I agree, the only reason China is making profits is because they are paying the workers $1 per day and selling the products far cheaper then products made anywhere else. Price will drive sales (supply/demand) even if the parts are junk. Take harbor freight for instance. Most of what they sell is junk. BUT, it's so cheap you can just pitch the crap when it breaks and get another item.
UFO's products on the other hand aren't that much cheaper (if at all) than stuff found elsewhere. It doesn't perform that much better (like his Vgas vs PCW flats or even my carbs and jet kit). It isn't that much prettier. Not all of his products are junk (he doesn't make everything he sells - just like most vendors, myself include, don't).
BUT, he has very poor customer service after the sale. I'm sure it's great before and during the sale. BUT, when there is a problem he hides better then jews from a Nazi patrol (no offense to the jews). This thread and discussion will hurt his sales more then it will help it I am sure.
Tim's comments so far have simply been matter of fact and in my opinion do nothing to detract from him. He's pointed out his claims, backed them up pictures, and he may even be able to post up some numbers to prove his point. I personally don't even need the numbers. Just off of the support gives Jon after the sale is enough for me to not need anything he has.
He likes to attack me whenever possible, call names and infer he's a super vmax man. Go ahead and let him. I personally think his HP claims are bogus, his claim to being the most powerful this and that are bogus.
Jon,
If you or one of your lackeys is reading this. Here's the challenge:
Let's send in some of your parts for testing, Gen 1 and Gen 2, to someone that is impartial to either of us. Find a dyno facility and a local bike. Install our products back to back on the same machine and see just what they do.
There is an excellent facility in Topeka Ks that we use each year for a dyno event and gathering. We can bring the pipes, carbs, ect... and each have our turn with a bike. I can either find a bike or we can ask the general membership.
I'd even consider flying in somewhere to wrench and install parts.
We had started trying to do some testing with another member but there were some personal issues he had and couldn't finish up. So, all the testing isn't worth anything since it won't be testing on the same bike.
Perhaps this summer I can proceed again on my own and try again. I am sure you won't believe the info we get without you being there but I think my reputation will be enough for most guys here. The reason I would like you present is so that you'll be obligated to remove the verbiage from your ads about having the most powerful this and that. That way if you don't maybe we can move forward with the false advertising claims.
Again, not being hateful. Just simply a fair and independent comparison of the products.
