Find that part

A decade as a motorcycle courier was all it took for Sydneysider Mike King, frustrated with the regular task of hunting for parts to keep his bikes on the road, to turn an idea into reality with the launch last month of www.findapart.com.au, an internet p

Acccording to King, gone are the days of thumbing through the yellow pages or trawling the internet searching out wreckers, findapart.com.au does it all for you with a rapidly growing database of dealers, wreckers and suppliers only too willing to meet the demand.

The service works by matching the parts that you need with wreckers and dealers who are listed in the database as suppliers of those parts. A simple form based front end coupled with sophisticated database driven programming is the technology that drives the site, says King, sending out your parts request via email to multiple wreckers/dealers across Australia who respond directly to your parts enquiry with prices, quotes and availability. Its quick, its fast and most importantly its free.

You can give the site the once over at http://www.findapart.com.au or call Mike on +612 9544 7820 for more information.

Bikepoint gave the site a try recently, looking for a 1980 GS1000G head in good condition. We received 11 responses from wreckers within a few days, several of whom who could help. We're waiting on the bits, but our initial impressions are very positive.
