I'm after some advice on where to shop online for biking bits - other than Motomail. Not that there's an awful long wrong with them, apart form having a pretty lame website.

I'm shopping for a wide range of stuff from bolt ons to consumables.

Any ideas?

Thanks

Try using the Internet Yellow Pages, lots of bike shops etc have a website link there

ebay, wife has brought alot of stuff off it, iknow quasi has brought alot of parts of there, my father in law brought alot of parts of a motorbike dealer based in the usa from the net, for his old vn1500d

Most places now days sell on line, hunt around and see what ya can find, 9/10 what you want you can find on ebay at a goodish price, just beware of shipping costs

try www.cycle-parts.com
Can't vouch for their service yet but i'm getting OEM suzuki parts in the country for about 2/3 of the price I can buy them for here, so thats not bad!

My thoughts exactly - so far - hence the thread.

Might not be quite what you're looking for but have a look at www.motorcyclemarketplace.co.nz

"Lame" web site? It's useless! I don't know why they bother having one. Probably because, like a lot of businesses, they read somewhere that they should have a web site...

When I originally wrote the thread I used the phrase "as useful as a fart in a spacsesuit", but decided against it. Couldn't agree with you more Mr Hitcher sir - shite!
