They are all over E-Bay. I´m sure they will ship to Canada. I have a Sabre and an Interceptor (same engine) They both have some chatter in the top end, but have for 10+ years. The dealer says just ride them. Not sure if the oil mod kit will really do what they claim. I´m sure won´t hurt. Be careful which one you get. some bolt on and others require drilling holes in the heads (oh no)
The real killer to these bikes is idleing and poor quality oil. At idle almost no oil gets to the top end. I also put a switch on the cooling fan so I can turn it on as soon as I see heavy traffic ahead. The fan doesn´t come on automatically until it gets preety hot. In traffic I don,t let it idle much. I try to rev it up a little to pump some oil to the top end. It has worked for 10+ years and looking for many more.
