Title: Suzuki breakers in Europe
Post by: Jens on August 21, 2009, 07:32:07 am

Hi folks!

Some of you might wonder why I ask a question like this here, but we are to ,my knowledge, quite many european users on this forum. What I´m looking for is a well sorted off-road breaker somewhere in Europe. What I´m looking for is new innertubes to a 43mm 1983 250/465? front forks. Mine are really dented and beyond repair, rest of the package is ok. By the way, if someone got a pair laying around the ol´ barn don't be shy...

One of the best Vintage MX breakers in the UK are Ellastone Off Road . They have tons of stuff .If you follow this link to one of their ebay items you can email or phone them. Good Luck! http://

I've used both Ellastone and Wakefield Offroad 01924217124
As long as you know exactly what you want they're both very good. However they are not always as knowledgable as they think they are, but that probably goes for most breakers. Wakefield were easier to deal with. and seemed to have more Suzy stuff. They had a parcel go missing and were very upfront about the situation [Parcel Farce]

Martin Crooks is brilliant, but they are new parts dealers, not breakers: got a lot of stock, honest reliable and extremely knowledgable.

Thanks for the help.

Will propably try to run the old tubes till I get a few bucks to spare. Seems that Alpha-sport produce new ones for 375usd. I have to send them one of the originals for them to copy and with the freight costs to the US, back toll and all it will ad up...
