Where do you guys shop for motorcycle parts? What is the benefit for you from buying from the US? What brands do you guys wish you had over there but can't find locally? Discuss!

Hi Anthony,
My bits mainly come off the internet - all UK based though. I've never had any difficulty in getting stuff that has forced me to shop from the US.
Only thing I wish we could get is decently priced Yoshimura cans. They end up around £500+ ($650 ish) which is ridiculous!
Oh - and you could send me over some of your cheap gas if you like.
Cheers!

It's around £1 a litre so that's around $6.30 a gallon at today's exchange rate. :cry:
Go on - make me depressed. What are you paying?
Cheers!

math problem for the day....
I get 2.37 gallons to your exchange rate of 6.30/gal (and that is the cheap stuff.....)

In Australia we pay $1.40 to $1.50 for 98RON fuel.
which at $1.40 per liter = $4.36 per gallon in us$ after the conversion rate ($5.299/gal in aus$).

In Poland 95E is for 5pln/liter. One US dollar=3pln. That makes one litre=almost two US dollars... No comment.
