Yep. Ordered mine from the US, got here quicker than a few bits (DVDs actually) that I'd ordered from the UK

I walked into a main dealer and purchased it from them, got it straight away and it's OE so good to last as Honda intended plus much less hastle. For some things main stealers are just worth it and same with prices, some stuff like the dizzy cap for example, a few people paid half as much for ebay ones but some melted, some weren't great etc etc but an OE Honda one will last 15 years like the original one did and built with that quality in mind. Some stuff just stay well away though
some things are just insanely expensive but smaller stuff like the solenoid gasket with the mesh filter etc, dealers, find one that will give you a discount for being in a club too, can get 10-15% off if you're lucky, think I got 7% or something like that
