Has everyone been able to get them now or are there still people waiting on "Back-Orders"??  If they have become available, have you been ordering thru a dealership or HDL AND HOW MUCH?? My local dealership quoted me $143. and I've heard that some were able to buy OEM's for under $100.  Upon hearing the $143.  I cancelled my back-order.

If you order from HDL when they are having a sale they are quite a bit less than 100 bucks. I just ordered one during the Labor day sale...backordered, no info on how long it might be.
I don't expect it to be that long now that Honda has a new supplier; we'll see.

Mine from HDL in Aug 2011 was $63.39.  I have heard that they have since raised the price to 80 something.

I got 2 delivered from Dillion bro last week. Was around $76.00 each. If you need one I can send one for what it cost me plus shipping. Just let me know.

Have received all 3 backordered from HDL.  Were about $80 each with shipping.  Sold 1, put 1 on and keeping a spare for the other Valk.  Will get the one taken off in the mail to California for the great rebuilding project with Free Pass.

Ordered mine on 9/21 for $75.75 shipped.  Haven't received the part or an email telling me it has shipped.  Hoping it's sometime soon as I want to replace mine.

I emailed asking the expected ship date and HDL sent me this:

That item is backordered with Honda and has been so for over a year . They just recently began releaseing some, but based on their current release rate we do not expect to have yours for 4 to 6 weeks.

I phoned the "cyclepartsnation"at 3PM--No answer--Lmtrc=(Left message to recall) asked if item was "in stock", how much and do they bill upon reciept of the order or not until the item is shipped. Am awaiting response.  If still available for anything under $80., I'll place the order.  Although, I pretty reluctant to place an order and have it immediately charged to my card but possibily not delivered for months!

I just re-read the string and see that I didn't get back to the board after "cyclepartsnation" responded via a returned Phone call.  She confirem that at this time, the $60.00 price was correct, however, all the U-joint orders were still on back order.  Mind you that several days ago.

I ordered one from HDL this morning and, with the 15% off, got it for about $57. I have no idea yet when it'll show up, but that's fine as I don't need it at the moment.

I ordered one to have as a spare. Ordered it July 4th 2011. It came on Saturday October 8th 2011. Hopefully supply is catching up with demand.

got mine from HDL today.  It looks like factory, not some sort of rebuilt so I now have a usable used spare and a new spare.  No one seemed to need my used one before, so I dont suspect there will not be a rush for it now, I may try the rebuild on it just for fun
