I Need Help Guys

Steven J · I Need Help Guys

Recently, I've come into possesion of an S3 400 that has all but fallen to peices. There are a number of parts on it that have rusted out or broken (or both, causing me to punch myself in the face trying to get it off :evil: ), such as the fuel cock, a few of the engine studs have been snapped off, the seals and what not, so I need a little help. A few names, a few websites (please remember I'm in America). I really appreciate it guys.

The names Acetone and Transmission fluid make a good soaking medium for really stubborn bits.... bit of heat helps too.

Sorry to hear your experience so far is so traumatic, hope it gets better.

Hey There,

I'm new to triples also and here is what I have found:

Ebay is great. check every day and you will find stuff

http://www.kawtriple.com/mraxl/ -this is a good place to start and you will continue to use it. look in the parts manuel and you can get the part numbers. then google them and you will see where to get stuff.

http://www.nwvintagecycleparts.com/ -mostly yamaha but have some kawi

http://www.vintagekawasaki.com/ -this guy is in canada but has a ton, is nice to deal with, and can send stuff to america. he bills with paypal and i have had great luck with him

Hope this helps.

Where in the USA are you? I'm in Massachusetts

Marc, I'm in the great state of Texas.

What kind of triple do you drive?

By the way, guys, I appreciate all the pointers I'm getting, it really is helping.

Marc
