Hello all;
Here is update on ordering parts from Motobins to Canada.  I think it is going to be more expensive than i thought.  Canada customs charges taxes, duty, possible brokerage fee on any orders above $20 Canadian.

May be I should get it all shipped to USA, since I am going to be in St.Louis next week for a conference and thinking about getting the stuff mailed there.  Now I have no idea how US customs/taxes/duties will play out..any experience or suggestions r welcome.

I also tried Capital Cycle, their quote was significantly different (more ofcourse) from the prices listed on their website.

Hope to get some good pointers for all u wise guys. Thanks

I believe if you order its from the States there should be no customs/taxes/duties thanks to the North American Free Trade Act of 1994.
 
Just call Bobs BMW (http://www.bobsbmw.com/) in Jessup MD USA 301.497.8949. Folks over there are plenty friendly and they seem to have a very good stock of older airhead parts; plus shipping will be much cheaper than crossing the Atlantic.
