Anyone need any parts? I'm buying from the USA, feel free to share shipping.

[jasonbw]

I'm getting a bit of an order happening with http://www.superbikesupply.com if anyone wants something from them let me know and I'll add it to the order.

Already got BigB who wants Braided lines for his Z1000 and Vesrah brake pads (paying $10 shipping for his parts)

Anyone else?

[Motovated]

Jas, I was about to order a Yoshi RS-3 for 04/05 GSXR 750 from the states, could include it your order - may work out cheaper for shipping??

[jasonbw]

Sure, I'll ask for his price and will write back. Are there details? Carbon? Oval? Stainless? What do I need to know?

[Motovated]

Forgot to say - S/S (cheapest :ayyy: )
its an oval pipe - not tri oval - price was $245 US + $15
so $260 US

What about those 10mm Caliper Spacers ??? Can you get those ???

[Sprinter]

Whens your cutoff date?

[dungbeetle]

i have got $2000 worth of gear coming over at the moment from www.sumofallparts.net
he gets oem parts and after market and he will match any price if he cant beat it. i been getting prices off www.flatoutmotorcycles.com cause they are one of the cheapest for oem parts but have the shittiest service ever. but sum of all parts will match his prices. shoot him an email and tell him dungbeetle sent ya there and see if he can do better prices for ya. he will combine shipping and is really quick to reply. awesome service all round!!

[jasonbw]

Sprinter just sometime next week would be good.
Turtle I'll ask, probably can.

Thanks for the link Dungy, lots of good bits in his site!!!! Has delivery already started (i.e. too late to add anything?)

[dungbeetle]

yeh delivery has al;ready started sorry jason. but shoot him an email for prices of the stuff ya wanna get. he can get anything, not just the stuff on his site!!
stay away from that flat out motorcycles tho for anything other than price comparison!! they really suk!~!!

[Sprinter]

Budget took a hit today so wont be able to get in on this. Thanks anyway

[Dezerteagle]

Anyone used MotoMummy? They are another site I know of.

I like the prices the US guys have, just not confident in overseas purchasing (since I've never done it).

Edit - Just doing a price comparison, MotoMummy are cheaper then Superbike Supply...

http://www.motomummy.com/

[dungbeetle]

like i said before, flat out motorcycles will be the cheapest ive found. but their service is shit. check em out, then www.sumofallparts.com will match that price...but email those stores if ya want, they may match as well...

[jasonbw]

Thanks Dungy, I'll try sumofallparts next time.

BTW I'm just waiting now on the return quote, if anyone wants anything else to add then yell out now so I can give you a price. Sorry Irena, no Gel seat! :(

Hey Jason,

If you can see how much it will cost for an HJC CL-SP APEX in silver and black XL.

Cheers!

[jasonbw]

I can ask him Simon but I'd strongly recommend against it as the helmet doesnt have the Aus approval sticker... which can be a PITA if you get pulled up by a pissed off cop, or have an accident with head injuries and they find you werent wearing an approved helmet, ahh just ramblin' no prob either way just let me know.

Hey, there no black and silver one listed, you talking the one thats in the photo? (see attachment)

JasonBW

JasonBW

hey, just gotta question about the helmets.
if ya buy a helmet from O.S, and it has all the other approvals, cant remember what they call em, but anyway, if it has passed all of them, but not the Aus standard, will they allow it on a track?
cause i've never taken notice at scruiteneering if they check for the AS1698 sticker:(

[jasonbw]

Good question... personally I have no idea about the track... thinking logically motogp and wsbk riders shouldnt have to purchase the same Shoei in India as their UK one has the wrong sticker! Then again insurance companies don't care much for logic. Kellz might know as shes done scruiteneering

[MATTK6]

that's what i was thinking, but then i thought that, well, they're in the motoGP, so the riders wouldnt have to worry about any of it, cause the factory would take care of it, but it's just a question i've been pondering for some time now, cause alot of the helmets i like, arent here in australia, and i aint gonn bring 30of em in so they can smash 29 of them:cursing:

[simon791]

Ahhh fair enough.. yeah that the one im after, if you can just see how much they want it would be great.

Cheers.

[jasonbw]

I just saw Dilbee rides with a US spec helmet?? Maybe ask if he's ever got hassles over it ?

The price is on his site, www.superbikesupply.com he might give a small discount though? I'm still waiting on his response.. man, maybe I should ditch buying this lot from him and quote it up from that mob Dungy suggested.

[Motovated]

Maybe quote from http://www.flatoutmotorcycles.com/ and order from
http://www.sumofallparts.net/ like dungy does??

[jasonbw]

yep yep, understood from Dungy post just didnt write that in the last post. will do and will let you know their Yoshi price first.

[jasonbw]

Hey Jase you got any word back from the States yet in regard to your order ???

[dungbeetle]

hey jason
did you email flat out motorcycles? cause they wont reply. they are shit with communication. just get what prices ya can off their website then email sum of all parts and tell them what prices ya got...

[jasonbw]

I've emailed all three two times (mine included) no-one has responded... sigh

[dungbeetle]

hmmmm email donovan@sumofallparts.net
he replies to my emails within 24 hours usually....he is the bloke sorting my order at the moment...

[jasonbw]

Thanks, will do.

[Marcus]

I checked and the only thing I actually need is preload adjustors... No one has them listed.

If its too much of a pain, dont worry, ill just order them from Ebay.com

Oh, BTW I paid $129 US for my Gel seat for the K6. Best deal I could find!

[jasonbw]

Thanks Marcus, Where'd you get the Gel seat and what Brand? Irena is after one.

[dungbeetle]

i got my preload adjusters from work. a great big shifter!!:D

[jasonbw]

I found a nice way of adjusting preload without marking the nice anodised coating (which I had destroyed on the stock CBR forks, and didnt want the Ohlins to go through the same fate), put zip lock bag over the adjustor before putting the socket over it... if its too thick its not good as the socket is too tight to fit, find one that fits over but doesnt make you go up one size in socket.

Best yet (although messy), have a roll of sticky tape in the garage, run one layer of tape around the adjustor and you wont get a single scratch on the coating.

[jasonbw]

Dungy, that Donovan guy was quick to reply, he told me he hadnt seen an email from me... I checked my work PC and it was sitting in the drafts... I feel like an idiot. anyway I've given him the list will see what he can source out of it and will then try with prices.

[Marcus]

Jason,

I got it from Ebay, they usually go for $135 US but managed to find one from oneida suzuki a little cheaper. They dont ship to Australia so I had it shipped to my uncle who has some other stuff for me. I requested a total twice and they filed a non paying bidder

I ended up with the carbon one, the normal one looks a little cheap and while I hate carbon look crap, it looks better made

JasonBW

[dungbeetle]

whod ya get that all from?

[jasonbw]

Superbike supply still.. no prices yet from Joe, he wrote asking if I got his attachment... I replied that I didnt but havent heard from him since.. have written again today.

[dungbeetle]

its fukken tough to get good service aye!!:(
even worse with suppliers here in aus and then they :doggy: you with price even after shit service!!:(

[BART]

Jason,

I need to replace the Rizoma crash puck on the engine case on the Z1000. Do you know if this supplier does the rizoma brand or a similar one.

I had a look at the website but I can't see anything.

[jasonbw]

I recently bought Motovation and Rhino sliders from him, I'd assume he could do any... I'll ask.
Hey, I posted in your other thread but it might be worth asking Dungys suggested guy about a Z1000 tank??

[jasonbw]

Plus I know an importer of rizoma parts here.. www.zpower.com.au down in Wollongong.. top guy, ask for Alan and tell him you know me from this site just so he knows how his name is getting around. See what his price is.. should be good!

[simon791]

Cheers Jase, Yeah go ahead with that helmet! How ya want the cash?

[jasonbw]

Thanks mate, lets see if Motovated wants that RS3 and we can work out who pays what for shipping between all of us.

[simon791]

not a problem buddy just let me know.

[Motovated]

Whoops - haven't looked at this thread for a while Jase - yes I want the RS3 and is it too late to add a BMC Race filter for K5 GSXR 750?

[jasonbw]

Ha ha, nah not too late mate.... is everyone ok if we hold the order for a little over a week ??

[juiced-r1]

Can you guys find out if they have yoshi full systems for the 98 R1 (or any good full system for that matter)? PRETTY PLEASE?! If not, I'd be very keen on a replacement slip-on just in case mine gets a hammering.

HOPE I'M NOT TOO LATE!

[jasonbw]

Not too late mate, not at all... I'll ask for a quote..

[juiced-r1]

Thanks! I'd love the yoshi RS3 full system with either the standard stainless can, or carbon fibre. Superbike supply lists it at $649 USD, need to know shipping and maybe a bulk discount hahaha!

[striker]

like i said before, flat out motorcycles will be the cheapest ive found. but their service is shit. check em out, then www.sumofallparts.com will match that price...but email those stores if ya want, they may match as well...

It doesn't look like sumofallparts sells 1 piece leather suits. Flat out motorcycles have reasonable prices, but you said their service is shit. Have you ever successfully purchased anything from them Al? Does anyone have a any reliable place selling race suits for reasonable prices?

[dungbeetle]

i have sucessfully purchased sumthin from them about 4-5 years ago, and they ripped me off in the end, forgot to put brake pads in the package!!!
since then i cant even get a reply to an email!!
im surprised donovan doesnt do 1 peice suits, but honestly, i think id buy a suit in aus anyway. goto mca at liverpool and fullhouse will look after ya.
ya want a suit that fits nice otherwise its really gonna suk!!

im trying to get donovan to join the site to make this process a little easier. did you tell him you were from here as well? cause i think the more feedback he gets from here, the more interested he may be in joining. we may only be a small market, but we are consistantly growing. and he would have a monopoly on us!!!

[striker]

I've bought all of my leathers from the US so far, and have saved a shitload by doing so. I bought an alpinestars jacket and a pair of SMX-3 boots, and even with the cost of postage included I saved 600 bucks.

[simon791]

Jase,

Any updates on the order?

[jasonbw]

Funny timing, I was searching for this thread to update...

I've concluded all these USA guys are ...slow, I'm going to have to (apologetically) say I wont order now, absolutely NO-ONE returns emails, calls have prompted things along but like I say, they're slow.

I'm going to get zpower.com.au or Easy Rider to get these bits for me.. sorry all... I'll PM individuals who wanted parts.

Sorry for the late reply, only just saw this post, yep, I told Joe Browning I'm from the RATs and you put me onto him, and I've probably sent him 5 emails now with only one response asking if I got what he already sent.... 4 since then to say I havent- please re-send or fax (and email me to say its faxed) and have heard nothing again... :(

[dungbeetle]

thats really shitty service aye!!! i have sent one to joe, and never got a reply. but donovan is always awesome with his replys.
the only thing i can think of with these yanks is that we are just to small a market to show any interest in!! but to me income is income....anyway sorry for the fuk around and ill keep trying to get donovan to join so maybe we will have an easier avenue to get this shit sorted!!

[dungbeetle]

well ive just emailed donovan and vented about all the rude americans who wont reply!!!!
im hoping to shame him into joining the site and then ill start a sticky thread that he can reply to requests in. if the shame didnt work, then i guess we will have to find another seppo to hassle!!

[jasonbw]

:) mate dont be sorry, thanks for the lead just pity it didnt work out like we wanted.. hopefully he can be a 'site sponsor'.

Point him to the 1000rr.net forum, where the site owner is the superbikesupply place... everyone over there straight away replies to any purchase like question saying they should contact the superbikesupply place.. works fantastic for the owner, generates a LOT of business.

But tell him he has to pay for the privelidge :)

[Stretchy]

You guys should try Hard Racing. Over the last two years i have made 5 or 6 orders and never had a problem getting quick replies and prompt service and deliveries. They dont do international credit card orders just wire transfers but have never had a problem. Once they have received the transfer they ship it out and its here in 3 days, then customs usually holds for a week the barstards.

At least have a look at the site, check each thing out seperatly or chose your bike and see everything they have for it.

http://www.hardracing.com/Catalog.htm

[MATTK6]

man they have some nice gear there, and the prices dont seem to be bad either, when and if i ever get some momey together i might have to have another look and get something:ayyy:

[dungbeetle]

donovan from sum of all parts has joined the site:D his username is sumofallparts
you can prolly pm him if ya need a price or ill start a post. hopefully he will have time to reply in it.

[Marcus]

I ended up with the carbon one, the normal one looks a little cheap and while I hate carbon look crap, it looks better made

Ok, I got my gel seat the other day. Pushing it by hand it feels the same, but sitting on it feels a bit better. I havent ridden the bike so I cant tell you how much better my ass feels.

Feels a touch heavier then the stock item :mad:

It feels a little higher and is wider then the stock one, so if your short, be prepared for tippy toes. The seat feels a little bulky between the legs then before.

Not sure on seating position, but feels a little higher at the back. Foot position shouldnt change much.

So far, im going to have to say that for long rides it will be fitted. For track days and blasts around sydney, I will want the stock seat as its thinner, less padded so I will be able to feel the bike sliding around.

I will update at a later date when I get some saddle time. Probably not this weekend as im going to skirmish on Saturday and might be raining/tired/sore on sunday.

For me, I might have been better off with one of the strap on ones you can get from MCA's (not sure how much they are) considering how far and few full day rides are becoming- I blame my mates

Attached pic's so you can see the difference.

[Motovated]

Jas, I will want to order my pipe in the next couple of weeks, any idea when this group order may go ahead mate?

Hi Motivated, I thought you might have seen this post sorry mate, but I'm getting zero responses from the USA guys so I decided back then not to continue to email and stress about no responses... whats funny is even since then I still havent had a reply !

[Motovated]

No worries, I hadn't read all the posts so wasn't sure what was happening.
