I am now only going through Takashi. He hasn't not been able to get anything we have asked for yet. I just sent him an email about the aluminum sprocket cover and moriwaki oil cap (that are on we bike) to see if he could get them. PLus his prices are usually cheaper. Yes Takashi's business definitely has a lot of support here. I bet he is so happy hahaha
Ill check out the levers. $120 for the pair is far better than asv charging you 120 for 1 lever! ugh!
