I am interested in Arrow spare parts number 5855109 (arrow plate, dark
line) and part number 3608016 (Black Aluminium 3.0 mm Rivet).

Arrow replied to me and told me how much these cost, but when I asked where I can buy these, no replies.  Does anyone know where I can buy these things?  I am hoping they are the same size as my yellow/blue plates so I can swap them out.

That's brilliant!  I've wanted to do that but figured it wasn't possible to get the parts.  Let me know what you find!

I get my Arrow parts from Jason at Motovation.

Any arrow dealer should do,

I'm partial to Eurosports.net bill will take care of you

Also some of the board sponsors should be able to help ya

I've tried several different Arrow retailers and the one that replied said they didn't carry these parts.  Unless there are better stocked Arrow retailers somewhere I guess this will have to wait.

This is more than likely a close match for the rivets, depending on the length....

As far as the plate, I can help without a picture.

I used 3/16  x 1/4" rivets with my arrows.

I am looking for p/n 22 and p/n 9B.  The dark line series has suffix -AON.  It shows Arrow part 5855109 in the -AON column.  I guess the different p/n is because the part is black/silver instead of blue/yellow.  I can get the 3mm rivets at a lot of places but I thought it would be nice to get them from Arrow - no need for the rivets if I can't get the plates.  I have 4 Arrow exhaust systems and would swap out all 4 if I could get the parts.

Did some research on this.  Here is what I found.  The kit (dark plate and dark rivets) is available for $14.00 plus shipping from Arrow's Canadian distributor, Eurocorsa.  The spacing between the rivets is approximately 4.75".  I'm considering this as I just disassembled the cans and am in the process of reassembling them. 

I may be on crack but I think I've seen photos of Arrow cans without the badge, is this available as an option or is it something the owners somehow managed on their own?

That would look nice.  I'm pretty sure that the owner must have modded them.

I'm guessing you can just put rivets without the badge.  Not sure how else that would happen.  Hmm...maybe I'll leave out my scratched up badge.

Thanks for the tip!  I've e-mailed them and we'll go from there.

Let me know how this goes.  I would love to get a set to replace the crappy yellow and blue ones on mine.

Eurocorsa is getting some in on Monday, so I've got my project on.  I *think* they'll fit - I'll report back as soon as I know for sure.

I saw another post on Arrow...  still no parts even after supposedly going to the show in Milan and talking to Arrow directly :(

ive had a rivet strap and the dark plate on order for over a month. apparently getting any exhaust mfc to send replacement parts for any bike/system is like pulling teeth.

I'd love to do this too.  I was thinking painting mine, but I'd rather go this route.

Let us know what you find out man.  I'll put an order in too if they look good and gon on well.

I have an extra arrow rivet strap I can sell you, if you want it PM me.

I don't understand why you don't just paint them or have them coated. You could have been done with this already! Instead of complaining about how long it takes to get parts just rattle can the damn things and be done with it. Is a 'Dark Line' badge really worth this much hassle? Maybe you should have ordered your exhaust kits like that to begin with! The Italians are having a laugh at your expense right now as we speak. What do you think makes the 'Dark Line' parts dark?...... Paint, ya fools!!! [roll]

If you like the look of the dark logo you have to hand-paint the blue background black and the "Arrow" white.  Rattle-canning it won't work.  I don't know about you, but my hand isn't steady enough for an acceptable end product.

One alternative, I suppose, is to remove the logos all together and just replace the rivets.

That's why they make masking tape. It would take about 10 cents in tape and maybe 20 minutes in time.

Err, that's a negative [thumbsdown]
Just hit the whole dang badge with some BBQ paint. The badge plate is embossed so the ARROW logo is still readable, just not in your face per usual. Nothing 'Dark' about a logo with white lettering now is there? That's even more in your face than the original! All the people who are familiar with the product will still know what it is, all that aren't familiar won't have a clue nor will they care. It's a LOGO - basically free advertising for Arrow that you bought & paid for to have on your bike. I think Arrows are the bomb, but that giant logo is embarrassing. To each his own, but you guys waiting months for a BADGE and complaining about it online are beyond the pale of 'tarded and you deserve what you get! Bet those guys at Arrow are enjoying your irrational obsession with the color of the badge. If I were them I'd make you wait for at least six to nine months, and upcharge you out the wazoo just for kicks. Why don't you all get angry & fly on over there and confront them at the front desk [laugh]
Just paint the make the beast with two backser already, JEEEEEEEEZ

unless of course you highside and scrape the shit out of your badge. :P

Not complaining, just reporting as others have asked me to do.  What I don't understand is a company goes to all the trouble to publish spare part numbers and will not sell spare parts.  Not just to me but for maybe someone who has a real need for a spare part from Arrow.  I am not an artist, If I can't get the parts, I'll live with what I have.

You obviously have your panties in a wad over a non-problem.

G'day Bill

I have the silver and black Arrow badge on my carbon cans , that part number badge (5855109) you listed is indeed a direct swap.
I got mine from the local importer here in Australia (Admant Industries) who had them in stock and shipped straight away.

Thank You for the tip Sir.  It must be our distributor then.  I've sent them an email, I've had good luck getting bits from Australia before.

its not just arrow, for whatever reason exhaust mfc in general are notoriously difficult to get parts from. thats why most shops wont order spare parts for you, it can take months (if ever) and they dont want to be put in the middle of that.

About 10 or so years ago I needed a part for my Aprilia's Arrow shotgun exhaust.  At the time, it was GioMoto in Las Vegas that was the distributor.  The guy took the part I needed out of the box of a new system and shipped it to me to get me back on the road and said they would replace theirs with a part from Italy.  That was real service.  I have bought 5 full Arrow systems over the years and still have 4 of them, it is nice stuff but their customer service seems to have changed when their distributor changed.

Pot meet kettle. I'm not the one obsessing over a badge on a muffler! My panties are just fine & dandy thank you; I'm simply amazed at you guys whining over this insignificance, which causes me to waste my time telling you how silly you sound. [moto]
I hope you get your parts but JEEEEZ just hit it with some paint already. Not that difficult, cheaper, immediate, don't have to drill the rivets out & no one will know the diff. Wonder what Truckinduc would do in a situation like this. He probably wouldn't wait 2 months for a stinkin badge. There's more reward in taking the law into your own hands than you think.
Why don't you come up with a 'Silver Line' badge? Just drop the original in a container of used brake fluid for about a week, then wipe it off. Maybe polish it even. The logo is embossed. You don't need to paint the letters. No skill required. Might look really cool. Anything's better than being the chump waiting for a strip of aluminum with a logo on it.

Hum, I get spare parts from Arrow pretty regularly. Usually takes 1 week to get in my hands from Italy - sometimes 2.  ???

I have 4 pieces coming from Australia - problem solved, but it will probably be 6 months before I get around to installing them.

I can't even get an email response - All I asked was "where can I buy spare Arrow parts"

Greg Centuori replied to tell me how much they cost...  

If you can get Arrow parts, I need a few more bits before my Frankenstein exhaust project is complete.
