Hey 650 Skull. i appreciate that, No offense but i have kept clear of MMM because i believe his prices are Very expensive. The carbs i can understand why they are expensive because of the better quality parts he supplies with them. But other things like Piston Rings, $110 to the UK? How can you justify that when i have just Purchased some rings from the States which only cost me $20 to get here, for the same Service!

hes added $65 just for the P&P on top of the item cost, that makes $45 dollars to be just pure profit., dont know about in the states but in England its an Illegal offence to make someone pay more for Postage than it actually is and if you are actually caught doing it you can face a custodial sentance.

On ebay there is a guy who wants $125.00 US to post a set of blinkers from the States to Aus.
I know where you are coming from, if MMM is racking up the postage i would not buy from him either.

Just bought a top set of forkes for my TXA and the postage was $123.00 US. Tubes and bottom are in excellent shape and i have all the internals as well. All up with what i payed was $215.00 Aus posted. Now i can clean up and sell the bottoms Off of the bike
Would have cost $230.00 Aus just for a new set of tubes from mikes
