Look on Eflame for parts!!!! Or maybe check out some of the google adds for parts!!! Did I just say that? I asked a non sponsor today about the vet AND HE SAID look there. He buy's from them all the time and does pretty good. You got to swing by the shop some time with the orange low rider. Take care my young brother. Vince
