Calling Out Popo500efi

Alright Stephen, lookie what I took off my bike..... FINALLY !!!!! It is off and ready to come to you. I still haven't gotten a shipping quote on it, mainly because it was still on the bike, however, I will get it put in a box and take it to the post office and get a shipping quote tomorrow or Tuesday. I don't remember the dollar fiqure I quoted you on the frame but I DID tell you I would sell it to you for what ever it cost me in materials to build me a new one. It cost me $32.00 bucks in materials ($14.00 bucks MORE than when I originally started making these things) to build a new one so if you want it for $35.00 plus the shipping then it's yours, if not then let me know and I'll sell it to someone else or just put it on ebay.

great i will take it. if you just get me a shipping quote and your mailing adress i will get a money order out to you asap. do you still have the pm i sent you with my mailing adress?

[Dirtbmw20]

Yes, I still have the PM you sent me with the address. I already have it boxed up here at work with me, I just gotta take it by the post office and see what it will cost to ship.

Don't I have to put some kind of value on the item and in turn, doesn't THAT value determine what you pay at the border ????? or something like that ???? I guess what I'm getting at is I don't want to put a value on this thing that will make you have to pay EXTRA when you get it, so what kind of value do you suggest I put on it ???

[OnlyPolaris]

no the value doesn't determine how much i pay. the exhaust i bought had a value written on it of 200 and i paid 17 when i picked it up. i think the value just has to do with if it goes missing.

[Dirtbmw20]

OK cool, I just didn't want to put a high dollar value on it and then you have to pay that much more. What exactly is that ????? Is that a border fee that yall guys have to pay extra for ??

[OnlyPolaris]

ya i think that it is just a border fee.

Send it USPS and mark it used. UPS will kill you with broker charges.

Vern, I am going to send it with USPS but I didn't know I could mark it as "used". I wasn't even gonna try UPS or DHL going into Canada. Will marking it as "used" lower his border fee or something ???

[OnlyPolaris]

that would be sweet if it did. but i dont think it will be much anyway.

hey man just wondering what all the extra holes in the bar where you mount the overflow bottle are for.

Two of the holes are for the overflow bottle and two of the holes are for the fill neck. Here is a close up pic of how I had them attached.

[OnlyPolaris]

YES, I will definitely get a quote tomorrow. I worked all by myself today, my partner had the day off so I didn't get any breaks or lunch or nothing today, I never got to leave the dam place. He'll be back tomorrow and I'll try and run to the post office early in the morning before lunch.

[OnlyPolaris]

sounds good.
