Didn't you see my thread with the sidecar CB250RS in British racing green?

Xerxes is a retro biker in a young man's body! I think he needs the silk scarf and pudding basin helmet and aviator glasses to go with the look!

...in case you hadn't noticed - I AM BLOODY CHUFFED!

Your "Ok!shon" has just (if it's all worked proper) got me a new swingarm (Bell Nicky - or Nicky Bell) for the Duc! WOOO HOOOO!

Now just have to get it from Japan to NZ.... ...just waiting for Ok!shon to do their next bit...

Hopefully, Santa will get here after the swingarm - but I won't complain if he delivers it personal like...

Bling coming!!

Hey, cool man They might take their time doing `their bit' -- they might've gone a bit faster in my opinion. Hope the fees and shipping doesn't bite too hard either, but it should still end up cheaper overall than sourcing it locally.

Have to go over there some day, sounds like a biker's paradise -- apart from the insane licence tests and lack of twisty bits around town (which is a bit hard to get away from).

Fees were Ok - < US$50. Have to wait for the vendor to get the stuff to the Okshon warehouse, so they can start the shipping process...

Hell - cheaper than local? I couldn't even track down a standard swingarm for the Duc - let alone a handmade braced aftermarket one locally. In fact, the only aftermarket one I could find, was around NZ$1200 new, from the UK... God knows how much a genuine new one would be... (This one has cost me about NZ$580.00 so far - plus shipping to come).

If this shipment goes well, then I'll definitely be doing a few more deals! I spotted all sorts of goodies for my various bike and cage projects on the Yahoo.jp auctions...

Dunno about riding over there. Far too much traffic and regulation for my liking. Europe (in the mountains - any of them) is much more fun...
