Default Bike guys in here please

Where's the best place (s) to find parts for say..... A Suzuki boulevard M50? I'm looking for an alternator? Bike won't run unless it's hooked up to a battery jump pack. I bought a new battery, have not put it in yet, but if the battery is not the problem......

Any advice welcome!

Try motorcycle super store online. Not sure if they carry those, but they are cheap on dirt bike parts.

I get a lot of parts on Ebay. Model specific forums is also a good place to search for random parts. Craigslist if you don't mind running local to look at stuff.

If you want stock stuff for the Zuk, check out http://www.oneidasuzuki.com/store/home.php

They might have a replacement part. Otherwise Ron Ayers or BikeBandit. You'll probably get better prices from Ayers. Bear in mind, stock replacement will always be priced a little rich

If nothing else, hit up the biggest forum for your make. There are always good tips there.

Good luck.

Good news! Bike is running again with a $55 battery and not a $300 stator!

For parts, I like to shop bikebandit.com. They've always taken good care of me.
