Genuine NOS Parts from Thailand
« on: May 11, 2016, 10:57:53 AM »
Always seeing Genuine Honda  NOS parts in Thailand on eBay and always skeptical . However, I needed NOS exhausts for my '68 CD125A sloper and only ones I could find were in Thailand , so I took a gamble on them and bid for them. They are MEGA rare so I had to pay a lot of money but when they arrived, they were exactly as described, perfectly packed and I only paid 25 quid duty including Parcelforce's rip off 8 quid adder.

I suppose loads of 'tiddler' bikes were sold there so possibly more NOS spares around than over here. Will definitely take the 'risk' again.

Which of the eBay sites do you look on Ash? UK or one of the others.

Look at this then £2500 for a GL1000 exhaust.

a guy where I work worked at a Honda parts stockist in Thorne Yorks called Bob Allport and he reckonswhen it closed there were absolutely loads of them stocked for wararnty work.
