Crash Bar - You guys tried cruisercustomizing?

[Swakoo]

planning to get a crash bar, but probably avoid sengkwang as they are too expensive. last quoted was $380!

 

thinking of crusiercustomizing.com, recommended by a fellow shadow buddy. price after shipping also cheaper

 

but just wanna get more opinions, see who else get from them before...

Ive ordered some chrome accessories from them last year.

In fact im expecting a second delivery in two weeks.

The prices are cheaper and lots of discounts on selected items.

They ship via post so it takes some time to get to you.

So far no problems. Only worry is customs payment when

it arrives here.

 

Btw, im from the Philippines.

 

Hope that helped. Cheers.

[Swakoo]

so you are in phillipines?

 

hmm what kind of custom charges? your custom charges you?

[Scorpion69]

From my knowledge you do not need to pay custom charges in Singapore unless u are not buying for your own usage or your purchase exceed the amount set by the custom.

 

Correct me anyone if I am wrong.

so you are in phillipines?

 

hmm what kind of custom charges? your custom charges you?

Anything under US$100, there is no tax unless its for commercial sales.

Anything over, its 30% of cost of item.

 

Cheers.

http://www.cruisercustomizing.com is a good site for metric bikes. They charge a flat fee of 25% for delivery.

 

If you have a Honda cruiser, then i'd recommend http://www.hondadirectline.com. They are a bit cheaper that cc.com

 

What's nice is that also have 10% sales during US holiday weekends, like Christmas, Easter, Veterans day etc.

Visited http://www.hondadirectline.com and found out that they don't

ship to the Phillippines.

 

What a bummer!

hmm 25% for shipping... so if the crashbar i buy is $150 USD... that's almost USD$40 for shipping...

 

saw the link.. but the site is not so navigatable.. and don seem to suggest shadow aero 750 2004 model... mine is 2004 model
