If its for OEM lowers (which are the best) then mebbe try: http://www.sparesdirect.co.uk/home.htm i've just mailed 'em for a quote to do my blue K3 so will post how much when i get it. Hopefully a lot less than the £400 Suzuki quote! :smt087

They look ok from the pic and that price is the sort of thing i'd be happier paying.

Wonder why they quote only K4 --> ? Whats the difference between the K3 and K4, thought they were the same as reagrds fairing fixings?

I think the K3 Rad may be slightly different. Don't quote me on that, but I think it effects the mounting points

I know you're in the UK, but give Oneida a try. I've had great luck with them.

Dunno, after looking around i'm confused about models for the various years. If i look in the Suzuki spares list, the part No for the Copper and Silver K3's is the same No: 990D0-17G20-. This part is marked for K3 only.

But the part No for my Blue K3 is a different part and is the same as the K3/K4/K5 lowers: 990D0-17G20-YC2. Why is the blue one different? Did they make the blue ones later or summat and they have a different layout?

Also why is the part No for mine £30 more expensive than the other K3 colours :confused:

The last three letters/digits denotes the colour - YC2 is Grand Candy Blue, I think. YD8 is definitely Sonic Silver (who thinks up these names?) etc etc.

So going by what the parts list says, the lowers are the same mouldings (990D0-17G20) for all years from the K3 onwards, just painted different colours to suit the bike.

That makes sense, so they are nearly all interchangable. Cool

Why the price hike for the blue ones though. The rumours that the blue K3's are hand rolled on virgins thighs must be true.
