I will also see if they shoot themselves in the foot with their quoted postage rate to Australia like so many other US sellers.
Just had a reply.....$50 for postage.
I dont mind paying for postage, but i dont like being raped by over zealous postage.
Looks like the Kuryakyn curved layback is staying for now.

Very nice, love the pin striping. Now you need to turn your attention to the performance end of your scooter. There is only one thing better then a very pretty Harley and that is 1 bad *** very pretty Harley!!!! Nice job!!

Nice job i know parts are hard to get overseas and expensive. the pin stripes are amazing coming from a package. you got a good start on the ride but it seems your not going to stop until there is nothing left that you can do. If you hang around here long enough you just keep finding things you can do. There are a lot of clever and innovated folks here and just when you think your done you find one more thing and it never stops no matter how many times you say its done .
