Yes but fowlers aren't like Robinson's in a lot of ways. Thinks of fowlers more like the OEM parts provider for all bikes, where as Robinson's are just a very big bike shop that a do deals and sales on a lot of oem AND pattern parts.

You are more likely to get a deal on ebay/amazon than with Fowlers. Also dont forget, just like Suzuki, a lot of Yamaha parts are interchangeable so can be found cheaper. Eg I need a set of front calipers for my FZ1 at some point, and the same exact calipers that fit the XJR1300 will fit the FZ1 but are noticeably cheaper.

@MikeFZS, whats parts are you trying to find?

+1 Fowlers
if you happen to be a member of any recognised club you might get discount - I know they do for TRF so maybe MAG, ACU etc?
