I've been ordering FACTORY HONDA parts and sundry service bits from the USA for my Honda - some of the shit in NZ is 6 x the price. The same little genuine Honda parts.

I've found the CB to be crazy cheap on servicing?

You probably don't want to know what I'm used to then...

Right, just purchased the identical Mahle KL145 on Trademe for $29. He can do more (only 1 left at the moment), or can also do an aftermarket filter for about $10.

Get in touch.

There could be a book written with the subject of shared parts across models and brands or is that what parts suppliers sorta do now?
