datzenmike Posted May 13, 2016 Report Share Posted May 13, 2016 If you can find out if the parts are Made in Japan, this helps. Alternators are $250 and up at the dealer so that $60 replacement is actually.... junk. I find that wrecking yard parts are usually better even though used. Brake, clutch and slave cylinders are often cheap knock-offs too. Often your originals are totally rebuildable IF you can source good quality build kits. I did this with my 15/16 zx master.

thisismatt Posted May 15, 2016 Report Share Posted May 15, 2016 Agree with Mike. Front inner bearings are impossible to find. Check with member mklotz about a work around. Likely you'll need new kingpins too, and the kits can often be found on eBay. Alternator - you're best off swapping to a newer internally regulated and bypass the stock external regulator. 1 Quote Link to comment
