That is if you are willing to wait andORDER EVERY SINGLE THING you buy....!!!!:wi:

I drive to MT Baker Moto, like I did today, to date I have always been able to buy stuff over the counter....! Never ordered anything because they do not have it in stock. Except for my body armour, I needed a wee bit larger size....:tup:They have lots of KTM gear etc, always. At the moment they have a 30% off deal on all gear.

or

Order online at Cyclezone, excellent service and ship it to "Ship Happens" in Sumas, again excellent service. Best prices too....

I am all for keeping my $ in Canada but then at least have something for me to buy at a reasonable price.....:dr:eek:r return my calls...

I work for that $, so I want the best dealfor it.....!

I just order through the closest dealer and the parts usually take 3 -5 days just like when I order for Japanese bikes. KTM has their North American parts warehouse located in Ohio so if your dealers parts dept is on the ball there shouldn't be any long waits. One nice thing about owning a KTM is that you get a parts book with the bike that shows each part and gives the part# so there is a lot less chance of screwing up when ordering. Watch out for those KTM filters: KTM unit made in Tailand $33, Hi Flo unit also made in Tailand $12. Another example is OEM Mikuni fuel pump $120+ , Picked up nearly identical pump $29 US + a rebuild kit for $11. Rear wheel bearings KTM $29 US each, Auto warehouse $2.79 each. So on some things it pays to shop around. Heeters performance centre has the steeringhead bearings complete for Around $30 US as well as the fuel pumps, KTM lists one steeringhead bearing at $47 US. I guess prices depend on how many middlemen handle the part before you receive it.

Have you had any problems with any companies refusing to ship because the credit card billing address and shipping address are different? A lot of companies offer free shipping within the U.S. I wonder if they would still honor that if they know it's going to a P.O. Box. Also, do you find the shipping rates any more reasonable by having stuff shipped from ship happens to Canada?

Wow dude, you sure dug up an old thread. I realise you are up in Edmonchuck sothis may not be valuale info, but "Ship Happens" is a shipping office just across the border in Sumas,WA. Less than 30 minute drive from Surrey,Langley, Abbotsford,Chilliwack so a lot of people have stuff shipped there then go across the border and pick it up.

This can save some shipping dollars, and brokerage fees. Also, some companies don't ship to Canada, so this is a good option for them.

I just went down and picked up my new prophylactic :shock:yesterday from Ship Happens.
