12 Years.....

Post by Snev »

I've been searching for Brand new but old stock parts (NOS) for my Suzuki ZR50 X1...... It only needs two more bits, one is a left hand seat rail in blue, the other was a left hand front fork ...... yeah, just found a brand spanking new one in Germany....... so happy I could Scream like a Girl !!!!!! Hope I find a seat rail in the next 12 years....... ! :D
Ok, I confess.......

Let me know if you come across a busa fork. Been looking for a while (but not 12 years)

The only ones we’ve found were damaged!

What I search for is NOS... New Old Stock which is stuff that is new and still in the packaging.... even after 40 years I still find the odd bit now and again.... Just searching Hayabusa NOS on Ebay will give lots of new bits. I also use Brooks Barn and Crooks Suzuki spares..... Also, If you want to spend lots, CMSNL have most Hayabusa Fork Items in stock and are all brand new...... Take a look at the site.... last thing I bought off there was a ZR50 Front Brake Assembly, It cost @ £450 but you just can't find these anywhere other than second hand rubbish ! CMSL have outer Tubes for @ 550 Euro's or you can buy complete assemblies for a lot more....

I've used them a couple of times as they are in the Suzuki Retro Bike Parts scheme like Fowlers and Crooks but I find their prices a tad steep and they only carry small stock .... just looked on there for Busa Forks but they only list full assemblies at £2000 and £2300 per side ! None in stock though. :-o
