Motorcycle breakers part search websites
by bigpresh on Apr.03, 2007, under Motorcycles
Two websites I’ve used a couple of times to send parts requests to motorcycle breakers:
Well worth a try if you need to find a certain part and want to see if any breakers have them available, saves ringing round all the breakers yourself.
If you know of any other good ones, feel free to post them in the comments!
(There are similar ones out there for cars, too).

@David Hayne:
May I suggest that you submit a request via one or both of the part search websites I listed above? This isn’t a part search website, it’s my blog :)
Or you could have a look on eBay… if you’re quick, there’s one going for £30 (current bid) for spares/repair:

Hi im looking for a complete 4-1 exhaust for a 1991 GSX600F can you help.

@Alan:
If you want a standard exhaust system the breaker parts search sites linked in this post may be able to help. IIRC the GSX600F doesn’t have a 4-into-1 system as standard though, so I assume you’re looking for an aftermarket job – try http://www.mandp.co.uk or somewhere similar.

@Alan:
Good luck with your search, hope you find something suitable.
Do you need a full system, or could you get away with just the cans? (I’m guessing from the age of the bike, there’s a good chance the downpipes have rotted through – I believe that’s quite common, especially on the areas out of sight behind the fairing).
You could try also searching for “Katana” as I believe that’s what the GSX600F was called in America?

@Alan:
also take a look at http://daves.gsx600f.site.mysite.wanadoo-members.co.uk/
He says:
“I found out that the 600 bandit “slip on” and “link pipe” would fit my bike”.

Hi
Thanks for the mention. I run the Gissit.com website and always appreciate someone that tells others what we are doing. I am going to expand the site very soon to allow you to find bikes, damaged repairables, accessories etc. Soome of this is already there but has just never been promoted.
Cheers

I used to have nothing but trouble looking for parts when i was doing up bikes and cars a few years ago. Its great to see a few places embracing the net and making things easier for people – phoning round used to be a nightmare!

It was either really easy to find parts or really hard. When I had the yamaha virago, parts were pretty easy to find. I find that the older the bike, the harder to find parts. Always good to have a nice parts website handy. I’ll stay tuned
