Sprockets

Fork Seals - Pyramid Products I have been using these folks for years, great products that last, cheaper than OEM and they also sell them by size for hard to find items. If you know the ID, OD and thickness of any seal they probably have it. Only downside is shipping generally takes about 8-10 days because most inventory comes out of New Zealand. Still worth it though the majority of their seals are $12.50 a pair.

Here are few suppliers I use on a regular basis. All have great stuff or do awesome work.

Motoplat & Femsa Ignition Rebuilds – Vance Smith, can’t say enough good things about the work Vance does. Over the years he has done many ignitions for me and I have not had one fail yet (352) 209-4106. One word of warning, Vance is generally out of the shop from early October until February (he likes fishing) so plan accordingly
http://motoplatrepair.tripod.com/index.html

Vintage Connections - Brass bullet connector kits. Del has been around a while and you just won’t find better electrical connector kits for your restorations.

Bing International – Bing Carb Parts. I have a love / hate relationship with this supplier, if you need Bing parts give them a call and talk with Charlie, they have it all. But they are pricey (620) 767-7844
http://www.bingcarburetor.com/

MMS Supply – Stainless Steel Hardware. One of my favorite suppliers, If you want your project to shine, stainless hardware adds a lot of “bling” and John and Nancy have the best stuff at the lowest prices anywhere. Doesn’t matter if you need one screw or a 1000. These folks are great to deal with!

Powder Coating – Travis Heath in Danielson CT is the best! Great work and great prices, best thing is he knows bikes so when you get you frame back you will only have paint where it belongs. Super nice guy too with fast turnaround for your project. (860) 617-7119

One more and this is not intended to be an ad, if you need welding (repairs or modifications) on your vintage frame, including chrome-moly frames give me a shout pretty much any weekend and I can generally take care of it while you wait.

Thanks,

Kevin

I just used these guys for vapor blasting aluminum parts. Deep finned head and cylinder, triple tree, fork tubes, carb and swingarm link for $125. http://www.noreasterblastworx.com/

I also need to plug Bill at C-Cycle 860-267-1710 - did excellent work rebuilding vintage suspension components, can get custom wound springs in your color for a very reasonable price.

[PRZJOHN]

If you can't find it anywhere and it's Japanese, especially Honda, this place is your best bet. It ain't cheap but they may have that odd ball part you need. They also have great parts fiches with correct part numbers. They are located in The Netherlands and are one of the most professional sites out there.

Great stuff guys! We need to save this information somewhere on the site please.

Mike,

Thanks for bumping this up to the top again. It would be nice if the Admin could make it a sticky post that stays on top.

One more supplier to add to the list. http://www.strictlyhodaka.com/ While the site may be called Strictly Hodaka, they have everything Preston Petty! Paul is a great guy to deal with too.

Thanks,

Kevin

I had a similar experience with Ken.

Does anyone have a good spray can color match for Ohlins 'yellow' springs?

[Gord]

Came across this place while looking for parts for my POS Husky. Looks like they have quite a selection. http://amsracing.com/

Replacement Seat Covers:
- RYDER68 has been the best I've seen so-far, for stitched seats like Yamaha DT's.
(edit) I spoke to Trent, the seller and told him about NETRA. He said he would give a bulk discount if any group of guys from on here wanted to purchase seat covers.
http://www.ebay.com/usr/ryder68?_trksid=p2053788.m1543.l2754

-jrocksqueen2006 is top notch for 80's with screened letters etc...

Yes it is his full time business. He has done several frames for me, all perfect!

Just adding another name to the list of suppliers. If you need vintage Husky or Penton stuff Jake Fischer is another great source. I too often forgot about him because he does not have a website or anything like that but he has quite an inventory of 70’s era parts and a wealth of information. His number is 412-999-1143.
