Title: OEM Parts source
Post by: Mike 86 in San Dimas on April 23, 2012, 09:50:36 PM
When I needed OEM parts I was using Zanotti, but now that they are history I was wondering if there was favorite source out there. They local dealer is so expensive I hate going there. They don't stock much anyway, so might as well order on line. Have many used Woody's? I see they are phone orders and that's fine.
Thanks,
Mike

Morning Mike.

    Try Yamaha Sports Plaza.com. They offer a 30% discount on all parts and accept orders by phone or online. An added bonus is the lack of sales tax in OR. Like most Yamaha dealers, they stock nothing for the FJ, but are quick to order and to inform you of the order status.

James, FYI, Boats.net has a sister company, Power Sports Plus. Prices are better there.

http://www.powersportsplus.com/parts/search/Yamaha/Motorcycle/parts.html (http://www.powersportsplus.com/parts/search/Yamaha/Motorcycle/parts.html)

I did a quick check on a price for a vacuum petcock for the '84/85 FJ1100's and here's what I found:

Power Sports Plus = $101

Yamaha Sports Plaza = $109

Boats.net = $119

I have a discount code for Power Sports, enter "meetsister" and you get an additional 5% off...
(the above price does not include the discount)  

Cheers!  Pat

Good call, Pat.  I just reviewed swingarm bearings and they're definitely cheaper at Power Sports Plus.

Not possible.  You have to be WORKING in order to do PAYROLL deduction.  Randy doesn't take Social Security checks.  :-)
