Been on the look out for a bike project and suddenly a couple have appeared close to home. Both big multi cylinder japs, both been in a shed for to long. I can deal with all the workings etc. But as these bikes are getting on a bit, how do I stand for things like gaskets and general spares, ignition stuff etc. Any top people/supplier to make a note of? as always help always appreciated.

CMSNL stock a LOT of parts for all major Jap makes buddy, with diagrams of exactly what goes where. Used them for a few things, not the cheapest, or the fastest, but still good.

Never had a drama finding anything for my bikes on eBay though...............

have my eye on 2 at present. Honda blackhawk and a Suzuki kettle, neither on public sale yet, just waiting for someone to make up her mind, recently widowed so some leeway is being shown.
