Well the only way to reduce them would be to find a lad who would also need a complete fairing and hence buy 2 at the same time. I'm not that good at computing numbers, but that woud half down the shipping costs ... Did anyone said "group buy" ? BTW, has anyone already ordered one of these ? Is that quality work ?

With the shipping costs to mainland Europe, they have to set the price pretty high, quite the price of a complete 2nd hand OEM fairing. These people don't even change the picture on the ad and won"t admit where it comes from (or at least the ad does not show this up)!

The fact is that since there's a sea between mainland Europe and the UK, the shipping costs are very high (event though I live 50km from the shore where you're supposed to see the UK when it's sunny). With these shipping costs, we'd rather look at the US. Shipping costs are still higher, but dollar to euro conversion ratio is rather advantageous. But that's a good thing you remind me of this site. I'm going to have a look on it again just to see what has changed since the last past months ... well, it's rather late around here now, so it's gonna have to wait until tomorrow.
