Might sound too simple but try Ebay !
Especially the German site - things seem to go for less money there than in UK.

They were very quick to offer a refund or replacement parts if I returned the shipment, but thats not really the point.

Try:
http://www.motorworks.co.uk/bmw/home.php
"wide range of new parts and have broken thousands of BMWs giving access to a huge stock of used parts" & "ship parts nationally and worldwide through efficient despatch department"
Or
http://www.james-sherlock.co.uk/
"competitive pricing" & "customers worldwide"
I've been up to Motorworks myself and found them very friendly and helpful.

Take a look at WWW.SIEBENROCK.DE they do new and reconditioned parts. What parts are you looking for ? Maybe someone can help you through the Hubb or take a look at the for sale and wanted section over on WWW.UKGSER.COM (Uk GS forum) They have lots of stuff for sale. Contact "Steptoe" over there and he is ofetn selling parts. He's based in London. I get my brake pads and airfilters through him and he is a GS rider himself.

re - motobins
I have used them a few times.. everything has been correct, also they were prompt in answering emails when i had technical questions ( info was correct also ). To my mind anybody can screw up. it is how they handle the screwups that count.

I've used motobins many times over the years. I've had defective parts twice .. both times they replaced them without question .. and they did not want teh parts back.. So I supose it depends on if you are a 'good' customer then they'll take your word ?
As for geting the wrong parts - well I always look up the part on their web site and use their part number .. it does have adescription .. and sometimes a photo so you can confirm it is what you want. I think the key is not letting them do the looking for you ... I prefer to look myself anyway even when at a brick and motor store I like to see the parts diagram and numbers so I can chack .. "that would be the right side one , I want the left"
