Thumbs up to Yoshimura RD

My Yoshi TRS has a couple of springs holding the can to the link pipe. The springs have a grey rubber cover and have started to corrode. People only seem to sell the whole assembly and I couldn't find the springs as a separate item for love or money.

I contacted Yoshimura RD in the USA to enquire how I could get some and they posted me out a set for free.

That is service. Nice to see companies look after the small stuff, as this guarantees my repeat business.

Good support service - wonder if our local distributor would have done the same? A few springs is a small cost to pay for reputation and quality backup service.

Yeah I lost a spring off my R77............ I contacted them & they are sending a couple out to me no charge!

Pretty friggin good!

Doesnt your nut and bolt shop sell s\t springs .I got some $1 . Like the service though .For some reason i see one spring in a jumbo .

Maybe I can call them and say I lost the whole set up

The springs on the yoshi are garbage. I'd go with Gus's suggestion and go stainless steel if I coulld find someone local that does them.

I also need a new spring puller as mine snapped when fitting the arrow headers. Had to do the last two springs with a bit of wire

I am good with free, but stainless would be better if I can find something. Still pleased with Yoshi though - though it's a small thing, it's the thought that counts!

I Just found out today that bikegearwarehouse is no longer the Australian distributor, I only found this out as I had to call them to get a price on a replacement heatshield for my link pipe
I wonder if they will still accept warranty claims I thnk they should
