    just curious as to where posters on here buy their bike accessories

    the kind of accessories I'm talking about are stuff like pazzo/titax levers, gilles/rizoma rearsets etc + upgrades for ducati superbike/italian marques

    any good shops have them in stock here so you can get a look at them

    failing that any dependable websites/ebay shops etc that ship to ireland?

    know of a couple myself but wondering if theres anything better webstores or if i could give the custom to an irish business if they were roughly competitive pricewise for this sort of stuff

    One or two good sites here if you want to buy online:
    Demon Tweeks
    Into Bikes
    Irish based here in Cork:Morrison BHP
    I bought Pazzo levers and a lot of Rizoma stuff for my MT-01 from the Triumph dealer here in Cork and they matched online prices.
    EDIT: Forgot to mention this guy:yamabits.co.uk He does Rizoma stuff too. He's based in Jersey so it's a bit cheaper. Mainly does yamaha stuff but they can get you pretty much anything!

    As he's based in Jersey there's a chance you can be hit for VAT and duty when buying from him. Ad about 25% onto whatever he's charging to cover the chance of getting caught for taxes.

    True there is a chance, but I've been lucky so far :D

    I always thought the UK had a special deal with the EU to allow crown dependences to trade as if they were EU countries so shouldn't get caught for vat.

    Haven't a clue about any of that myself. I've bought a lot of stuff from yamabits in the last year and never been charged by customs. The difference in price from jersey and yamaha here is shocking. I just ordered the alloy rearsets and drive sprocket cover for my MT-01 off them, cost about €640. Thats cheaper than what yamaha/danfay here in Ireland quoted me for just the rearsets last year. So even if you do get hit for customs I reckon your still saving money.
