I'm presumably gonna need various parts from time to time and I wondered if you all used one supplier in particular?
Thanks. |

what they said. especially Viney's advice about checking new price 1st. There was a seat cowl that sold for almost twice what it would cost new from Suzuki, lol.

Was Spares Direct- they've closed and now all stock is with Robinsons, who are effectively Spares Direct now.
Helpful and quick they are too. Sometimes I just pop by Steve Jordan and order bits- mainly in Summer as it's a nice ride over there... |

Robinson's Foundry if you need suzuki parts I check Alpha Sports first then order the SKU through Robinson's.
![]() http://alpha-sports.com/suzuki_parts.htm http://www.robinsonsfoundry.co.uk/ or alternatively http://www.suzuki-spares.co.uk/ Find them to be sometimes expensive! |

Don't forget marksman industrial/bikebearings for bearings. Wemoto take the p*ss for those.

wemoto, but I've recently noticed they're expensive on quite a few parts. Not sure if this is due to the website move or me only just noticing though.

Nope some of their small items take the p***. But they're good on some stuff. Shop around.
Most importantly find and support your local businesses. Bearing factors, motor shops, nut and bolt shops etc etc. These places are ace when you find a good one!
