OEM
Your section OEM part does not cite any sources. Please see WP:CITET and WP:CS for help with adding citations. If you do not add citations, I'll have to delete your uncited additions to the page original equipment manufacturer. Fleetham (talk) 16:34, 17 July 2009 (UTC)

thanks for adding citations!
Thank you for adding citations, but I removed them because they did not have much relevance to what they where supporting. For example, the claim that an OEM part is "the original part used when building and selling the product" was supported by a citing a source about the importance of using OEM parts, and most importantly, the source did not define what an OEM part is. The source did not support the claim.

I've cited a new source to support the claim that an OEM part is "the original part used when building and selling the product".

This new source is relevant to the claim, and states "You may have heard other parts companies and even our own sales staff say "we have an OEM part in stock." This refers to a part that is made by the same manufacturer as the genuine part you would receive from you local automotive dealer. " As you can see, this new source supports the claim that an OEM part is "the original part used when building and selling the product".

The subsection still needed a citation, as the claim that an OEM part may also be a part "specifically approved as a replacement part by the brand owner of the product" is unsubstantiated.

Thank you again for heeding my request. Fleetham (talk) 16:25, 18 July 2009 (UTC)

Motorcycle part
Yeah, I think many aftermarket parts are made to fit as many makes and models as possible. That's sucks it doesn't work for your motorcycle, though. And thanks for making the changes, I really do appreciate it - sorry if I'm a bit harsh. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Fleetham (talk • contribs) 02:29, 19 July 2009 (UTC)
