Bmw parts at reasonable prices in Vancouver??
Hi there,
After a few miles on the road (from France to Malaysia), my girlfriend and I finally arrived in Vancouver, got the bike off customs, and back on the road to Montreal.
150 km after vancouver, on the 99 highway, a few kilometers after Pemberton, there's a rough pass, and the clutch, which was bad in the first place, would just not accept the climbing. Our nice K100 1990 model/oural side car is not up for the job.
* I need to replace the friction plate, the diaphragm spring, the rear main oil seal, the 6 bolts and washers, the O ring, and a few other things. In most BMW shops in Vancouver, the parts have to be ordered from Germany, and the costs are very "bmw like".
* Is there anything such as motorworks or moto-bins in north america, who sell bmw parts at reasonable prices?
* Subsidiary question: looking for any building/mechanic/french or philosophy teaching/horse caretaking job to cover the costs of the stay in the region while waiting for the parts. Anyone interested?
