:D

Hi All, I recently bought a Arkapovic slip-on for my '05 ZX636 and the cheapest in Australia was about AU$1100, so I did some google searches to see what was about in the world market.

I found a bike website in the US that does credit card orders and even with freight were much cheaper at AU $760 to my door. They are not an ebay store and use fax credit card authorisation forms for making payment.

Their site is;

:arrow: Hard Racing Performance
224 Rolling Hill Rd. Ste. 7A
Mooresville, NC 28117
704-799-2192

They were very professional, fast with communication and fast with the delivery (About 5 business days).

I was very happy with their service, price and really wanted to pass on the site to anyone else who is feed up with high prices on locally sourced stuff.

:!: (I am in no way affiliated with this company, I just had a good experience and thought you all should know).

Stay upright all. :D

sometimes it's not so smooth. i waited 2 months for a set of pistons and because i didn't go through the AUS distributor i was farked. I still saved over $500 though.

US Shops

:? Yeah, I know ordering something sight unseen can be risky, but to date I've bought a lot from OS and not just for the bike and to date, am very happy.


Hard Racing is the first store that I've found that actually states that they have the items in stock, or they won't charge you. I found they replied to emails often in less than an hour and I am sure to buy from them again.

I have been checking out their rotary steering dampener for the ZX6, which seems to be fairly awesome :lol:
