Prices in Moscow. Just for information

Post by Admiral » Tue Jun 07, 2011 8:38 pm

Today my Kat received new sprockets and chain (special thanks to Blix and Katgeezer for info) as well as new Dunlop tires. Prices in Moscow (converted into GB pounds):

1. Front JT sprocket (14) - 6£
2. Rear JT sprocket (49) - 32,5£
3. DID chain (525 116 links) - 183,3£
4. Front tire 100/90/18 - 104,4£
5. Rear tire 150/60/17 - 197,5£
6. Assembling and balancing - 74.2£
7. NGK CR8E spark (per one) - 9£
8. HF 138 oil filter - 7,6£
9. Motul 5100 (per litre) - 8£

P.S. It seems that original sprockets have been replaced on my Kat in Japan in 2001. The original mileage for 08.06.2011 -29116 km

Too scary prices depend on high delivery and custom fees in Russia. For example brand new Susuki Haybusa costs in Moscow in dealer's shop apprx. 17600 £

I guess you don't see many new bikes on the road then.
People holding on to the older one which cost just as much to keep going :(

Yes it is! A very huge market of second-hand bikes in Russia. 99% from Japan. Bikes are delivered to Vladivostok from Japan then custom cleaned and sold. To my mind it's cheaper to deliver a bike from Japan then from England. Depens on transport costs. Custom fee is standart in Russia for second-hand bikes and еqual to 30% from bike's price. But since 2011 due to state regulations only official dealers have the right to import second-hand bikes. Before January 1 2011 it was much more easier. Every company or private person could import as much bikes as they want
