Hey everybody!
My wife just bought an 82 CB900F and I wanted to start collecting parts for a complete tear down this winter. Things like forks seals, gaskets, carb kits, brake parts, brake and oil lines.....etc.
Can anyone recommend a good place or places to get parts?
Thanks! |

Griz covered it very well.
My personal favourite is Z1Enterprises because of the tech advice they provide as well as the parts. |

INDEED!
Jeff and the crew at Z1E are the best. Unsurpassed customer service, and the fastest shipping on the planet.
EVERY business regardless of specialty, should be operated like Z1 Enterprises. Period. |

If you're into the Evilbay thing, look up "GeorgeFix". I've gotten plenty of things from him and it has always been good. Quick shipping, and good prices. He's got rebuild kits for the brakes, carbs, master cylinders, and a bunch of other parts. |

I really like www.servicehonda.com for OEM parts. The only thing I'll get from Bike Bandit now are 1/2 sizes on the 25mm shims (look in the Triumph speed triple section). I've read enough complaints (for me) regarding Old Bike Barn sending stuff out in a timely manner, so I pretty much avoid them. |
