I usually shop at bikebandit or cheapcycle parts, but their shipping is dog slow since they order drop shipped from who knows where. If you wanted to order some power valve parts and wanted them to come in before the end of next week, where would you order from? Want to go ride next sat.... :D

That's a tough one as nobody seems to keep stuff in stock anymore.juliend wrote:I usually shop at bikebandit or cheapcycle parts, but their shipping is dog slow since they order drop shipped from who knows where.

Give Service Honda a call and see if their timing meets yours; they usually have about the best prices anyway. Mebbe you can save enuf to get expedited shipping.

RonAyers gets stuff shipped quickly. Depending on how far away they need to SHIP them, a ground-ship option takes a week anyway.
I have better luck ordering from the local dealer...doesn't generally take more than a few days depending on what day of the week I order 'stuff'.
The remote function with Service Honda is kind'a cool.
I just looked up rear suspension bearings..six in the bike...none in stock.

Yeah...I hear that quite a bit.
My local Kaw dealer sells me parts for pretty much $$ I see on RonAyers...with no shipping. I can order the parts over the phone, they don't call me when they get here, I go pick 'em up!
Just listed that as an option...if'n <your> (insert whomever) dealer isn't a loser.

A little known fact about Service Honda- they normally ship UPS, with a $9 min shipping fee (ouch).
If your purchase will fit into a small standard padded envelope they'll ship it via USPS (no tracking, delivery confirmation, or insurance) at cost. That's the way to go for snap rings or seals and the like.
You have to ask them to do this.
