I recently bought one of their gas tanks for my IT175. My title says it's a 1979 and that's what I ordered (it was in storage so I did not have it in front of me) but you would figure the title is correct right?

The tank came and I was very impressed with the level of detail and quality. Unfortunately it turns out my bike is a 1976-1977 model and the tanks are different between those years and the one I ordered would not fit.

I emailed Clarke Roley who responded the next day and they're willing to swap for the correct tank no problem!

It's this kind of customer service that goes a long way in my book - I highly recommend doing business with them.

They have a lot of tanks for various old/new bikes and some universal ones too.

Another real pro and pleasure to deal with is TOOMEY RACING. I ordered stinger silencers. MY mistake, they were wrong. They were quickly exchanged with GREAT communication from STUART TOOMEY! Fast and friendly. :thumbup:

I've known Stuart Toomey for over 4 decades, great friend and person. Now, his brother Ed, completely different story, avoid like the plague.

Very nice Barry, I am glad to see that a hometown company is getting the praise the deserve. This company is in my little town I grew up in, Molalla Oregon. Great people. :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:

They were great on the return, even though I put gas in it they said just rinse it out best you can.

They did not have any of the Scratch and Dents left (what I bought) or even any of the correct ones in stock, so they MADE one for me, the correct color etc for the same price as Scratch and dent!!! It came less than two weeks later and in the box was the RMA and shipping label pre-paid! All I had to do was box and drop-off at UPS, too easy :clap: :clap: :clap:

Definitely one of the better companies I've dealt with.
