    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Missing airbox screw

So I got to the point of fixing the airbox on the GS550L I'm restoring and I add weatherstripping then i go to screw it down and I find the previous owner only gave me one screw for the airbox cover, where can i get this screw? none of the schematics seem to have a number for it.

Also, when i touch the filter material it seems to falls apart, seems as though ill need a new one. Where can these be purchased cheap. I'd prefer OEM so i dont have to mess with jetting.
 
ok cool, I was thinking maybe it was some special japanese voodoo screw.
 
Many options for air-box filters.
Uni
K&N
Stock
Try mrcycles.com for stock or Ebay for all
 
so on that site, here it list 2 parts that point to the filter, part 2 and 3, is 3 just the filter material?

Is it possible to just replace the filter material for alot cheaper? anyone try this?
 
well thats pretty sweet... is it possible to buy filter material and slap it together myself?
 
I wouldn't recommend it......Why would you ? The dang thing is only $13....

If you have a Suzuki dealer near you, you may get lucky and they'll have one in stock.:)
 
$13 is the list price, after shipping id expect more like $40 because i live in Canada. If I cant find a local dealer, making it myself would feel awfully satisfying.
 
Ahhh...yes...Canada shipping is terrible....maybe some of the other folks from there will chime in.

I've never heard of anyone doing that, but, that doesn't mean it can't be done.:)
