Hey all got a Kawasaki 300 that's seen better days I'm looking to get running.  But first, I'm working on a Honda 350 ES and mainly needing where are you all finding quality parts at good prices.  Atvs are really hot items around here right now and most of the folks wanting and needing them are not familiar with working on them.  I'm looking to find a good resource for information and if it works out well pass this group along to the folks I help to get them in the know how to get the most out of their machines.  Thanks in advance.

Foe OEM parts I use mainly motorsport.com or RockymountainMCATV.com they sell Aftermarket parts also fairly reasonable. I also use Amazon for aftermarket and Ebay for used OEM if unavailable. Things can be kind of iffy on Ebay you have to look closely if you are buying used for damage or not right fitment, plus you have to look for a good price, some sellers sell them high. Plus some of the OEM parts are so outrageously priced you have to go used. There are many online suppliers and I only use these because they have good customer service, and very helpful people.

I just quit ebay myself, their guarantee to fit. Doesn't matter at all bought new parts and old past 2 months recently have had to send back because of wrong parts.  Guess ebays people don't CHK things out of if sellers are actually on the know.many sellers refuse to refund and will fight you on if a part is actually the part you need.  Just to much  of a hassle, please buy from places like rocky mountain,oem if you can and rocky mountain does have used parts that they CHK with their mechanics and guaranteed also.  Good luck

Yes that why I say you have to be careful with eBay it has helped me with expensive Oem parts lately  , you really don’t want to put a 600 carb on a 700 quad, you really have to pick and choose what is the most economical and still come up with the same good end result. But no not really a fan of eBay either.
