Honda, and other, OEM parts - Australia
#1

Inspired by [url=http://cb1100forum.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=7514]Quietguy's post I have put this up for Australian members, or others, who may want to order OEM parts for '10 models. As far as I can see there is an almost, but not complete, degree of commonality between '10 and '13 models.

I have found Barry Francis to provide a prompt and efficient internet order service. Better than my local dealer.

For after market bits I use [url=http://www.mcas.com.au]MCAS. They have proven very good and are very understanding with return and warranty issues.

When the AUD was at parity with USD, ordering from the Procaliber and other US sites was a good option. However exchange rate differences and changes to GST have made this less attractive. Some items, particularly those made in the USA, are still worth ordering from the US. In some cases, Dart screens for example, there is often not a local franchise so no other than overseas direct order is available. Unless you want to go through a local middleman.

Of course, the ever reliable Forum sponsor, Mr T, is highly recommended by forum members.
Cheers

Pterodactyl, thanks for that useful info, they look like viable options for me as I visit Oz to catch up with a brother. Have a good Xmas and a fun filled New Year. Cheers
