The header pipes are readily available on Ebay, depends on what kind of condition you are looking for. The rest of items your looking for are very hard to come by, especially the front fender. There was a rechromed one on Ebay a few months ago, missing the stays and it went for over $400.00. As Ian said in your other post, there are several of us restoring a Cobra right now, including me.

Cheers...Fred

I believe that was one that Paul had.

This is 34955-15000 ? PM had these recently, so it might be worth calling him. Failing that, if you have one then you could copy it yourself in urethane. Most hobby shops sell everything you need. In addition to eBay, those header pipes can be bought from Suzuki in the States still for $114 USD each. As Fred has mentioned - the other parts are like rocking horse poo.

Side cover replicas are available in UK: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/310635697876" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

While walking (i do alot of that ) I thought if it cost sooo much to find a front fender why not fabricate it ? i am sure i could source a rough stamping but the important info would be precise measurements (ANYONE?????????) if you know of some one whom has this fender and could take the time to measure it.

think i will try that side cover and maybe some one can give me a heads up of what is a correct style of header pipe , 68 to 72? the fender i have a friend who builds all my custom fenders for me i am going to try to do a replicate with what i have and what i can make for the correct look but not a pristine resto for now and just plug away finding the correct parts.

The down pipe (header as you call it) is the same for all years. Fenders from other years will fit your bike, it's just that the Cobra fender was unique for that year. Do you have the original?

no I have the flat style from the later years, which i might use as a template for fitment when i find a suitable enough blank

Going back to an earlier comment I offered, compared to the pump, rocking horse poo is actually quite common.

What most people do is modify an old bicycle air pump. To see what they actually look like - take a look here. Just click on any photo for a larger version.
