    Hi all,

    I fancy a set of their flush mount indicators but wondered if any of you have bought from them? Did you get stung with any duty tax etc and if so, how much can I expect to pay?

    Thanks

    Steve

    Quality product and service matey......in fact Roger Watsen even rang up to confirm some details.

    Thoroughly recommended and had them on my old GSXR and now on my Repsol for the past 6 years...no problems at all.

    Had mine on for a while now and they work and look like they did when new. Took a while to get them as they were made to order but well worth the wait.

    Can't remember the duty, but I expect it will be the usual charge by Customs for handling fee, last month I got stung £13.95 handling fee plus £14 import tax on a £86 item.

    Sounds great guys. I just don't want to pay double if I get stung for import tax. They do look great though and they're taking order from next Monday!

    So around £30 isn't too bad then exfire! Nice one. I had in my mind that it'd be like £60/70 extra for some reason...

    Arthur has them on his blade and they do look good, I'd buy them if I had an 04-07 model

    Got home and I have a lovely note from Royal Mail asking £20.01 in customs charges (including an £8 handling fee!!) :(

    But on the plus side, my Watsen indicators are in the country at last :D :D

    That's (sort of) good news! When did you order them? My order was placed about 1 month ago and the email said 10/12 weeks!
