G'day folks, I guess this question is more relevant to Aussie riders. Can anyone tell me if there is a sales agent for "Highway Dirt Bike" goods here in Aus ? I just tried to order their hand guards/top clamp/mirror set, a total of $248.75. Then the only shipping option provided is via UPS, a whopping $304.98. Be nice to find an alternative. I once heard of a company in the US who will accept small shipments of bike parts from other companies in the US, consolidate into one large shipment, then forward to Australia. Don't know who they are though. Regards, Take care but take a risk
Thanks Kelly and Coffee, that is in line with my expectation of between $30 to $50, since confirmed elsewhere. I've e-mailed HDB for alternative shipping arrangements, but no reply as yet. (its only a couple of days) Don't know what the $300+ was all about, maybe I screwed up the order and I was getting a whole new bike minus the hand guards, mirrors etc.
9/02/2011 Just wish to update the shipping costs. After discussing with Paul from Highway Dirt Bikes, the real cost for shipping those parts to Australia is $55.00. About right for the size/weight etc. Not sure why the original online quote was so high.
That sucks. I was looking at ordering the same, but was put off by postage costs. Just got a secondhand set of Ducati Hypermotard handguards and mirrors instead.
