Emailed about a dozen or so scooter shops overseas over the past week or so and no good leads. I heard back from about 3 or 4 who all stated the part is discontinued and they are unable to help. Ponzi Racing actually does have them in stock and I emailed them twice asking for a quote on shipping but have not heard back. Something tells me it would be an arm and a leg though because I had reached out to them back in May or June for a quote on shipping an exhaust pipe and they quoted me around US$200. www.ponziracing.com/product-information/scooter-and-motorcycle-50cc/cycling/torsen-wd/polini-swingarm-%22torsen-wd%22-yamaha-bw's-mbk-booster-before-2004/ Over the past week or two I’ve also been posting in a couple Facebook groups online and someone actually sent me a message last night saying they have a Torsen arm brand new in box. Seems like there are some to be had still out there. But it’s just finding one that pops up or someone had laying in their garage, as people here have been saying. reminds me of paying 155 for a £55 item. Motorkit sells these custom aerox rear mudguards, they wouldn't post to the UK unless I spent 155 in total checkout amount, so I had to buy a bunch of random stuff. I will note I did get a nice battery charger though which is handy I guess. |

Oh to clarify, I actually ended up buying on from the states off that guy who reached out to me. Should have it soon. And, by coincidence I just joined that group yesterday, good stuff! |

The search wasn't so bad after all then Haha yup. If Ponzi Racing came back with a reasonable price for shipping, I was going to buy extra and put some on ebay and then offer them up here for folks who want them. Oh well. |
