I've sold my Hawk and now bought a 1973 Triumph TR5T motorcycle.

I wish to buy some parts from a place in Dallas, Texas. The place will not answer my e-mail and appears to have hung up the phone - presumably on seing a +44 number calling and seems to only deal with USA adresses. The shop does not do internet sales or payments although parts inquiries are made via the web site. Payment is by telephone.

Is there anybody in the USA (somebody who has classic Triumph motorcycles would be ideal) who might assist me by getting hold of some parts? What I'd like is for a kind soul to purchase a few bits for me and send them to the UK. I know absolutely nobody in the USA, nor does anybody in my family

It's not entirely straightforward due to the seller's procedures. It will need either a phone conversation or a parts inquiry through their web site followed by them calling you to take payment and address details. If the stuff is available, you then let me know how much I owe you. I pay by whatever means you wish and you send the stuff to me in the UK. You would need to make out a customs declaration fixed to the package in whatever way the USA requires. Total parts cost will be about $100 I expect, plus any taxes and US shipping.

I suppose it may help if you are in one of those non-tax states like Oregon but I don't understand US sales tax, use tax or in some states no tax. I'll just have to take whatever happens on the chin.

The irony of parts that I want for a British bike that are only available in the USA is not lost!

Thanks for reading this.
