Terrible customer service

Terrible customer service. I will nor be purchasing anything else from Dennis Kirk. They won't back up the parts they send. They just kick the can down the road and blame manufacturers for their mistakes. Sandy is horrible in the customer service department.
Also, reading Dennis Kirk's responses to some of these reviews just confirms that I will not be doing business with them again.

This makes the second time I have…

This makes the second time I have ordered parts from denniskirk.com with no errors in the processing of my order. My order went out the same day and was received on the day promised. The prices were comparable, if not lower than most. I will be using denniskirk.com for most of my motorcycle needs in the future.

Very misleading and horrible customer service.

Very misleading. I purchased a windshield from them via EBay. They love to advertise that they have a 90 day hassle guarantee but that is the catch. They won’t take it back if you lay a finger on the item. The customer service lady was very rude and arrogant. I purchase online all the time and I have never seen anything like this. Very surprised. I would recommend all you guys avoid DennisKirk at all costs and save yourself a headache.

Terrible customer service

Terrible customer service. Was told by a representative that the part would fit. So I then ordered it. When I received it it would not fit on my bike. So I returned it. They then refunded me less than what I originally paid for the part saying I had to pay return shipping even though it was on them and the description on the part was not accurate. I will never use this company again.

Good prices, fast shipping, good customer service

Good prices and fast, accurate shipping.
If there was a small nit to pick it would be getting the tracking info.
Otherwise they are very responsive. I ordered some tires that didn't fit and returned them. They shipped the replacements the same day.
They have earned me as a repeat customer.

Customer called to cancel an order that was placed at 5:38 PM on 8/16. The call was made to cancel at 12:30pm on 8/17. The customer was told that the order could not be cancelled because it had been processed, which was correct it had been processed. We were able to retrieve the order but it was already manifested to UPS so the customer got an automatic email stating it was shipped. The customer called when he received the email and threatened our sales staff member with posting horrible reviews online because he believed we had just shipped the order. We had no way of unmanifesting the order in UPS system. The order was caught and the customer was issued a refund in full. The customer should see the refund to his card within 2-3 busniess days depending on his financial institution. In most cases these orders can not be caught 12 hours after they have been placed as we ship same day,

GUARANTEED FITMENT ??????

Spent about a half hour on the phone with a Tec. to make sure the LED tail/brake light assembly would fit. I was promised an exact fit. The part arrived and " IT WAS NOT EVEN CLOSE TO WHAT I NEEDED". Very disappointed and wasted a lot of time. I am getting a full refund BUT STILL????????

DO NOT SHOP HERE!!! NOT LEGIT!!!!

Avoid dealing with this disreputable company.

I began buying parts from them in the early 1980's, when it was
a much different company.

Now, it's just a shell of what it once was.

THEY NOW HAVE THE WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE!!!
============================================

I returned a tire which is defective. Some areas of the bead were
splitting as I was mounting it.

These were areas the tire spoons never even touched.

Once I got it mounted, I noticed that an area of the bead had folded over and was not seated. I could not get that area seated properly and felt it was unsafe to use the tire. So, I sent it back.

Today, I called Dennis Kirk and was told that they won't do anything "because the Warranty Dept. noticed the bead is damaged".

NO KIDDING!!! That's why it was sent back in the first place!
Then I get, "We can't do anything with it". Well, neither can I. Ripped-off for $85.00!

They are like a bunch of gangsters. I will never order anything from them again.

DO NOT TRUST THESE BUMS!!! They are incompetent and
Dennis Kirk is NOTHING like the company it once was.

It's now staffed by a bunch of incompetents who don't know
how-to handle a simple manufacturer's warranty claim, in-house.

Even though the return form has a checkbox for "defective" and "quality", they will do NOTHING FOR YOU if / when there's a problem. I call that lying to customers.

Spend your hard-earned money elsewhere and avoid them.

This place is horrible and way, way beyond disreputable!

Hi there customer service was just terrible with this company so I decided not to go forth with the order and from reading all the negative other reviews I'am sure glad I never did actually place the order, Thank God they sure need to replace who ever is in charge of over seeing customer service he or she needs to go to lunch and never come back and upper management isn't paying attention to the reviews we are in a tech world now and the customer can complain and the whole world gets read it .Hello get with it its almost 2020 not 1973 where you would call lodge your complaint and it would get swept under the rug as we all know their is plenty of competition within this business so we go else where, just that easy hopefully for others employed with the company someone else takes the time to look at reviews and starts listening whatever happen to the customer is always right and above all is treated with kindness and respect Thank you all and have a great day

What happened to patience and guidance in Customer Service??

1st I got the wrong part even though the site said it fit my bike. Then when I called asking for help a girl with an attitude talked over me and tried to help me but her attitude ruined my experience so instead of exchanging the product I asked for a refund and bought it on revzilla which by the way, was AMAZING w their customer service. Now I call again bc I got a random email stating they received my return so I called to make sure its also being processed and another girl with an attitude tells me "Yeah, it can like, take like 10 days" And that's that. I have bought from JP Cycles, Mozaic Racing, Revzilla, Amazon, HD Dealership and Revzilla by far is the best, they don't talk down to you and have patience explaining and describing what you need. I have probably spent over $2k in the last month adding new exhaust ($500), handlebars ($200), headlight ($100), headlight cover ($50), grips ($80), PV Tuner ($400) Arlen Ness air filter ($250), seat, sissy bar ($215), foot pegs ($100) and much much more. I should have given Revzilla all my business, If only I would've known. If you are buying something you are 100% sure is correct then DK is a good spot BUT if you need any help or CS, go somewhere else...sucks that one bad apple can ruin the whole bunch

I bought an expensive helmet from them and now I am sending it back. I needed it before June 23rd, I ordered on May 30th and on their web for the helmet I wanted sizing said Size 54 = S, so I ordered that one. it said that the item would be shipped between 3-5 days.
It got shipped on June 7th, it arrived today June 13th and when I opened I see the size in the helmet S (55-56). So their webpage of the sizing for that helmet was wrong, and it fits somehow loose and I am not keeping a loose 760UDS helmet, for that price I want something that fits me perfect. I called them right now because they haven't answered my email from this morning, and they tell me that if I sent it back for an exchange, they won't be able to send me the correct size before June 22nd (9 days) I should have bought it from the beginning in revzilla. not buying from them again and I hope at least not to have problems with the refund process.

Hi Nikko,
Sorry to hear of your issues. The helmet you ordered is a special order item which states online it will ship in 4-5 days, which would be business days as weekends dont count for shipping. The helmet shipped to us on 5/31 because you ordered it after the end of the business days on 5/30 (8:57pm) and 5 business days later was June 7th because of the weekend. We apologize for the confusion, normally they show up sooner than expected to us but not in this case :(

Deniskirk has the lowest priced parts and accesories on the internet. I have purchased 3 high priced items and everything fits like what they said when I spoked with the customers service. I was wondering why people complaining about reestocking fee. They should bring thier motocycle or whatever they have to the dealer so everything can be fit properly. Most of the do it yourself persons dont know what they are doing. There are some accesories/parts that needs to be trimed or adjusted to make it fit. They also stated that the cutomers service are rude but I never experience that, what I experience is they always treat me in a very polite way answering all my questions without rushing me to get off the phone. I am now actually recomending Deniskirk to all my friend and co riders. Arnel A.

Once a seat is mounted and ridden on it cannot be sold as new. Our return policy clearly states you have 90 days to return unused products. Since we can no longer sell the seat as new it has to be sold as used on Ebay, which is why it is deducted. "You may return any unused and unaltered item(s) within 90 days for an exchange or a refund."

First time and last time customer!

Ordered an exhaust system online that claimed to be an "exact fit", it arrived over a week later. Had original exhaust removed, began installing new pipes and ran into fit problems, it was obvious that it wasn't going to work. Spoke to Rob in technical support, he kept interrupting as I was trying to describe the issue, also arguementive and condescending. Spoke to another girl in customer service the following day about exchanging for another pipe, she wasn't very friendly either so I chose to get a full refund due to incorrect fit info on their website. You're better off just buying from your local Harley dealership, they have access to all the same products as Dennis Kirk and if you have a Hog chapter membership, you'll get a 15% discount!

Well

Well, let me join the list of dissatisfied customers. Apparently, there's a pattern with Dennis Kirk's Customer Service. I ordered a windshield for my 2015 Indian Scout (Part Number 235313) which online, they stated would fit. I received it in a timely manner, so I'll give them that. But, when I went to test fit the fork brackets,they were too tall for the gap. I lowered the position of my turn signals as far as they would go and the brackets were still 1/8" - 3/16" too tall. I stopped at that point seeing there was no need to go any further. Repackaged everything as it had been sent and even put the brackets and fasteners in a gallon zip lock to assure they didn't flail around during shipment. I was contacted by Customer Service at Dennis Kirk and told the windshield was all scratched up and there were signs it had been mounted. A common excuse from what I've read in other comments. I never mounted anything because it was impossible to do. But that didn't seem to matter to the Customer Service rep. (Sandy). She insisted on saying I did and said I would be charged 30% ($91). By saying I mounted the windshield, she basically called me a liar. It appears the old adage "The customer is always right." doesn't apply at Dennis Kirk. Given the fact I didn't mount the product and that it was in the same condition as it was received, I consider this to be THEFT! I will be contacting the BBB.

Hi Jeff,
We are sorry to hear of your issues with our return policy.

As with most companies, parts must be unused and in new condition to receive a refund.
I personally looked at this windshield and it is full of fine scratches and also had pet hair on it.
It looks as though it was wiped to clean it off before it was shipped, which caused fine scratches all over the windshield. The hardware had also been mounted, which you state above. There was also a few small gouges in the windshield. We are sorry to hear you are not satisfied with our decision, but the part is not defective and can not be sold as new, so we must toss the part. Deducting you 30% only covers part of the cost of the windshield, which we now must throw away.

Garbage Customer Service Poor Quality Parts

I ordered some levers for my Harley from this company. According to the the website they were supposed to fit my M.C. Well they didn't so I contacted customer service who stated their online information was wrong. They did send me another set and credited my account with the difference. There was a span in time before I could bring the levers into my MC mechanic to put on the new set. They did fit but were deemed unsafe and of very cheap quality by my MC mechanic who is a Master Harley mechanic. I contacted customer service they said it would cost me a re-stocking fee. No problem. Then they called me and stated they couldn't do anything but send the parts back to me because they appear to have been mounted. No kidding...that's how it was determined they were crap. I told them don't bother and throw them in the trash where they belong. I wont spend another penny with this garbage company.

I had used Dennis Kirk for years for my snowmobile parts needs. Then when I ordered a new helmet in January 2019 and it didn't fit, I returned it. Well they decided that since the tags were not still attached, but in the bottom of the box, they docked me 25% of my return value. Absolutely the worst company to deal with. I used to spend hundreds but will take my business elsewhere and hope everyone does the same.

Hi Hugh,
We are sorry to hear of your issues with Dennis Kirk Returns.
However, you were not deducted for tags taken off. You were deducted because there were scratches to the helmet and the clear protective film was removed from the shield.
We do not deduct for tags being removed, we can reattach tags. We must be able to sell the helmet as new for you to get a full refund,
Had the helmet not been returned scratched and missing the protective coating, then you would have been refunded in full.
