I've ordered some stuff from touratech.com and everything was correctly delivered. Price of accessories 700 Eur, weight 10.5 Kg, price for shipping 82 Eur, customs in Dubai asked for 570Dhs - since I didn't study local tax rules, don't know was it calculated correctly. Package was delivered to customs after 2 weeks. Now I need just bike wich suppose to be delivered latest mid Feb

I too want to order some new bits, anyone want to share shipping costs as it may work out cheaper, maybe we could push for a discount for a larger order from Touratech?

When would you place the order? I require some parts only after the season. During summer i like to get the bike ready with some modifications.

Not too fussed re time, although I would like to get the GPS mount for my new Garmin 60CSx, this can wait however.

Hi guys,

when ordering from touratech make sure when receiving packate in Dubai Central Post your tax is calculated correctly. Touratech attached invoice where is summary on each page i.e. 1st page 300Eur, 2nd page 450Eur, third page 520Eur, last Summary page 780 Eur. Problem in my case was that somebody calculated these together and didn't bather to check Summary price 780 Eur from last page therefore my taxation was calculated from 300+450+520+780=2050 Eur - Tax was then 570 Dhs instaed cca.250 Dhs !!!

Is this thew whole list? 5 places? Seems pretty limited in comparison to all the 4x4 places in Dubai and Abu Dhabi.

Does anybody know where to buy tank bags locally?

[KTM950]

the only places, whoch i came across, are the dealers for the bikes. Each of them offers tank bags for their brands.
Have my doubts that Suzuki has anything on stock. You could try with the Yamaha dealer or (mostly cheaper) order in Europe.
As said in previous posts, Touratech ships and got a good selection.

Anyone had a chance to check this out yet:

I am assuming it would be an hourly rate to be paid to use the facility? I may check it out sometime soon... Maybe on Sunday pop by and have a sneaky beak...
