Re: WTB: Grips & throttle tube

We do tend to get a few bikes not sold in the U.S. but in general we really pay big time for anything on 2, 3 or 4 wheels. When I bought the Gel seat for my Vstrom it was $160 in the U.S. or $344 in the GWN. I bought here so I would have a dealer to fall back on if anything went bad. Shipping and returning things across the border is close to financial suicide. Now I just have stuff shipped to a delivery store on the South side of the border and go get it.
Buying tires here is costly as all get out. I get 2 for the price of 1, plus a nice drive, a tank of cheaper gas, lunch and still save money over the price here.
