Yamaha spares prices

Browsing Yamaha spares recently & REALLY shocked at the standard
prices from the dealers :o :o. Are there cheaper ways to get
genuine bits? I don't need anything atm fortunately but for the
future, if I decide to keep my 01. There used to be a couple of
sources (like Baci) on the old site for parts. Are Yam bits more
expensive than other makes?

Unfortunately Yamaha is not more expensive than any other
Japanese brand. HD is not known for bargains, and I don't think
BMW is any cheaper ... :'(
So no matter what, if you need spares, you've got to pay, unless
you find used ones.... It's the same thing with cars.

I'll take your word for it, but they seem more expensive than
equivalent parts for my other bikes (inc Honda) & my car (Land
Rover...)

I often heard that Suzuki was the worst, cheaper to buy, more
expensive to maintain. But I never saw any evidence of that.
Anyway, it's a rip-off. Just think about how much an MT-01 (or
any other bike) would cost if you had to build it from spare
parts only ...
