Who do we love in the US? Who gives great communication, service? Who actually has what you need in stock?

AF1 for new stuff, MG Cycle for old stuff, Moto International for both.

I love AF1. I got my "C" tappet kit from them: reasonable price, fast delivery. I have ordered just a few tiny things like O-rings and washers: no minimum order, they will ship anything just as quick. The prices are decent and any part number I have entered from the Moto Guzzi parts catalog has been available. Just ordered a new alternator for $145, can't complain about that. I was even able to order a new "GRiSO" decal for the fuel tank.

With Trump putting "America First", and slapping large tariffs on Canadian products, many Canadian families are choosing to support other trade partners instead. I have found Stein-Dinse from Germany to be a great option. I bought my Tappet kit for 25% less than AF1. All I had to do is e-mail them and ask for a discount. I think AF1, and MG cycle are excellent, but there are European options that are just as good. Just depends were you want to spend your hard earned dollars.

Hey Norm What type of extra costs did you pay ( taxes , duties , broker fees) by purchasing from Germany to Canada?
Thanks The other Norm from Canada

Ugh, this is the one place on the internet we can avoid politics and the T-word. Can we keep it that way?

Surprising , but I only paid the GST ( unavoidable, for any destination in the world) and 10$ brokerage. I couldn't believe it. They were excellent to deal with, fast service, I had my parts in 5 days. Super happy with the transaction. I encourage others to check them out.

Sorry, I won't use the T word again. I agree, no political views. Just trying to show other good sources for Guzzi parts.

Many things have changed since 2017. Moto Guzzi dealers have gone by-by all over. I know who AF1 is as I too have purchased from them.
But I would like other choices to consider buying from. What are today's choices for parts and accessories ?

In Europe, Stein Dinse & TLM and for the older Guzzis, HMB are the regular sources. In the States, other than the usual mentioned by others, Pinwall Cycles parts out the more modern ones, pricing is variable, but definitely worth looking at.

The T word? Wasn't there a series of T-monikered bike? T; T3; T5 - I deem these acceptable...

Moto International is no more. Optimum Performance Motorsports in Kirkland, WA (just a bit NE of Seattle) is now the local Guzzi dealer and service center. I have not had occasion to check them out yet, but I have heard good things about them and their website is pretty professional looking.
