tidos76 Posted March 13, 2009 Report Share Posted March 13, 2009 So i got a pingel without a adapter. I ordered an adapter plate from denis kurk for a banshee. The damn screws that came with the adapter plate were too damn long. I was tightening up the adapter and as soon as it was almost seated, about the point i was snugging it up. The damn screw bottomed out. I figured it was just getting snug so i continued to tighted it. next thing i know i feel the threaded part in the tank strip. I KNOW i was not over tightening. I faught with the damn thing for 45min just trying to get it out. finally i said screw it and just pulled the threaded piece and all out. I thought great now i gotta get a new tank all because this BS company sends out screws that are 2-3 threads too long. So i called pingle to ask them if this was a know problem. He told me he had never heard of it and asked for the part #. come to find out denis kurk sent me the wrong adapter, the adapter was for a sportbike. I will never buy from them again!!!! So i epoxied the threaded part and beat it back into place, got some shorter screws, and got it to work......I hope. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jbooker82 Posted March 14, 2009 Report Share Posted March 14, 2009 I would have just gotten one from here. Everything would have been together and worked with no problems. Probably would have saved you a few bucks as well. http://www.farmandsandtoys.com/partdetail.asp?partid=38 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lokisbuddy Posted March 15, 2009 Report Share Posted March 15, 2009 hahaha, well then why the fuck would he want it???? :yelrotflmao: pics of your girl or GTFO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Haha that was random. But Dennis Kirk has been known to screw up. When I was building my 86 tecate 3 I ordered a kickstarter for it and they sent me a honda recoil rebuild kit?! I called and was like WTF, They asked for the order number and replaced my order and gave me a 10 dollar gift card. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
