P1000 Fox shocks Canada

[ayoung]

Hello,
Wondering if you knew of a source for fox shocks in Canada. My local dealer said they were “around $3000 CAD” (~$2200)!!! I promptly said goodbye.
Thanks,

local honda dealer is really your only choice for fox qs3 tuned for hondas.i just priced them out last tuesday.1200 front and 1400 rear.go with elka if you don't need them right away .

Thanks. eBay.ca has fronts for $1000 Cad shipped, but would get likely get dinged with import fees. What stage elkas are comparable to fox qs3?

Are the fox's extraordinarily better than stock? Or is it something you'd do when you need to replace?

SYoung, if you find them in south Ontario, I can get them for you and meet you halfway from midland to Sudbury off the 400. Save you 4 extra hours.

Thanks very much for the offer Mikey. I have 4500km on my 16 1000-5. Tires are done so am going to 28” black waters and am thinking of upgrading suspension, just for low speed comfort. Will reach out if anything comes up!

i looked at something similar on ebay.ca.that price was usd and after adding tax and exchange it was the same as honda,also most sellers won't ship international.elka stage 3 are close to fox qs3 from what i understand.you should check and see if any towns near the border in the us have a parcel pickup service.here in bc almost every us border town has one .you have your parcel shipped to them and they hold it for you to pick up,24/7,saves money on international shipping because it isn't shipped across the border.you pick up and pay the duty/tax on the way back across.
