Was looking at Fleabay just now and scrolling through a few parts. A guy has a petcock on there for $143US plus $13.95 shipping. I thought that was a bit expensive so I just went onto the first Honda parts site that I found. Honda Parts House has them for $96 and free shipping. Its a good thing we can cross reference prices these days on here. This just shows that Fleabay isnt always the cheapest.

Definitely not.... Always check others sites before commit to buying...

 

Yup that's what I do. I also get the Honda part # from the seller and check it against the fische to make sure it is as represented.
I've found that Ron Ayers has te best prices and ship quickly for those if us in the states

 

IMO, being an educated buyer is always the way to go
