Beat me to it....


Seriously though, there is no single answer. Some shops are better than others, but make sure it's a proper shop with a physical presence (check adverts in Scootering) rather than a fly by night ebay chancer as there is no come back with those.
I use Twisted Rods and Beedspeed out of preference.

hi and welcome buzzsolomoto = fleebay or halifax. twisted rods fleebay or up north somewhere. beedspeed = grimsby fleebay and they have a web site ive found all good for anything if your buying bling i wouldn't recommend buzz for bling unless you go to there shop and look at it first ive had pritty poor quality bling item from them recently but other items have been good quality.i will say look at the prices of new in the shops first as quite often its cheeper new. bidders on fleebay get carried away and pay too mutch some sellers charge well over the odds

Allstyles in portsmouth is wer I shop top place top guys unless u speak to ray on a Saturday and hes a bit grumpy hehe

as above , rays ok just hates saturdays in the shop n not on scoot, for period proper bling nobody beats disco dez askill , nice guy allround , for more modern px bling ,as nic says go welsh ,twisted rods,welsh scooter parts, or even scooter republic (welsh comedy mod squad,as sum call em),
otherwise shop around e bay n scooterin ads ,but as rab says its often not as good as piccys in adverts ,
for non-bling bits a relationship with ya local scoot shop is worth buildin jus for advice n help, otherwise as above the tinterweb , an with careful shoppin india/germany ,H

Twisted Rods are in South Wales, not the North

If you're after chrome body parts, the best and cheapest plan is to buy new replacement parts and take them to a platers yourself. Oh, and if anyone starts bragging they're "triple dipped" or "triple plated"..... they ALL are! It just sounds good.

Thanks for the replys plenty for me to be getting on with there ....

Also SIP Germany, postage is pretty cheap now and they have a good rep for quality products. In the uk as said Beedspeed (though they do sell some rubbish), Welsh scooter parts, Twisted Rods, Allstyles all good but really depends what you need.

I've ordered a couple of times from www.scooter-center.com/ in Germany. Sometimes you could get OEM parts quite reasonable price. Gaskets for example. Or something which you didn't even know you needed at first place. 

Don't get fooled when they say "OEM Quality", it's totally different than OEM part. There has to be mentioned brand "Piaggio", then it's original part.

But don't bother contact them, nor give feedback. They surely don't bother to give you an answer. Maybe they are just busy, but I think it is a bit annoying.
