Anyone have any contacts in Japan able to source parts

Post by continentalgt »

Does anybody here know of anyone in Japan that locates parts to order then ships to the UK, I'm looking for a belly pan for an unfaired Honda NC21?

until recently Yahoo japan auctions had the ability to shop for parts in Japan, but the GDPR laws Europe has now implemented mean that door has now closed... unless you have a VPN that you can select a country outside of GDPR regs. they used to have a service that would ship parts from the sellers if they were ok with international shipping.

here's a link I used to make myself sad that I couldn't get hold of parts.

just happened upon this website that ships from Japan worldwide...

shipping from Japan however is another matter altogether... you may need to use a third-party service, but don't expect anything to be quick.

Some of the 400 parts on croooober.com seem remarkably cheap. We just need someone to shoot over there and buy them up. Volunteers?

I did this once before for Graeme France with a bunch of HRC carb stuff, I don't think I will do it again...

not really, it was the using my in-laws address to get stuff sent to caused some friction for me... I think they forwarded it to the UK for me also... easier if I just sort it out while I'm there, but I have no plans at the moment to be in JP.
