Accessories and modifications for canadians
« on: August 31, 2011, 05:43:35 AM »
Hi all

Just bought a new 2011 C14 and loving it...coming from a Triumph Speed Triple.. its luxury as far as touring goes .

I know there are many places to buy accessories in the USA or UK.

Does anyone know ,where to get stuff in Canada or order parts without the ripoff of brokerage fees and duties?


thanks

Also if you insist your parts from the USA are shipped with United States Postal Service there is no brokerage fees with Canada post when it is delivered and there is NO duty on motorcycle parts entering Canada. Make sure the package is marked motorcycle parts and not just "parts".

       Depending on where you are(close to the border) chjeck if there are any parcel drop services on the US side close to you.
Here in Manitoba we have several to choose from in North Dakota which accept our parcels for a nominal fee ( usually less than 10$CDN )
You can then order using the free US shipping often offered.
I would still recommend supporting your local Canadian dealers first but i also live in the real world.

Good advice! Nothing pisses me off more than a company that offers free shipping anywhere in the USA and then charges an outragous amount to ship to Canada.  >:(
