Get the genuine Yamaha part on www.boats.net like I did after buying the fake part for twice the price - argh!

In Aug of 2011, I ordered two of them (10-5LP-24500-01-00 : FUEL PETCOCK ASSY) from boats.net for $40 shipped. (about $20 each, including shipping)

They said initially the parts were in stock and would ship immediately.
-- Turned out they were out of stock and didn't ship until two weeks later.
-- It was just short of a month from Paypal-ing the money to arrival of the petcocks.
-- They did not tell me there would be a delay. I had to find out myself. I called after three weeks of waiting to find out what was happening.
-- That's my only gripe. Otherwise things worked out okay.

After 8 weeks, they said that part was returned as unclaimed... yeah I waited surely 8 weeks and asked for the part 3 times and then did not pick it up.... so I must re-order.. I just hope that the reshipment really arrives...

For the simple reason that they are not produced in large quantities. I suspect the TOTAL sales of all bikes and scooters together can't match the numbers of, say, Ford F-150 pickups in any given model year.

Yea, Jerry,, I KNow that part, but even knowing that the economy of scale is tilting the wrong way on all this stuff, I still FEEeeeellll like the prices are just kinda Gougy,,ya know? The price on the piston/rings/wrist pin/clips was really more in line with what Id call reasonable. But 18 bukks for a little tube of mesh steel & graphite? Seems a bit much.,

& I dont care if you have a Perfect reason for it being Perfectly reasonable! I dont Care!I just wanna do some gripin here,, Okay? Huh? Izzat gonna be awwrite witchya today?

Well, GOOD,, glad we could get that all cleared up..

The online prices are far more affordable.

I'd still check with the local dealer(s)....you might just get lucky.

I paid less than $25 locally for the Raptor petcock, OTD, back in 2009.
