Hiya,
Has anybody here had experiences with any of the wreckers over in Australia ?
Reason is, I'm looking over there for a set of forks for my ZX-10. They're pitted and I haven't been able to clean them up enough to stop the forkseals getting chewed out.
Hard-rechroming seems to be either extremely expensive or just not available.
The ZX-10's are not very common in the wreckers here in NZ so looking elsewhere.
Any opinions appreciated.
Cheers,
Nudie.

If you're looking for something local.. the crowd in tauranga who is a newish Honda dealership had some hard to find parts recently.
I'll have to dig out the name and post

Heya,
Found a set at ShowandGo in South Australia.
They want AUS$295 +$30 to $40 freight.
I'm guessing all up that will be nearly $400 in our $$.
Does that sound about right?
