Until 10 years after the model is discontinued and the part is not used on other more current models.

Parts availability for 20 year old Suzuki???
- Thread starter TwistedKestrel
- Start date
I don't think there's such a requirement at all. In the USA, the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act may effectively require manufacturers to have parts as necessary in order to be able to honor any warranties they've offered on their vehicles... that's about it. As far as I can tell Canadian consumer protection laws at best manage to achieve roughly the same thing
I'm not really concerned with what Suzuki's legal obligations are to me in this matter, though

It all comes down to demand/profit.
I know Yamaha still has certain parts from the 70s manufactured because there is a demand.
Of course Yamaha never manufactured those parts in the first place but out-sourced them.
If there is a profitable demand they just place an order to the lowest bidder.

Whether it's bikes, dirtbikes, sleds etc parts start getting harder to find after 10yrs. I'd likely have a shed full of cool 90's stuff if it weren't that way. Some of the high-demand stuff now has new options available (You can pretty much build a 90's fox-body Mustang with new parts and I'm tempted every day).

There has to be some aftermarket rearsets that are still made for the TL, no? Probably same price as oem from a dealer too
