Ridiculous postal charges:
Two circlips from the Netherlands (Heidens) = 45 euros
Two circlips from the US (Z1 enterprises) $135
Two circlips from the US (mikesxs) $79
Two circlips from England (Yambits) £13
Two circlips from Australia (Geoffsxs) Bought some circlips from hIm, apparently he doesn't know there are different size piston pins. Same bloke thinks it OK to have 3-4mm of thread showing on spokes.
Add to that the cost of the circlips
Heidens. 2.89 euros plus postage 45 euros 48 euros $86Aus
Z1 $4.80 plus postage $135 $140Aus. $220Aust
Mikes $4.80 plus postage $79. $84. $132Aust
Yambits. £3.14 plus postage. £13. £15. $28Aust
Australia, $8.50 £5 $14. $19 but it doesn't matter, he doesn't know there are different size piston pins.
For two piston pin circlips, Circlips are 20mm round and 1.2mm thick and weight the equivalent of three mickey hairs.
Where the hell do they get these prices? Z1 enterprises are out of their cotton picking minds, $220 for two circlips.
I'll try some local bike shops tomorrow. Unfortunately, most have never heard of an XS650.
If I ever get to the states again I won't be posting any postcards back to Oz, that'd cost more than the trip over there.
