Ordered some side panel ones from Norbo but I need others and I can't find them anywhere. Like the ones for the coolant and oil tank. I bet there are more too. Anyone know where to find them? Please don't say Yambits as the ones they sold me lasted 6 months then fell apart!

Defo only ever buy rubber parts OEM, all those others from Sumo/yambits etc etc tend to fail very quickly. I do worry when i see people save a few quid on these and other things like foot rest covers :/
'Yes, but they are so exy!' I hear you all cry... I counter with the fact that it will always pay you to shop around for stuff like this.
As I tend to buy from abroad ahead of time (means you can opt for cheapest post). Ive found that you can make a good saving that way but I do appreciate most people just need stuff for a build 'right now'.
Whats weird is the 'market pricing' for these bits, like all yam parts. Ie locally they costs many £ or $, but then you find a place that sells em for cents but you have to pay post etc. swings n roundabouts. Its the same with many small parts like nuts bolts and washers as well... grr.... the list goes on... grr...
To be honest, I am always appalled at the cost of things like grommets from most yam parts dealers... If you really want to wince, check out the full cost of fitting out a complete F1/2 fairing with all new grommets, nut plates, washers, OEM screws etc It is very scary.

+1 Always search their parts site first to see if an item is available |
