    What are some parts that you would only use suzuki/OEM?

    I'm not looking at anything specifically just kind of curious. I know for example aftermarket carb parts are pretty shanky. Stock ignition coils seem to last damn near forever. Probably piston rings too? Are there any parts that you would never go for an off brand?

          It's really easier to go with the Suzuki stuff for most everything if they still carry it. Most OEM parts don't cost much if any more than aftermarket, the quality is known.

          Series regulators, wheel bearings, carb o rings are a few exceptions.
