    I found this guy in Calgary, Alberta, CANADA who I quote:

    " MyOldYamaha.com sells hard-to-find, rare, and discontinued OEM Yamaha parts and accessories for motorcycles, cruisers, snowmobiles, dirt bikes, street bikes and ATVs. We specialize in, and cater to, those customers that are rebuilding or restoring old Yamaha models for pleasure, resale, or simply repair. "

    I just bought a NOS petcock from him for $68.00!! For my 83 XJ750. I didn't need a new one just couldn't pass it up! Also he uses the original Yamaha part numbers to identify the parts.
    I found that even if it says out of stock on the item, ask anyway. The petcock I ordered is listed as out of stock but he had one there.

    Used from Ebay or NOS I'll go with NOS any day. I paid $68 dollars for a NOS petcock for my bike from them. NOS on Ebay $110 and up PLUS shipping, $40!!!!. From what I've seen the shipping is cheaper then from most US sellers on Ebay. Many are charging double the actual shipping to ship to Canada. Len charges extremely good rates for shipping to here. On Ebay you can figure $30 shipping on most small items. I recently bought a front fender for my 73 GT750K Suzuki. I hand to pay $58 dollars snipping. When I got it the actual shipping cost was $38! I can get parts sent from England and Scandinavia for less then a majority of Ebay sellers want.
