Author Topic: Suppliers in Canada - List (Read 4233 times)

Prospect · « **on:** May 12, 2021, 11:46:18 AM »

I'd like to encourage Canadian forum members to add to this list of suppliers I'm creating here.

Finding Canadian suppliers of various parts is getting harder and harder. The cost of shipping from the US is absurd.

Please keep the description brief so it's easier to search through.

I'll start

http://www.bulbscanada.com/
Various hard to find light bulbs (like speedo and tach lights)

https://ebay.ca/usr/gumtwo
Canadian supplier of seat covers

https://www.clubplug.ca/
Spark plugs

www.kapscomoto.com in Pickering Ont. best prices on batteries. Ship via Canada Post. Reasonable!

www.vintagecb750.com in Ontario too. Fair pricing and free shipping over a certain amount.

Bolts+ Stores. Several in Ontario. Huge selection of metric hardware in stainless too. My Peterborough store has excellent counter staff. Helpful!

Pete's Superbike out of Montreal for tires. They started the discount motorcycle tire business in Canada. I'm paying less for tires today than 15 years ago..

https://www.petes-superbike.com/index.php

Fortnine has good tire pricing. All Ball bearings as well. Free shipping after a $49 order.

Diablo Cycle for reproduction decals, limited line of Buchanans stainless spokes..

Here is an article on how to avoid the outrageous “brokerage” fees that UPS charges. Works well if you are close to a CBSA (Canadian Border Services) office.

Pacific Fasteners for any non- ferrous bolts and hardware. Not sure how their shipping works but they are the cheapest source that I have found. Excellent if your are in Toronto or Vancouver. Miles cheaper than Fastenal etc..

AFE Graphics.com

Check out this site. It’s well disguised, but Marc O., lives a few miles north of me and supplies most of the decals you see listed elsewhere. He’s just south of Lindsay, ON. There are no Honda products on the site because Honda chases down patent infringements (despite the fact they no longer supply these decals!). Check out “customers’ rides” and you’ll see lots of Hondas. Enquire and Buy Canadian!

Herbrandt Gasket Company. Couple of guys in Cambridge Ont. See them on EBay or find their website. They make the finest gaskets, totally reusable and when I needed something for my Benelli SEI, they took the old one and made a perfect replica. Fantastic work, good people and ridiculously fair pricing! Give them a try. John D.

John, I haven't had luck finding these guys. Do you have a # or link?

I did find a used head gasket on Ebay for $28..... Holy crap!

I will dig out my shop notes and see what info I have. What Gasket do you need?

I've bought copper head gaskets for my 550 race engine from Cometic through Dynoman, but delays and prices are getting silly.

BenelliSEI · « **Reply #11 on:** October 17, 2021, 03:06:24 PM »

I’m still looking for their contact info, but I’m pretty sure they only made soft cover gaskets and some Kawasaki ex. manifold gaskets.

I'm looking for a seat foam supplier (I have the cover from the supplier listed above) in Canada. Looking for a cb750k1 and preferably already cut to size. Thanks

I had my cases media blasted by Ed from sanemotionmoto.com They look like new. Very reasonable price. He is located in Scarborough North of the 401.

What media did he use? Look great!

Glass. He rinses it 3 times and blasts it again with air to get it all out.

You've probably clicked on their ads and noticed the hard working stock girls.

https://www.siriusconinc.com/

Here at the Old Honda Rescue Centre I get quite a few parts from Sirius Co Inc. I like their bulk shipping (fill a Fed Ex box for $20 to the East Coast) and even other larger items are reasonable. Some limited tire choices too. They actually still had some stock when COVID seemed to bring other suppliers to a stand still.

Some of their stuff occasionally ships from their US affiliate but even so its still fast and duty free.

If I order a carb kit on Monday or Tuesday, I'll have it by the weekend.

Northern Winds Powder Coating.

Dave used to own a powder shop near Oshawa-Bowmanville. Retired and does outstanding work from his home shop south of Blackstock. Cash works best.He did the black lacquer on my Sandcast and it is superb. He also coated parts for me and did perfect work.

Dave. Home: (905)986-1695. Cell: (905)441-2809.

Clint at Ox Motorcycles in Winnipeg. I try and buy when I can from him as I know he is a very small and independent shop. He also lists some spare parts on eBay for sale and does some pretty cool fabrication work with custom bits to add to your Honda. Check him out

Does anyone know of a supplier for repro fuel tanks?

+1 for Wolfgang at Laverda Canada (aka Columbia Car and Cycle). I bought Ikons from him and he gave me recommendations for spring rates. Ikon shocks are excellent quality.

RippleRockRacers.com. Hindle Stainless exhaust, triple trees etc for Honda. Kemp Archibald is great to deal with.

Batteryclerk.ca

Super low prices and good looking batteries.

Saskbattery.com is 2 plus hours away from me but has free shipping in canada and 1 year warranty which almost nobody does on powersport batteries...

Tires from REVCO.ca in Quebec. 2-3 day delivery to Ontario and excellent pricing.

Update: the Continental tire I needed for the Varadero arrived in a few days. Free delivery and the price was almost 10% less than the usual vendors I use in Ontario!

BenelliSEI · « **Reply #30 on:** August 14, 2023, 06:55:55 PM »

Shipping a bike across Canada, or heavy box of parts? Check out Hasslefreeshipping.ca. Henry and his wife (or daughter) drive back and forth across the country, doing private deliveries. 1/2 the price of anyone else. He has his own schedule, so best to not be a RUSH shipment.

BenelliSEI · « **Reply #31 on:** February 10, 2024, 02:18:00 PM »

I ordered chain and sprockets for the Honda Varadero and a cb750 chain fom REVCO.ca I the past few days. $10 delivery charge and prices significantly lower then my usual sources. Need to remember to check them out more frequently.

Gumto seat covers, I believe the pattern is sewn in the seat, not "bonded" as the original is. Cliff.

Today I spoke with Lyle Griffin, in the parts dept. of Schrader Honda in Yorkton, SK, Canada. (306)783-3333. He builds his own bikes, attached is a photo of his “off-road Ascot”. They have been open since the early 70’s and have lots of NOS parts! Very helpful, he had the emblems I needed for my K6 that are NLA from Honda! Check them out.

BenelliSEI · « **Reply #34 on:** August 22, 2024, 06:56:44 AM »

Ordered another zero maintenance battery for this project from Kapscomoto.com

At $54 and free shipping via Canada Post, these seem to be a great deal. I’ve had one in my K1 for +4 years now. Don’t buy anything else from them but these.

John - have not heard of that brand, was curious and did a search. Appears like they are available in the States at WalMart for U.S.$39 with free shipping.
