Is that the bigger foreign version of the RXS 100 2 stroke?, these guys may be able to help/advise and I have heard some pretty good things about them recently. The UK’s biggest choice of motorcycle parts for Japanese and European machines.

Ben, you'll be better off putting out a request for help in the general forum sections, and some bored westerner will offer to have parts sent to their house and DHL'd or someone might be even flying to where you are and can bring them, or might know a local expert.....

That's not a very nice thing to say about those on Horizons who help others on the road Fern. Particularly since you benefited from a considerable amount of help....
Why don't you step up to the mark and lend a hand? Really.

I'm sorry if that phrase came across in that way. When I was bored at home I took joy in helping people out when I was stuck at home.

I wish I was sponsored by a dad.

Ben, I would offer to post parts from NZ but the price of postage would be silly. So as mentioned wemoto? I wouldn't have anything posted Royal Mail or Parcelforce that goes via Moscow, due to the massive parcel backlog there... Jose's GS1200 tyres are still there from last summer I think..

I think the RX135 was only sold in SE Asia you'd be better trying to get parts from there I think.
What do you need?

Membership - help keep us going!

Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.

You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
