Which TRX bits are from the Yamaha parts bin?

I crashed my TRX a couple of months ago and I though it was time I got it back to a road worthy state. However, I'm struggling to find some parts at all, and other parts at a decent price. I was wondering if I'd be better off searching for parts from one of the bikes the TRX borrowed bits from (eg the FZR), can anyone tell me if any of these bits are shared with any other Yamaha bikes?
Clutch Grip
LH Clip on
Gear Lever
Exhaust hanger
Cheers

mate,
have you posted in the "wanted" section of this 'ere forum for the bits you need?
Where in the world are you? May be worth adding your location to your forum info section.
I have most of those bits spare that you need....

I've been keeping an eye on the classifieds but hadn't seen any of the bits I'm after, suppose it couldn't hurt to post a wanted ad, it's just that there seems to a crap load of cheap FZR bits on Ebay and I know Yamaha 'borrowed' a fair few bits in the production of the TRX.
I'm in Biggleswade, Bedfordshire, might be interested in those bits if you have any spare, will drop you a PM!

always worth doing a Wanted post. Little standard bits like this members wont list as for sale but may have them kicking about if asked .... Like me!
Yep, got your PM. Will check tomoz what bits I have, but....
Whats a Clutch Grip? The black perch that holds the lever.
Which side can hanger you need? Need the pillion peg to go with it?
Is it just the gear lever you want, not the whole assembly?
LH clip-on as you look at it sitting on the bike

Cheers, that'd be hugely appreciated.
Clutch grip as in the rubber bit that covers the clip on bar.
It's the left hanger, don't need the pillion peg. Mine may be salvageable though, managed to straighten it out a fair bit with the help of a blowtorch so there's hope there...
Just the gear lever itself, the linkage et al all survived OK.
It's the left clip on if you're sat on the bike, could do with a bar end weight as well about half of mine got ground off as the bike got chucked down the road

Ariete make quality replica grips that match the pattern of the originals. I have them on my bike and am very happy with them, they are more comfortable than the originals.

They're the third row down, in the centre. part no. Cod. 01681/SSF

http://www.2wheelpros.com/gives you a cross reference of what a particular part fits by punching in the part number
&
http://www.partshark.com/ will usually give you the best prices

Shipping is ~$40 min I think though, so best to shop smart.

I recently bought a heap of parts from here. Prices are a fraction of what I was quoted over here.
