Have gotten stuff from both suppliers never a problem with either one.. Checking feedback is a good thing to do but do it with a grain of salt... sometimes the ones that leave negative are just whineybutts with no real justification to leave a negative...

I bought my Supertrapp Supermegs for my 06 FLHT from them and would recommend them.

I've used them several times with good results. I just ordered Hogtunes rear speakers from them on Friday.
They have a good Ebay score.

I have spent over $1,000 with ACM in the last 6 months. They responded to all of my emails and shipped promptly. No problems with them at all.

Not heard any really bad on products, but they can, at times, be slow to deliver the products to your doorstep. I've had no problem cause they said in the ebay post that it took time to deliver, so I expected it.

I've bought from them several times and have had no problems but have never tried to return anything either.

Thanks for all the input. I contacted them via email and they don't ship to FPO's.
I'm military overseas and need to find a good price from folks that will ship to me.

Thanks again.

Same problem, here. But I've had good luck with Eastern Performance, M&M [ http://www.mandmcycles.com/ ] and Zanotti's. All three have no problem shipping to APOs.

All,
Thanks for all the feed back. I recently ordered a Mustang seat from M&M and waiting for it to arrive. So far so good talking with them via email. I am working with EP on the exhaust and waiting for a reply from them. They seem to want to help, if they can get them. I am the first to admit I look at price/shipping costsfirst when buying anything online. I also take into consideration the service I get. Fair price and good service gets my money. With so many aftermarket distributors, it only makes sense to shop around. I have ordered from Zanotti's when I need HD parts. They took good care of me and will use them again when HD parts are needed.

American classic motors -
Wanting to resolve the heat issue associated with my 07 fxstc 96CI EFI engine, I decided to do a stage 1 upgrade to cool it down. Searching the net for Vance and Hines Big Radius pipes and FuelPak fuel management I found American classic motors to be the cheapest source. I ordered and paid instantly for the pipes. I had a question about "is this the new version 12 FuelPak" and he responded the next day and said "yes". So I ordered and paid instantly for the FuelPak. About a week later I received the pipes. Nice! I'm happy! Couldn't wait to install them and did. Left him A+ Positive feedback on eBay. I figured the fuelPak would be delivered shortly.
A week later still no FuelPak so I contacted American classic motors and was told it hasn't shipped yet! They ended up shipping it Christmas Eve! Because of the Holidays it took weeks to get the FuelPak. Not wanting to run my bike without the fuel management I had no choice but to just look at my bike with the nice new pipes. That was tough! Bummer!
I ordered and paid 12/15. They didn't process for shipping until 12/24. I didn't receive it until 1/3/08! They took over a week to process my order for shipping and finally did it on Christmas Eve with no concern it would be close to 2 more weeks to deliver from PA to TX over the holidays. So I left him Neutral feedback on eBay. (He deserved Negative but I gave him a break. I realize things happen). For that he came up from behind and kicked me in the nuts! He gave me Negative feedback in return: "SELLERS BEWARE! MUST OF FAILED MATH... CAN'T COUNT. X-MAS DELIVERY AS PROMISED!". Big bold lies on my profile. Wow dude! He retaliated against me for giving Neutral feedback! Then I received an offer for Mutual Feedback Removal. OK you win, I'll do it. That was a mistake! That only affects the score. The actual feedback stays in your profile. So now this jerk has ruined my reputation.
This has been a bad learning experience for me. I hope this post will prevent someone not to make the same mistake. Unless you leave him positive feedback he'll return feedback with negative and then blackmail you to mutually remove it. There's jerks out there, liars without morals! Be cautious of American classic motors!!

Thanks for the input.
I see your up to 2 posts and both are negative on ACM. Smells kinda fishy to me.

All,
Sure seems like ACM might have some issues to work out. They told me they don't ship to FPO's so I took my business elsewhere.
