Beware of a guy called Ingo Seifert under the nick suzuki.ingo selling levers and other Buell items on ebay.

Picture in auction showed adjustable clutch AND brake levers. I paid and then received a set of (poor copies) standard levers. Seller would not compensate nor take item back. Instead he claims that the text in the auction says the levers are as the original one. But in fact, the text does not contain that information.

Also the clutch lever does not accept the OEM teflon bushing on the end of the clutch wire.

I noticed (afterwards) in his feedback history that fellow buellers have had the same experience with this guy.

Thanks for the heads up. Too bad there are people out there like that. I've ran into only one swindler thankfully on ebay. I agree the feedback is a critical.

I had a similar issue once, and the seller threatened me with a horrible review if I gave him a poor one and immediately reported me as an 'eBay scammer' to PP when I asked him to send me the correct product. What a prick.

Easy fix, tell eBay!
I have had problems before and when I have sent in a complaint, it has always been resolved.
Good luck and let us know how it goes.
