Opie Oils - nice 'n cheap
« on: February 09, 2016, 12:35:46 pm »
Quite well known already amongst our community, but they surprised me today with the price of spark plugs - the proper NGK Iridium plugs that our bikes like - £6.95 each. (or, rather oddly, £28.96 for a pack of 4)

Shipping was £1.25, making £28.05 total.

In a dealers, these things are £12 each!

Well spotted. Opie Oils are not normally that competitive. Shame that they are not able to do the oil.
As I have grown older, I've learned that pleasing everybody is impossible, but pissing everyone off is a piece of cake.

For the spark plugs the deal is excellent.
For oil have reservations as to what year was made and what are the exact specs .
Embrace the wind.
