There is one in Lubbock on 98th ST. I have driven by it, but I have never stopped in.

Do a Motorcycle salvage search on google a lot of parts and most do internet orders.

There is a guy that advertises on craigs that is like a salvage yard. He is selling off all the old take off parts that he has been collecting for years from his shop. Decent prices. He is just west of FT Worth.

Don't know if they're still open but try a search for Bates in Garland. Last time I went over there was about 12 yrs ago. It think they listed it as Bates Discount Cycle Parts or something like that.
