Default Touring Take Offs for Cost Of Shipping

All,

I may be speaking out of turn, but there may some folks out there that don't have spare change laying around to buy new parts. I don't want to get into this, that & the other over it....

I have some spare parts, take-off parts, etc. that I would be willing to donate to anyone who needs it. New parts are expensive and if a person wants to put on a used part andI can help them out that's a cool thing.,

I know some of you are just "holding on" to stuff you will never use again. Face it, we are all pack rats to some degree and don't want to go through the hassle of selling it on ebay, etc...

What do you all think of maybe asking the administrator to set up a thread to see if this idea has any merit?

UW

uweldit, I agree with you. I have a couple of parts lying around that I would donate for someone to use. Now if they turn around and sell them on flebay that is another story.I remember the days when I was young and I couldn't rub 2 nickels together. I would have been greatful if someone would have helped me out. Just my .02 Dan

This is an excellentidea! I don't have much coin myself but, if I can help someone out with a stock or any part I have, that would not just sell it, that would be great! One mans junk is another man treasure they say. Maybe even a trading post so to speak. Like a real swap meet
Have a broken mirror, I have some
Need a radio glove box, I have one
Stock aircleaner have a ding, I have one
I also have a wrinkle black (? fuse box cover?) dunno what it's called and a wrinkle black battery top off a 05 super glide

I would rather trade for items but I am willing to help a guy out!
I am looking for a set of axle spikes or the crash bar delete bars for my bags....

Last time I went to a swap meet people had tonsstock take off parts that most people don't want, and wanted a fortune for it??? Pegs and switch housings werecrazy!

I would like to add to my list above, I also have 2 new amber sets of factory lenses for bullit turnsignals.
Anyways, I will start us off. Anyone have apair of reflectors that come out of your bag latches? They can be cracked just not broken in two. I have a little project going and need a pair for a template and I can't find any around . Mine unfortunately where trashed in a garage clean up thinking "I would never need these", lol! I would happily pay shipping on apair threw Paypal?
