Dan, the Ebay stores are your friend on this one. You can get some decent stuff from individual sellers, but there is a TON of stuff hiding in the stores section of Ebay. There are non-Ebay suppliers, but vintage parts are inconsistant. I've been buying tons of NOS wear items for my bikes such as points, cables, electronics, brakes, and rubber/plastic stuff from mainly the Ebay stores that specialize in this stuff. I avoid knock offs or repros as well as overseas transactions. So far, so good. I just bought the NOS 1st oversize piston kit for the Dream 150 last night for $25.00! Sleeves for $10.00! It can be a great deal, but if you need something that everyone wants, like a CB160 mudflap, be prepared to spend a lot of money for what used to be a super cheap dealer item.
What kind of bike did you score? If it's a Honda here's a good forum, although nothing like Pelican which is in a league of it's own.
