Cafe Racerhttp://www.caferacer.com.au/They carry parts and do dyno work and some scarily quick engine builds. Pretty much the go-to guy for SR/XT/TT500 performance work.

Hank's Engineeringhttp://www.hertmotorcycles.com/Queensland-based engineering services, selling various engine bits and peices with a focus on the XT. They also sell a very affordable SR/XT/TT engine stand. SR500 Club of Australiahttp://www.sr500club.org/pages/home.aspxMuch improved over the old site, but still a way behind Stew Ross' ACT page.

Vanemhttp://www.vanem.com.au/Based in Sydney, Adrian at Vanem has a bloody good product knowledge of what will and what won't fit on your SR. I've ordered a few things off him over the years and he strikes me as quite a nice bloke.
America Mike's XShttp://www.mikesxs.net/It's a different bike but a fair few parts will interchange. I've ordered from Mike before and he has fast shipping and good products. Has a good range of tools that could come in handy as well. Thumperstuffhttp://www.thumperstuff.com/Everyday items for the SR. Very affordable.
