The timing belts need to be "checked" at 100K miles. Most people change them at this time. Some folks also change the idler pulleys too. I didn't do that and at 111K miles, all is fine. Can't help as to the place to get parts in Europe. Have you got problems with your final drive unit?

Ouch... are you from Estonia? Anyhow, barring shipping costs, Pinwall has good used final
drives for a fair price. Pinwall says he will ship internationally...

Flanges can  be had from the Honda dealer for a reasonable price, http://www.hdlparts.com/ is
an on-line source.

Sailor7, There is one on eBay UK ending today from a good guy in Southampton, I bought his exhausts about 6 weeks ago. Alternatively Pinwall are a good sources as suggested but shipping can be expensive. Look at David Silver Spares in Suffolk for your new bits as they have better prices than your local Honda shop in my experience.
