Subject: RE: AFRICA TWIN mit ALU-KOFFERSYSTEM



For the AT and the other Hondas I have owned I have normally bought parts/accesories at one of the Honda dealers in south/eastern Norway. The local dealer do not have any AT parts in stock. I have not neaded any big parts for several years, but most small stuff has taken 2-8 days. 

I beleive that JECO MC in Oslo is big enough to have some parts in stock.  I bought my main stand and crash bow here. And also MC Marine in Bergen should be OK. Maybe because the AT and Transalp is used for parcel delivery in Bergen (all Year). This company was tha only one I found able to send me a clutch wire when the old one broke last Christmas.

And somtimes parts like brakepads, oilfilters and stuff like this is bought from som of the mail order companies.

When I am looking for special equipment I usually find it through magasines, and have the dealer order the right pieces.
