Got this in my inbox on here last night. Definitely a form letter, and the user has no posts. any of you guys get this message too?

"Dear,

I have been following your posts for some time and I am very impressed by your talent, skills as well as project motorcycle. I am delighted to become your sponsor and supply saddles and parts for your projects
I can provide photos of our latest products via the following email, kencktam@gmail.com.

Cheers,

Hopefully not too many - I put limits on how many PM's someone could send a while back. The account has been deleted.
 
Thanks Tim. Definitely seemed like a major spammer to me.
 
I'm in conversation with Ken. He seems legitimate, just didn't know how to best introduce his products.
 
Yeah, I went to the web site.

Seems ok.

Not sure about the products due to what appears to be a limited amount of selections

Tanks and saddles.

well that's cool then. No harm there. It just seemed like spam. I was even hesitant to click the link, but it seemed to turn out ok. My phone isn't locked up or anything now lol
 
i waited till i got to work to click the link.....figured if it's gonna screw up a computer, might as well be the one at work.
 
Ken actually did look through the build threads for people he thought would be interested in parts.

So whoever got contacted by him, keep it in mind. I've asked him to register again and you can get in touch.

Ok I saw that to and messaged him back he said he would send me product as long as I pay shipping. Website seems real just serious as to the legitimacy of it all. A new seat would be cool.

Yeah I thought I changed it. I have a small break from my students today I will get in it.


EDIT: Email Changed.
 
I was also wondering about this. I actually received two of those messages from him. Interesting that it seems to be legitimate.
 
Ive emailed him back and forth now a few times. He actually does seem legit. I am going to try to get one of his seats and fit it to my gt250. He said ill have to cover shipping, and I am wondering how much that will be from Hong Kong. If that number is really out of line, I will be a little leery, but so far so good. Ill keep this thread posted with what I come up with.
 
Re: Who else got a p.m. from "raremoto"

I exchanged emails with him as well. Seems legit to me also, and his products seem nice.
 
yep, I stopped getting replies after I told him that working on /building motorcyles was a hobby in my garage and that my "custom" bike might not be done for another year.

I understand though, he is trying to get his product out into the market and the "custom builders" eyes, and I little garage shop out of central ohio probably wont do that for him lol
 
Re: Who else got a p.m. from "raremoto"

I contacted him as well. I will have my bike in the road by December hopefully but I am not a shop builder just a hobbyist. That and I need to know what shipping is from Japan to CA.

Got a message as well. Curious to see someone else get one before I consider it. If shipping isn't insane I may see what they look like myself.
