Motorcycle Restoration: OE parts!
Hi all,
Thought I'd share some info regarding a superb website I have used recently for getting hold of genuine parts, that cannot be found on fleabay, for my '81 TS185ER that I'm restoring. It seems over here the dealers don't wanna know unless it's a current model or a few years old only. Anyway, the site I used is excellent. It caters for all makes and models, new and old. The bits I ordered took a week to get here from the US, better than post sent from over here!!! The guys' name is Scott, You won't find a more helpful chap!! Here's the website: www.mrcycles.com |

Ooh, thanks for that. I've got a tatty 1979 Suzuki TS250C that I'm about to start work on to get ready for some light trailie fun-times.
That site will come in handy, cheers. |
