Cool HELP Canada/America Rat!

Hi Guys is there anyone out there that can help me? I am trying to purchase a "Corbin Fast Gun Seat For A Rocket" but to purchase the seat in the UK through a franchise dealer it will cost me another £160 ($280).
Does anyone live near the Corbin dealership in either Florida or Hollister in Canada? Any help would be greatfully received. Cheers!!

Hi There, good to hear from you! have now taken my shame to night school to improve my geography. If you are going to Florida in March would you consider purchasing a fast gun seat on my behalf ( for my Rocket ) and post it to me in the UK??

Corbin is usually set up at Daytona during Bike Week. Have you tried to contact them directly? Will they not ship a seat to the UK?

If you run out of options, I'll try to help.

Hi again unfortunately they will not deal direct due to export costs and prefer me to deal with a uk supplier, but due import/export costs this increaes the cost of the seat to $550 as a pose to $300 making it to expensive. I realise it is a big ask but if you can help it would be greatly appreciated.

Well, there are some bits that we can't quite swing here in the States that you get across the pond, Rup... so I might be up for a turnabout!!!

I'll have to let you know as the date approaches. In the meantime, send me a product number, color, etc.
