I seem to remember people talking about a main bearing that was no longer available ? Is there any other parts that are no longer available as far as bearings, rubbers, electrics etc go ?
Cheers.

Gear bushes.
I had the last two new 350 con rods North Leicester Motorcycles had apparently.

No, but the big ends were so worn that the rod 'eyes' had gone oval. Good used ones are probably OK if checked for roundness.

Wouldn't it be quicker to list parts that are Obtanium. Everything I look for is out of stock.

kickstarts. No stock anywhere and second hand are rare. There was one on ebay recently at EUR170, despite being really shabby
