    Sites who sell parts

    I posted this in the general page before i found this one. i think this is the right area to ask. I had three sites saved for parts for my rebuild who had these parts in stock. my computer crashed and i lost all of my saved sites. I am looking again for sites that sell case savers and fork braces for my 79 gs550e. i would really appreciate if anyone has a vintage parts site for me to use. I started a thread on my rebuild in the project page.. Thanks Phil

    Try Ebay for the case savers. No idea about the the fork braces but if you find out I'd be interested too

      Regarding fork braces, tkat makes great stuff and could easily make up any brace you want. You may need to take some measurements for a good fit. Email him: tkat@tkat.com and he will let you known what he can do. He is a great guy to deal with. I've bought a brace for my Yamaha xs1100 and for my suzuki s40 off him. The product is aluminum and cnc machined. It shined up easily with some mothers polish and fits like a glove. Price will probably be around $115.

        www.fastfromthepast.com for your fork brace. Ditto eBay or maybe Parts'n'More or Bike Bandit for the case savers.
        Edit: They have your brace and rear sets should you want them for more comfortable riding.

          Bikebandit and eBay is where I've gotten most of my 550T parts. I use google a lot when doing parts searches.

          Bikebandit is reasonable and they ship pretty fast. Plus you can earn Bandit Bucks on purchases. Free shipping on orders over $100 too.

          Suzukipartshouse.com I go to if Bikebandit does not have something.

            Actually AKC, Bike Bandit is one of the companies that charge the most for their parts. You'll get better pricing and service from Parts Outlaw in Florida or Z1 Enterprises in New York

              I've used Bike Bandit in the past. I just switched to Parts Outlaw based on advice from this forum. Assuming that my first order with them arrives timely and correct, I'll have made out like a bandit on the prices.
