Default 1987 suzuki QuadRunner revival

This past weekend I pick a 1987 suzuki quadrunner lt230eh from my uncle. Which said the last time it ran was 12 years ago but the only reason it was parked is they torn through the clutch doing wheelies. So a weekend of work it was mine with a about $175 saved up I'm looking at clutch discs and springs, spark plugs, maybe ignition coil, also maybe starter relay. My plan is to get it running then this winter tear it down and do a full rebuild. But my big question is where would the best place would be to buy parts

Ebay for a lot of after market parts. Barnett or Vesrah are good replacements for oem clutch plates and springs,plus Cycle Parts Warehouse has reasonable prices on oem parts. You also have Bike Bandit,Partszilla,etc that you can compare prices. Dirt Cheap Kawasaki & Suzuki OEM Parts & Accessories – Cycle Parts Outlet
