Moderator Goff Posted January 8, 2009 Moderator Posted January 8, 2009 Yea its not hard to work out why we are in the shit too much profit being taken Exactly. They wanted over 400 quid just for a header pipe for my dragstar I always buy from our cousins over the pond - ive found a couple on evilbay that are very very helpful and will mark as a gift so you dont get hit with massive charges - thus making it even cheaper!
Alex. Posted January 8, 2009 Posted January 8, 2009 Conversely, when I was looking for an engine case for my FZR600R (generator case, long story!) all I could find on ebay was 3HE cases. These cases were £35 in second hand condition and won't fit the 4JH, I tried. Brand spanking new casing from Yamaha main dealer, £50. guaranteed to fit. Not all parts are expensive from main dealers, they are worth a shot now and again. Alex.
