]

Yeah Rude wheres your fricken intro :mut:


Pal explains it all...contact Moriwaki Man on the OA, I think Unreasnbl said he'd already set up a user account......



:kcearl:

[waratah]

Unreasnbl said he'd already set up a user account......



What's parts is Unreasnble selling?:crazy:

[Unreasnbl]

I'm not selling, I'm buying. I had asked Mori to come to the US site and offer us the same stuff he offers for you good folks. Those Blue Brembo calipers were the last straw! I simply did the invite … Mori set himself up on the OA

Craig just wants to be sure Mori is on the up-and-up.

Craig has a red 1200R and a green 1100R. He has been the voice of RED on the OA for years. Last year he purchased the green one after one of our folks went down on another bike and died. He got it from the brother of Brett (Swwwinger on the OA). Craig is a good rider, fast. He now leads the Rainbow Coalition on the OA. He’s still the voice of Red.

[ZRXMAN01]

Oi,
Greg Couch from the ZRXOA in the states here....

Mori dropped in on the OA with all sorts of aftermarket parts offers from Japan.

Rude was merely checking to see what sort of dealings you have had with him.

Lots of really cool parts there for the ZRX that never make it to the states....
Most of our (My) sources have dried up for getting anything quickly and reliably.

Any insight you might have would be helpful.

Cheers,

Greg

[oakspeed]

ive bought from him without any problems.
rather decent of him, as he does this in his OWN TIME,
without payment for doing the running around.
very trustworthy.

[ZRXMAN01]

Excellent!
Thanks for the comments and recommendation...

Now about those Ohlins front forks, carbon fiber bodywork, and Nissin brake calipers......

:drool: :drool: :hmm:

[dimora]

It's an invasion!

Welcome to the UK side of things, guys.

The guys here are great, and their sense of humor is priceless.

You'll bump into Esornivram over here too.

I sourced my 1200S fairing from TallAndy, another great guy.

Morikawi has been posting here a while. I haven't bought anything from him, but I've never read any complaints from anyone about him.

Hope that helps,

Shane

Welcome Greg. You'll find a few of us that haunt both the OA and the OC.

I find that they tend to spell words like colour, honour, neighbour, correctly here but, other than that, they are just about as nuts about REXes as the OA folks.

ps. "Greg makes nice stuff" :thumb:

Well, you got your info, that Drew is above board and to be trusted, so where the intro?
Instead of signing Dog, you should have used the other part of your name.
Coming over here and casting nasturtions (©) on one of our members and getting nothing but warm welcome, unlike whenever we post on the OA when as soon as they realise they're talking to a Brit, they totally ignore you.

[jam]

:agreed: :agreed: I wholeheartedly concur with you sentiments Pal, I have an intense dislike of people who lack the most basic good manners and exhibit no regard for simple social conventions such as introducing ones self, before wanting things from people. I have the same sort of distain for people whos first post is an item for sale, It takes only a few key strokes to let people know a little bit about yourself, but even that seems to be too much of an effort for some people.

[DavidABQ]

Hello everyone. I'm a new member from the ZRXOA board where I'm also a moderator.

Not much else to say.

[kcearl]

Hi Dave ;)





:kcearl:

[storm42]

I would have to agree with everyone else here, i am in the middle of a transaction with moriwaki man and i have never been kept so informed as to what is happening with my purchase before.

He has sent me photographs of the items along with the shipping notes etc. he has bent over backwards to make sure everything goes smoothly and i would have no hesitation dealing with him again.

I can understand you wanting to know of any problems there might have been in the past, but rest assured, the man is so good he is probably made of chocolate.:cool:

[kcearl]

I must say I got a better welcome here than I did at the OA, and I appreciate the welcome I received here!

I see above that some of you feel like you got ignored over there because you are in the UK. I think that everyone new gets ignored on the OA for a time. We don't have an introduction area, and I know it's value from your fine example. I think the only thing to do here or there is to just keep posting. You will find that you are as welcome as anyone else on both sites if you just don't get driven off.

There are several UK rexers who post regularly on the OA. More are always welcome.

So, again, my suggestion is to not be put off and just keep posting. There is a ton of great information on both sites, as well as a great love for the ZRX.

As for Craig (Rude Dog), he's just Craig. Same here as there. Some folks appreciate his lack of pretense.

I have no problem with Moriwaki Man!'s selling techniques. I was the one who asked him to come to the OA and sell some things. He has not done much USA business, but he will. He will earn trust over there, just as he has here.

Thanks for having me! :hail:

Welcome.....different here isnt it...!
I was looking at Moriwaki mans Ohlins forks and shocks, seems like a very nice fellow, however on thrashing through some of the US bike sites I found them to be a good bit cheeper here. Didnt see any black ones though.....:eyebrow:

[DavidABQ]

Hey, I got here in May ...

You got here in May and you only have 39 posts?



Postwhoring isn't allowed here then. :blahblah:

[Unreasnbl]

Well, a few have been deleted.

I am the anti-Post-whore. Remember when I used to delete all my old drivel on the OA to keep my count below 100?

This thread has taken a sharp turn ... where the heck is Craig?

[Pal]

where the heck is Craig?

He transcribing an introduction of such eloquence and depth, going right back to his earliest memories, to put all of us to shame. Either that or he’s out riding before the hurricane season hits.

Howdy, from America, I ain't selling shite and I don't really want anything either. From the ZRXOA. It was actually you fellas that pointed me in the direction of the ZRXOA. I introduced myself a some time ago but thought it best to do so again and as a way to break the ice I thought you might enjoy this bit of fun.

In a recent issue of Meat & Poultry magazine, editors quoted from "Feathers," the publication of the California Poultry Industry Federation, telling the following story:

It seems the US Federal Aviation Administration has a unique device for testing the strength of windshields on airplanes. The device is a gun that launches a dead chicken at a plane's windshield at approximately the speed the airplane flies. The theory is that if the windshield can withstand the carcass test impact, it'll survive a real collision with a bird during flight.

Apparently, the British were very interested in this and wanted to test a windshield on a brand new, high-speed train they were developing.. They borrowed the FAA's chicken launcher, loaded a chicken and fired. The ballistic chicken not only shattered the windshield, but went through the engineer's seat, broke an instrument panel, and was imbedded in the back wall of the engine cab. The British were stunned and asked the FAA to review the test to see if everything was done correctly.

The FAA reviewed the data thoroughly and had one recommendation: "Use a thawed chicken."
