Hi guys.
Reasonably new to restoration of the 454 LTD.
Having done a couple of Z1’s previously I’m finding it really difficult to find a supplier who carries a good stock of parts for the 454’s. The Z’s seems to have a decimated bunch of die-hard suppliers who can provide every last washer and I am a bit surprised that so far this seems not to be the case for the 454.
I am hoping this is a reflection of my inability to find the suppliers (rather than their lack of existence) which is the problem?
First requirements; replacement exhaust for the beast.
I’m based in europe (Ireland) so ideally european suppliers but if I have to shop across the pond then so be it! Your advice or recommendations is most welcome.
Thanks a million.
Rgds, Stewart.

The exhaust might be a big ask but you can always improvise with other pipes. As for regular spares find your part below then click on the number and it links to a PDF showing which other bikes use the same part. This is more useful when searching online because the part might be available but not listed as 454. 454 riderOccasionally some parts are still listed wrong in the retail/suppliers UK database, I got a speedo cable that had the correct number and everything but was six inches too short and eventually found one with the retailer willing to measure the length before posting it out.
