I've been asked for $74 for a blinker relay at my local suzuki stealer.
Since it is a 2 pin standard relay, 12V 21Wx2 + 3.4W, I went to check other dealers to see how they charged for it:
Suzuki: $74for a Nippon-Denso relay.
Yamaha: $40 for a Yamaha XT600Z relay (generic)
Kawasaki: $26 for a Kawasaki GPZ600 relay (Mitsuba)
Hmmm... :cookoo:
Thats about right... I work at a dealer and my cost was like $24...
Go to Advance auto or your local parts store and buy an automotive one for $4 :thumb:
Prices inflated:
4 wheels, normal car = 2x
4 wheels, 4x4 = 4x
2 wheels, normal = 6x
2 wheels, chrome =10x
no wheels (boat) = no limit- whatcha got in ya pocket big man ?
airplane/jet = shame on you for caring about the price !
Tell them you just want to buy a blinker.Not stock in the company! :icon_mrgreen: :icon_mrgreen:

Wal-Mart: $1.99
I'd hope they at least take you out to dinner and kiss you before they take your $74. I realize that OEM parts are expensive and dealers have higher overhead costs, but that kind of pricing is just criminal.
