Who do you recommend?
Something wrong with Directline parst web. Impossible to view chart and check out. Not possible to log in with my account either.
Any other suppliers?

Agree, I got my Honda OEM rear shock bushings and brake pads at Procaliber cheaper than anywhere else I could find and they even waived shipping charges since was pretty darn close to their minimum order amount needed for free shipping.

I usually go to my local dealer ship with the online prices, and ask them to get close to it. Usually they do.
But with the alt brushes I just bought, I got the 8 of them from procaliber, and was happy in the price, along with the other small items I bought and the shipping cost. I had to pay state taxes, since shipping was within their state. It was still cheaper than anywhere else I checked.

http://www.partzilla.com/ Always good prices. Not sure of their support for international shipments.

I just did some comparison shopping between ProCaliber, Partzilla and Honda Direct Line.
My parts list was as follows:
ProCaliber Partzilla HDL
Rear Brake Pads 19.33 21.75 19.92
Exhaust Gasket (X3) 6.54 7.98 9.48
Rear Caliper Bolt Pin 4.41 5.40 5.78
Shipping 23.18 5.95 7.50
Total 53.46 41.08 42.68
From this I will order from HDL. They aren't the cheapest but they're close and they are sponsors of our club.

I found the same thing with Procaliber.....heavy duty shipping costs. They get reasonable if ordering over $100 at a time.

I shop them all...and have ordered from them all. Partzilla, BikeBandit, ProCaliber, CheapCycleParts, etc. So far I have no complaints other than extended ship times on some parts. For a vendor across the pond I've ordered from David Silver Spares in the UK as well (some may remember the run we had with them on alternator covers).

It worked fine now.
Yesterday I tried from an old laptop in my garage (with XP)
I believe their website don't support XP.
I have used Directline parts for more than 10 years and I'm very satisfied with them.

It has been many years since they were a sponsor of this club. |

I've found that Amazon is competitive with parts pricing in some things. If you're a member of Amazon Prime, you get free two day shipping.
