bmv Posted July 22, 2018 Share Posted July 22, 2018 Hello, In my search for a gear shifter/pedal for my '91 VFR, I came upon this: bike-parts-honda.com Has anyone had any dealings with them? If so, good or bad feedback? Thanks, Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member Contributer gll429 Posted July 22, 2018 Member Contributer Share Posted July 22, 2018 i cant find a location for them..but it looks like europe.. the trust page cert is in france.. i would use https://www.partzilla.com/ which is in georgia or https://www.ronayers.com/ which i located in north carolina. sometimes one or the other has the same part cheaper.

Sweeper Posted July 22, 2018 Share Posted July 22, 2018 Mason City Honda (IA) gives a 15% discount to VFRD members. Call them with a part number. I’ve saved a ton.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer JZH Posted July 29, 2018 Member Contributer Share Posted July 29, 2018 I'm not sure who owns bike-parts.fr (and all of the other variations of that original URL), but they are indeed based in France. I have used them a few times over the last 15 years or so, but they're usually more expensive than CMSNL (which has a similar business and is based in the Netherlands). They (and CMS) are sometimes able to get parts that regular dealers cannot; not sure why that is so, but they do have good suppliers. David Silver Spares in the UK is also in the NOS Honda parts business (do they still have a US branch?) Nobody in the world discounts Honda OEM parts like the big US suppliers, Partzilla, Ron Ayers, Motosport, etc., so if it's a US-spec part and not discontinued, they're always the cheapest--by far. [Edit: I've never used Mason City, but that sounds like it would also be worth a try.] If it's something you need, and only bike-parts has it, it will be expensive, but you'll get it.

bmv Posted July 29, 2018 Author Share Posted July 29, 2018 Thanks Gents! Hadn't thought of RonAyers or Partzilla. I'll keep them in mind. The part I'm looking for is discontinued, I suspect either of these two might not have one kicking around ... although it never hurts to try. Motomatic here on VFRD had what I'm looking for. Its onroute! Thanks again. Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
