Nightmare finding spares

icarus · 31-May-2005, 17:45

I'm having a nightmare trying to get spares for my 600ss.
Everywhere I ring north of the midlands hasn't got anything in stock and I have to order it.

I couldn't get fork seals and had to get them from down south and now I can't get throttle cables and my bikes going to be sat off the road during this nice weather until the parts come into stock and I can get some.

The best I can hope for is getting them for Saturday morning.
I'm off all week and my bikes sat useless.

Tony makes a lot of his own bits including all those odd sized fairing screws in stainless.

ebay has worked wonders for me - there are a couple of traders on there who have a lot of old stock, eg:

Have used these many times and Lee is always quick to ship stuff.

I've got both opener and closing cables in stock.

Thanks for the help guys.

The shops in the North West can order stuff and get it to me within a couple of days but its no good if like today you wanted to go for a ride out and the throttle cable snapped and there was no where within 100 miles that had them in stock.

I was hoping to nip out in the car and get the bike fixed for today and tomorrow but no joy. I've got a throttle cable coming friday and until then I'm going to use the old openning one and just not bother with a closing one.
