Yamiya - All quality products?
« on: January 29, 2009, 02:27:44 AM »
Hello,

Looking for a general consensus on Yamiya products.

Are they all made to a good quality?

Whats been purchased from them in the past, and have they lasted as long as expected?

G;Day Odie, yeah mate, they're good, lots of OEM or good repro stuff. Not always cheap, but worth what they charge. Cheers, Terry. ;D
I was feeling sorry for myself because I couldn't afford new bike boots, until I met a man with no legs.

So I said, "Hey mate, you haven't got any bike boots you don't need, do you?"

Bought a number of items from them the past 1 1/2 years.  In fact, I am expecting another package from them today.  Top quality in every way...including service.  They ship faster than people in the USA.

They have stuff that isn't available anywhere else. I've ordered a couple of things from them, no probs.

Check availability/prices stateside first. A lot of their stuff is still available from Honda.

Yup, I see stuff sell on eBay for more than I pay at my Honda dealer all the time.

I love the exhaust frange. Spelled perfectly in my opinion. What is the approximate conversion rate to yen?

Just click on the English button on the right and it will convert from yen to US dollars.
