    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Reverse Part Number Lookup

I was wondering if someone could tell me how the reverse lookup procedure goes. I was thinking that people on here had mentioned being able to look up a part number to see what other models it was used on, but no combination of search terms has lead me to a post about how to do it.

For instance, I am looking for turn signal lens 35612-49230 and I am able to find it by searching for my specific bike, and I am able to look it up by that number and get a price, but I am trying to expand my search to include other models for a used replacement.

I have checked all the usual suspect parts sites, but either none of them offer this (not surprising, since that could only cost them money) or I am not able to find them on their site.

Has anyone been able to find something like this? Am I just blind/missing the obvious? Did I make this functionality up?

Thanks for any help,
Chris

What I do is to, open 2 windows with Alpha spors home page on them. theres a serach box at the top centerish portion of their home paqe.

Next i search for a part to a known bike..like the one i am working on. take the part number from the fiche and paste it to the search box on the second home page and hit search. A list will appear with all the bike that took that part number.
 
Awesome. Thanks, guys!

I hoped I wasn't making it up. If I forget again and can't find this post, I don't deserve to buy parts.
 
More of a cross reference than a reverse lookup.
