Hard to find KT250 part
« on: June 26, 2009, 12:54:53 pm »
Hi guys,

Chasing the last "hard to get" part to complete my KT250 resto. I need a LH grip! Part no 46075-026.

Failing anyone having a grip, can anyone recommend a good source o/s for rare vintage Kawasaki parts?

Cheers,
Ben

Hi Tony,

Another good suggestion. Already have a set of Ariete grips from him at home - not close enough to the NOS grip I have on the throttle.

Any other suggestions?

Cheers,
ben

Hi guys,

Update - have a picture of a throttle side grip. This is what I am looking for but in a left hand grip. Maybe something else has a pattern that matches this.



Cheers,
Ben

So no one else has any contacts for hard to get Kawasaki parts? I have tried:
Kawasaki Australia
Fred and Deb (NZ)
Babbitts (USA)
Speed Supplies (USA)
Bike Bandit (USA)
Northwest Vintage Cycle Parts (USA)
Ebay (AUS, US, UK)
CMSNL (Netherlands)
Bike Boneyard (USA)
Corby Kawasaki (UK)
TYTrials (UK)

Does any one have details for Japanese/Thai based Vintage Kawasaki dealers?

Hi Albrid,

As much as I would like another one, I already have 3 complete KT's. 1 is showroom original, 1 is a tricked up rider, and the third is awaiting restore. All I need on the showroom one is this grip. Everything else is accounted for.

I hope someone jumps on it though, the more KT love the better!

Cheers,
Ben
