Hi can anyone recommend a dealer/supplier who can source and ship out quickly. I'm getting a bit tired of the "it's got to come from Italy" excuse! Stuff for my VFR's got to come from Japan and I nearly always get it next day. I know Honda have a massive infrastructure, but I'd expect gaskets to be an off the shelf part. Guess I'm expecting too much, but if I didn't have my Honda I'd be knackered now as bikes are my only mode of transport and 4-5 days for a fuel pump gasket(which is leaking for no reason) is crazy. I thought Aprilia were supposed to have sorted their spares issues?
Got that off my chest, feel better now, still love the bike though.

I've found InMoto to be good and Speedaway are generally OK.

Worth ringing though as not all dealers will have all parts in stock - most times you can find somewhere that has what you want.

Ive used both the following who now seem to be the same people -

Good experiences from each of them when they ran on their own.
My only problem has been that the Falco has been too reliable, so I have not had an opportunity to use either of them very often.
My old Aprilia dealer (Now defunct) used to use both of them when he needed anything quick!
