Hey Conall,
Here's the situation with the chains as I understand it, as of today's date.
Balancer chain - 92057-1158
$ 235.00 U.S.
$ 167.10 + 15% sales tax CDN (approx. $125.00 U.S. depending where the
Canadian peso is on any given day)
Cam chain - 92057-1226
$ ??? U.S.
$100.91 + 15% sales tax (approx. $75.00 U.S.)
Add ten bucks to the price and I'll ship to anywhere in North America, if a
Lister in need doesn't mind waiting 3 or 4 weeks for the part.
These are not aftermarket parts, OEM parts from Kawi.
Also, if a lister looking for one of these has a friend or relative in
oil-rich Alberta he/she could save another 8% off the sales tax.
Cheers,
Steve

$178.51 US at ronayers.com, still $50 more than CA.

$70.98 US at ronayers.com, about the same.
Great place to look up parts prices without having to make a phone
call. Being east coast I've never ordered from them so I don't know if
s&h is reasonable.

I can not believe this. I'm local to
Ron Ayres Motor Sports and I can never find anything cheaper from
them than I can get elsware, even figuring in shipping most of the
time. It also takes them a week to get anything, because they stock
so little. If I ever need a Bal. Chain though I'll know where to go.

Hey Luc, just skimming the days posts while I have a second here at
work and have to admit that it scares me a little to see you post
about checking out Lance Armstrong's padded butt and jellow wrestling
in two posts that are so close together....just not a mental image
that I can deal with.....Greg
