Online Suzuki parts - where from?
 
Hello, can anyone point me towards a site, preferably in the UK where I can get the OEM/aftermarket bar end assembly kit, like the one in this post...http://forums.sv650.org/showthread.php?t=204865&page=3

I have come across the website motorsport.com and the part set I require is #4 http://www.motosport.com/GB/motorcyc...ITH-COWLING%29 but they are stating these parts are for USA models.

Has anyone used this site for parts? or is anyone breaking there pointy that would like to sell me one.

thanks in advance, Steve.

I normally start my searches on ebay, you can normally get pretty good deals on there.
Some people don't like ebay but i think it's pretty reliable, especially as there are a lot of shops selling on there. It may be worth a quick look ;)

Just check RRP prices before going on ebay..lots of genuine parts are marked up for more than RRP on there!

:smt023Completely true. If people check either a franchised dealer or distributor you will find that most times their prices for genuine OEM parts are cheaper than genuine OEM parts on ebay.

Being a member of the official "Suzuki Owners Club" I can also benefit from the fact that members get a discount from certain dealers. Suzuki, and I imagine other manufacturers do something similar, have a "Bike of the Month" when specific spares are marked down by as much as 60%. It is always worth checking whether the part you want is used on the "Bike of the Month" and so can avail yourself of that pricing. I have never seen "Bike of the Month" pricing on ebay.

Best 2 examples I have seen (both non suzuki though)..KTM 125 Duke Regulator £25 dearer second hand on ebay than new RRP. Ducati 748 chain guide £12 RRP...on ebay new £48!!!:shock:...and they had sold lots of them:confused:

I'm not saying that ebay is the be-all-and-end-all. It was just a suggestion because in the past I've bought lost of parts on ebay that have been considerably cheaper than on other sites. It's worth shopping around but it does also depend on what you're looking for
