"I wish I would have read the reviews before I placed my order I'll just leave it at that"
"I was ordering from this gentleman because he has all the prices and parts.
Varaitor came no issue, but ordered a 21mm carb for my 2004 yamaha Zuma. He said I will get you a better carb and it will plug in directly to everything stock. This it does not, so I reached out and he said he would send the new throttle, choke and intake for the carb. It has been about 2 weeks and got told it was would 2 weeks ago, and again this week.
Notta.
RacingPlanetUSA or ScooterSwapShop are where it's at."
"I figured I'd chime in since I did not check reviews before ordering either. It has been a few years and I happened to be back on this site because the prices seemed good, then I realized where I was at... It took nearly 3 months to get all my parts for my Zuma. Not to mentioned they "pre-assembled" my clutch for me, which immediately exploded and broke to pieces in my crankcase. I didn't even bother to try and contact them about it because of how much of a hassle it was to even find out why everything took so long. I would not recommend using them for anything. There are many other sites that I have used and received orders less than a week later. Like I said, just don't."
"They sell things they do t have and don't tell you. When you call Abit the order the guy is so ride it will drive you insane. Don't buy from here. Hope his site shuts down"
"oredered a carb for a zuma on the 16th of January the owner said it was in stock and he would throw some jets in it and send it out in 2-3 days its been 2 weeks now and i called and he started yelling at me and said he will ship it when he feels like it do not do business with them ever"
"We placed an order iNovember 24, 2018. It was advertised as free shipping we were still going to be charged for shipping. My husband still placed the order. Skip ahead to the end of January 2019 still no part, my husband canceled the order. No refund given. When I finally called the owner to request a refund he had the nerve to yell and me!!! Totally unprofessional, do yourself a BIG favor and NEVER order from this unprofessional, unreputable scam artist!!!"
"This how this company treats people...

Please understand you are NOT my customer......with that said I would be have been happy to help....trying to bully people gets you nowhere.....your so called mechainic installed the caliper incorrectly and you rode the scooter making matters worse....and from what I see there is nothing wrong with caliper.....if its so hard to understand try to understand I am not there....the brake pistons not cylinders are collapsed so they are not locked up and not even engaged....the caliper was put on incorrectly and its easy to see that in picture...the incorrect one was ordered or the incorrect scooter....please recall a picture of your scooter in the woods not being cared for outside for years tells me why you have problems
have a nice day and do not contact me again...you are NOT my customer and you have not paid me anything and I did NOT ship you anything....trying to bully people will get you nowhere..FYI no such scooter as a Linhai Vog 260 scooter and is NOT the scooter you have.....understand I explained all this many times to your so called mechanic who BTW blamed you for everything...your Harley guy is also pulling your leg...not only do I sell parts and scooters they very one you have I ride the very one you have and own several and sold 100s plus I own ride and build Harleys as well as many other bikes
why even come to me if you have such great friends who could have helped...its not magic or anything special which makes you unbelievable and unreasonable...in case you do not know...you can not get a refund from someone you never bought something from
Like I said have a nice day and do not contact me again.....get some pads and install correctly which no one even showed me the brake pads which are most likely worn on the wrong side

Subject: Defective Part
Message: Im not sure how it is you think I bullied you? then how is it from seeing a picture in a driveway you assume my bike is kept in the woods? lastly my so called mechanic has nothing but good reviews under his business reviews where as you Sir have many bad reviews and a history of taking peoples money and then not delivering parts, it's hard for me to believe you haven't seen these reviews for yourself, lastly just because my name wasn't on the invoice doesn't not make me the customer because it was my money and ultimately im the one whose money you took, if you think for 1 minute I wanted this to go sideways, your sadly mistaken, im an everyday rider, at the end of the day, I just want to ride with zero problems, you see it any way you choose but the part that was sent was defective your word and opinion means very little when you don't have a legitimate reputation to back it up... good day to you and trust me after this I have no reason to contact you again, why would I, your just another thief and a liar...
Also guys feel free to see the other complaints on his videos, he has a reason and a excuse always as to why nothing is ever his fault, this dude and his company is as shady as they come, but it's all good he got over on me and my mechanic on a 1 time sale instead of seeing us as an investment and what could have been a profitable relationship for him and a loyal customer but that's not how he views people or how he sees things in general he's a short sighted scam artist in my opinion, no matter how he tries to spin things, there's no way that every person that has a complaint is wrong and the almighty Thunder Mike is always right, dude needs to check himself!!! and no matter where you look Google, Google Plus, FB, You Tube his videos under Thunder Mike, Yelp, Scootdawgs, Etc., he has dissatisfied consumers and people he has wronged... bottom line DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH THIS COMPANY, BUYER BEWARE...

"WELL orderd a part from this 1 guy and called 2 days in a row and 20 something calls later after getting no answer and a full voice mail box i get up with that 1 guy and he fusses me out.
VERY unprofessional."
"Ordered a carb from them because they had a good price. After talking to my local scooter shop I found out that the carb was not going to work for me. Called and got no answer. Emailed to try and cancel the order and got a reply in 3 days. They told me it had already shipped so the order could not be cancelled. Waited for it to show up, a week later got the message that it just now shipped, so why couldn't the order be cancelled? They just wanted to get it out and charge me because they have a 7 day return policy with an outrageous 20% restocking fee. Don't order anything from these scammers."
"Hello Scooter Folks, I order from this store because its in Maryland and offers shipping within 24 hours on certain parts, I figured if I place an in stock order on 9/18 I'd have my parts no later than 9/21 and be on the road again. Wrong. First off, I called on 9/21 and was told 'I cant get these out until Monday'. I asked if i could pickup that day in the Store because I REALLY needed the two Jets I ordered (for the main jet I ordered a 115). Was put on hold, never to be picked up again. Figured ok, screw it, next weekend. Now, Thursday 9/27. I got my part (which was sent out USPS on 9/24 not via FedEx which I paid for). Guess what, I got a size 120! The same that is in the scooter now! Dont even bother if you need the right part quick. Now I'll have to order the same part, from someone else, pay another postage and wait another week! "
"DON'T DO ANY BUSINESS WITH THIS MERCHANT. After reading some of the reviews, it is apparent that he is a fraudulent merchant. I ordered a mount for my scooter and thought I was getting the mount and a top box. Only the mount arrived and I installed it. That part was OK. When the top box did not arrive I called Michael and he explained I ordered a mount only. So now I had to order a top box for $250. When it arrived it did not fit the mount. I called and and told Michael that he set the wrong top box and I wanted him to call UPS and have them pickup the box and credit me back my money. He said he would but after a week and no pickup I called again and he agreed to call UPS again. After another week I filed a complaint with B of A, my credit card company, and spent 2 weeks complying to their requests only to have them say they can do nothing. It is now evident that he was delaying my sending the top box back, at my expense, as he has a 14 day return policy. All of the orders were drop shipped from the manufacturer so he shipped nothing. I have found out SCOOTERTONICS has 26 complaints from the Better Business Bureau. They give him an F rating. I also will not do any business with B of A any more."
"I ordered an exhaust gasket and oversized studs for a Chinese 150cc scooter. After waiting a month i called. The guy that answered said it was an unusual order because of the oversized studs but, after he thought about it for a minute decided he'd be able to fulfill the order. A week later I got an email from the USPS saying a shipping label had been printed and they had issued a tracking number. I thought, "yeah, finally i'll be able to repair my scooter." Today I called 6 - 7 times and finally got someone to answer. He made an excuse about how he'd missplaced my information. I cancelled the order on the spot. He claimed he'd send me a money order. After reading the reviews here i don't expect anything. I'm going to try and get the money from my Credit Card Company."
"This was absolutely the worst experience I have ever had in dealing with a company. I dropped off my scooter for a simple repair in the summer of 2011 and in January of 2012 still had not heard anything, so I began calling the shop only to find that the mailbox was consistently full. Once I finally got in touch, I got the standard "Just a few more days" response from a very rude man. Finally, we went and just picked up the scooter and saw that absolutely NO WORK had been done on it in 7 months. We demanded a full refund of the $400 we paid up front and have been waiting for that refund for 6 weeks now. When we call, the owner hangs up on us or completely ignores us.
I have no idea how this place is still in business. 25 BBB complaints filed against them.
STAY FAR AWAY."
"they never answer there phones or emails. what a crappy place to get stuff from. i better get my parts! 2 weeks and still waiting! might have to go and visit!"
"Tried to do business with Michael, anyways he is an idiot. Do not order from this company. No worth wasting anymore time to explain."
