Good to see that someone is finally stocking them in Oz. Price is still a bit high.....with the current exchange rate its still cheaper from overseas. Title: Re: Bling bits Post by: Spider on December 13, 2009, 12:04:02 AM yeah, but your getting knowledge, support and a bloke who rides a 748R.....so I mean maybe the 20% rule I use applies? (I'f it's within 20% I support the local!)

I;m getting sick of most of the crap you buy fading oiut within a couple of weeks to months!! [roll] Anodised stuff fades no matter what, I don't think I have ever heard anyone say there's has never faded. I don't think the prices are that high, Motowheels have the E-Box for $1199 plus shipping. I'd say that's pretty close to right on US money. Especially considering most retailers here apply the usual 100% mark up. Title: Re: Bling bits Post by: mattyvas on December 13, 2009, 12:10:56 AM yeah, but your getting knowledge, support and a bloke who rides a 748R.....so I mean maybe the 20% rule I use applies? (I'f it's within 20% I support the local!) I think 748R is a little vintage for this guy, bring it up to 2009 and you'll be on the money. Title: Re: Bling bits Post by: Dockstrada on December 13, 2009, 12:15:03 AM Yeah he's a pretty cool guy always ready to help.He has some nice gear all quality.I will be visiting his site regularly this will be for sure [thumbsup]

You just need to message him and let him know you are from here [thumbsup]

You can't tell everyone about the bits you buy. People have to find out in time. When you don't fit them in a hurry and apply a little grease in the right places they work a treat. If you fit them in a mad rush cause you are going out on a ride and want your new bling on you end up calling yourself a knob while talking to yourself inside your helmet.
