Frequently Asked Questions

Ordering and delivery

Who is Sporty Parts?

Sporty Parts was founded in 1993 by Kirk Kelley. After 27 years of being a one man show, in 2020 he passed the torch to his daughter, Denise. Under her ownership, the company has expanded to two locations and a web store that ships Sportster parts globally. We are a small team (literally 5 of us) who are dedicated to getting you the parts you need to stay on the road. Thank you for supporting our Family Owned Small Business 

Where is my order confirmation?

Order confirmation is automatically sent to your email address when you place an order. Please check your mailbox’s spam or junk folder before contacting in case the order confirmation has been diverted there. When placing your order, double check that all information is entered correctly.

If you need to reach out to us about your order, you will need your order confirmation number. Please ensure you find it before contacting us. 

Can I alter my order?

We may be able to modify your order before it ships, but the window of time is small. Please contact us asap if you need to order a greater quantity or an additional product, or if there are items you wish to remove from your order.  Modifying your order will add additional processing time and may delay receiveing your tracking information.  Placing an additional order may be necessary if your order has already been processed. 

If the address you entered at checkout is wrong, please contact us immediately via email orders@sportyparts.com

How do I cancel my order?

There is only a short amount of time between when you place your order and when your order enters our processing queue. Your window for cancellation is 1 hour after ordering. Cancellation requests can be sent via email to orders@sportyparts.com. You will be charged a transaction fee of 8% for all cancelled orders. This is the non-refundable fee charged by our payment processor. We know this sucks. To avoid this, please verify your order before it is placed. 

What countries do you ship to?

We ship globally! However, the shipping method we use for international orders may differ from the method selected at checkout. Duties, taxes, terriffs, VAT, or brokers fees may need to be paid on some international orders.

If your international order is delayed, please contact us before 60 days from the shipping date. After 60 days we cannot ensure shipping insurance will be honored and will not be able to offer a refund. 

Please double check that your shipping address is correct before placing your order to ensure delivery is not delayed.

When will my order ship?

We ship daily Monday-Friday from our California and Oklahoma locations.  We do not ship on weekends.  We aim to ship all orders within 3 business days of receiving them. Unfortunately, global supply chain issues have increased processing time for some orders. Please bear with us and know we are doing everything in our power to get you and your motorcycle on the road. Additionally, modifying your order may add additional processing time. 

If you have received your order confirmation email, we have your order in our queue.  If there is an issue with your order, we will contact you. 

Can I track my order?

Yes!  When you place an order, you will immediately receive an order confirmation email.  You will receive a follow-up email with a tracking reference number once your order has shipped.  You can use this to check the progress of your order while it is in transit.  Keep in mind, once your order has left our warehouse we have virtually no ability to do anything about it.  All tracking inquiries once the order has shipped should be directed to the carrier. 

**Please make sure the email address you provide is correct.**

Where's my package? Is my package lost?

Once the package has left our warehouse it is entirely in the hands of the shipper (USPS, UPS, DHL, or FedEx). If you believe your package is lost or stolen, please email us immediately at orders@sportyparts.com to file a claim, and include your order number.

Domestic packages must be "undelivered" for 15 days from the ship date before the shipper will consider it missing. International packages must be "undelivered" for 45 days before the shipper will consider it missing. (It's lame, we know.) We are not responsible for lost or stolen packages, but all packages are insured. If you believe your package has been stolen, please email us immediately. Lost packages must be reported as lost before 60 days. 

If this happens, we are unable to refund or re-ship your order until the shipping insurance is processed. This can take anywhere from 5-21 days.  If you are in a hurry, you can re-purchase your parts and we will fully refund your first order when the shipping insurance processes. Otherwise we will re-ship your order once the insurance clears. 

Additionally, if a package comes back to us as "Returned to Sender," you will be responsible for additional shipping to resend the package. If you do not wish to have the package reshipped, you will be issued a store credit for the parts.

Please double check the address you enter at checkout

Providing the return is within the 14-day return window and meets our return criteria (see above), you can send it back with the return form at the bottom of your invoice. If you are returning an item that was ordered incorrectly (year or fitment) or you just don't need it, you do not need to contact us before shipping it back. However, if you do not include the return form you will experience delays in receiveing a refund.  If your form is not fully filled out, you will default to receiving store credit. 

If you are considering a return due to fitment issues, please send photos to orders@sportyparts.com with the subject Tech Support and your order number. Returns for fitment issues will not be accepted until you have spoken with someone from our technical support team.  If your product is found to be faulty and we cannot offer a replacement we will (of course) waive all restock fees. 

You will be responsible for paying the shipping costs for returning your item. Shipping costs are non-refundable. If you receive a refund, the cost of return shipping will be deducted from your refund.

Depending on where you live, the time it may take for your return to reach us or your exchanged product to reach you may vary. We recommend purchasing shipping insurance for all packages sent to us. We are not responsible for lost, damaged, or stolen packages.
