    Lost catalog link

    I had a link to a GS parts seller that had complete catalogs for each model and year. I originally found it on this Forum.

    Thanks to a computer problem, I've lost it.

    I can't remember the name of the company -- and can't find it on this Forum.

    Does anyone have it?

        It's ALPHA SPORTS -- THANKS.

        Dennis Kirk is great for NEW stuff, but ALPHA SPORTS has all the part numbers and diagrams -- GREAT resource -- and they sell too!

          The pricing at Alpha-Sports is kookoo krazy kokonuts, but their diagrams work a bit differently than the others, and this can be useful. They list all parts, whether they're still available or not, and they start with the original part number and show the sequence of supercession, which is handy for cross-referencing and perhaps finding NOS parts.

          I do feel a slight twinge of guilt for never actually buying anything from them. I'm glad some folks do.

          In the end, Alpha-Sports is a dealer that works like any other dealer selling parts online. They do not stock any parts at all; when you place an order, they place the order with Suzuki, then the parts have to be shipped to their shop, then they package and ship the parts to you.

          I usually use one of these two sites to order parts -- these are large dealerships near Indy, so I can save a a lot of time and shipping charges by choosing "will call" and picking up the parts in person:
          https://www.onlinecycleparts.com/ (Westfield Powersports)
          https://www.partshark.com/ (Flat Out Motorsports)

          The former is a little closer, so that's who I usually use. If you poke around, perhaps there's a dealer local to you with a similar online parts business under a different name.
