Quickest way to get BMW spares to Lima?
 

I need to get some shims for my bike to here in Lima. What is the fastest way to get them here? Is FedEx a good idea and would it be better to source them from Europe, the US or maybe Colombia?

Thanks!

Hi
I had to get a front damper for my bike whilst in Santiago. took 5 weeks from Germany.
If it is a regular part you may be able to get it from the BMW dealer in Santiago - google them or if that fails I will see if I have their contact details (they don't speak a lot of English).

Are you in Lima now? fancy a beer? I am down in Miraflores.

Hi Kevin

Thanks for the ideas - turns out the BMW Dealer was having a private joke and his original diagnosis was made without even opening the engine! Now he sheepishly tells me it's within spec doh

Unfortunately I've missed that beer - moved on up to Trujillo - catch you another time!

Cheers

Glad you are sorted. I am in Chimbote and heading to Cajamarca tomorrow for a few days.
Keep in touch, sounds like we are heading the same way, may get that beer after all.

Cheers
