Most police stations have a yard full, but you have to know someone to get at them . Other than that I think most are "refurbished" and back on the road again . :-"

I have never heard of a motorbike being scrapped around here.

Does it actually happen?

Most of that you will find in Bangkok.

Here they sit them someplace that's just about it. There is one Mechanic in a hole in the wall that has tones of bikes just sitting that he can't get parts for.

I have one near me but very very limited choice,most are burn outs or bad accidents.
Looking for parts for a JRD!!!!!!. Yes i know.....Please,please,please spare me the comments.

JRD is fairly new might be tough finding that. I believe there is a dealer in Khon Kean, what part are you looking for?

Thanks Bumper,have found dealer for parts in BKK,must say very impressed with their service,delivery 1day.
Just looking for a used magneto at the moment as i think this part will be quite expensive and don't want to go too mad as i am only making something up for around the moo baan.
Cheers

Maybe one from a different kind of bike would do. Easier to find something for a 110 or 125. What I would do is first what you just did. Then I would take the part I wanted to replace to smaller shops that just do mechanical work and try to get a used one that way.

Red Baron in Bangkok carry lots of used parts for replacement I don't know about the smaller bikes though.

Good Luck

Bumper: Just sent picture of magneto to BKK and asked for a price. I was shocked,only wanted 1500 baht so not worth messing about with a used one.
Thanks again for the info.

Sometimes it goes that way, Not that much more to just get a new one. Hey did your best get the beast running and enjoy it, By the way a friend in Khan Kean has one, happy with it. I have a 110 I use around town, as well as the best 800 Kawasaki.
