wher are you getting parts for you're 1250
« on: December 01, 2007, 05:55:45 PM »
Wher are the members finding parts for their 1250 especially the ones in Alberta I am onlt 8 hours from Edmonton and 81/2 from Calgary hell it's only 8 hours to Vancouver so it's not to far to go.
My dealership is not to good at finding parts so assistance is appreciated.

Both my local Suzuki and Yamaha dealers are good at ordering in anything aftermarket, and obviously, the Suzuki guy gets me any OEM parts I need.

I have also ordered stuff stateside from Dennis Kirk, this last time I had it shipped to my in-laws as we were in Phoenix anyway. They seem to stock lots, and shipping is prompt.

I've bought stuff in the past from Blackfoot in Calgary. Pretty good selection for a shop. And back in the 80's, Walt Healy in Edmonton was pretty good...(that was quite a while ago). Back in those days I was trying to source Bultaco parts, that were getting scare...

Walt Healy is in Calgary and they have a full parts department.

In the same part of Calgary is GW cycle world and they have a full parts department as well

Both of these places are very good and the prices are better than the other dealer in Calgary.
