After Market Parts
Does anyone know where you can get some aftermarket Brake and clutch levers that will fit?
Was Looking for some grips too i like the driven d3's but not sure about there legnth etc.
Also my rear calliper appears to be completely bust, one of the pistons is seized and really rusted into the calliper which has rusted around it as well. I was wondering if anyone had a spare or knew where i could get one?
Thanks for any help

Re: After Market Parts
yeah im a regular browser but cant have never seen anything other than bits from thailand and hong kong, surely there must be a uk supplier for levers, footpegs etc.
As for the caliper there are some on ebay but seem to be way overpriced...

Re: After Market Parts
Just from my personal experience the quality of parts from Overseas has been massively inferior in terms of correct fitment and quality of materials used. I bought some grips from hong kong before that were supposed to be like the driven d3's and they were awful quality.masterofinsanity wrote:what's wrong with buying them from hong kong?damienbish wrote:yeah im a regular browser but cant have never seen anything other than bits from thailand and hong kong, surely there must be a uk supplier for levers, footpegs etc.

Re: After Market Parts
There not from hong kong though? The hong kong ones are £25-£30 quid. They do look exactly the same? Maybe the guys selling them in the UK are buying them from abroad and selling them on and people in the UK are willing to pay more because they think there not cheap ones from abroad.

Re: After Market Parts
Sorry i didnt look at the address on them the 1s i bought where 100% from hong kong and i had to pay vat at the door for them
yeah id say the 1s from uk sellers are the exact same. i also know of 2 other people who bought from hong kong and had no problems
