I have been planning to take a trip around america this summer. Sadly, I wrecked the front of my bike about a month ago so I need to replace it.

I order one of those naked conversion about two weeks ago. I check the tracking and I saw this.

Retention reason : Other


Is this serious. I can not ride my motorcycle or take my dream trip around america until i get that part.
 
Will have to be more specific, how bad did you wreck it, I mean it sounds like you only hurt the plastics and fairing. Not like the windshield did that much to begin with anyway. Post a picture of where you are currently at. Are your forks and all that in good shape? Cables are undamaged? Still getting voltage to the front? :needpics:

I think the post refers to the item held in customs?

If you ordered the part from outside the USA you might have to pay the import duty before they release the item.
It's the same here if your items get caught. Good luck.

I don't think you're SOL - it just might be a few days while it sits in customs (mine took 2 days, inbound to customs on 4/23 and outbound on 4/25). It might be longer for you because of the holiday weekend though. Nothing to fret about, just normal stuff when dealing with international shipments.

Hope you are right. Perfect weekened and me without my bike in working order is driving me nuts.
