    Yoshimura

    I've seen quite a few nice bits that I might like to buy, eventually, on Yoshimura's Japanese website. I cannot, however, find out where I can purchase any of these things. Any ideas?

      Ah well, one of my friends might be get stationed in Japan, so maybe I'll have him ask around when/if he gets there.

        Besides Yosh stuff, there are a LOT of very nice items available for the 1100 Kats, and the E's too (known as the GSX1100) in Japan. I would do some online research, and give him a list to check out....unfortunately, most of the sites are in Japanese, but Google translator works well enough to get a general idea.

          Yeah, I'm working up to all that. Just window-shopping, and planning for projects on this bike for the next 4-5 years. I'm a long term outlook kinda fellow. I just love some of the styling of the bits they have for these bikes over in Japan. I've seen quite a few bikes of this vintage that have been streamlined to the point where they nearly look organic. That's sorta what I'm going for, aesthetically.

                Some of the items on the Yosh Japan site are not offered on the N. American site. I had emailed them once to ask about pricing and availability of the carb air dam seen on the Japanese site, but they weren't able to answer, even when I provided the part #.

                  I asked them about a part a year ago. they gave me a price and shipping price from japan also, They said it would take a few weeks to get. Maybe they can only get certain stuff.
