Dumb question, but I am having a difficult time finding float bowl gaskets for my 82 450. I ordered the cycleorings kit but still need bowl gaskets. I can find them for '83+ or in rebuild kits but thats it.

Get some gasket paper and a sharp razor blade. -
Can't go wrong with OEM.
Item #17. Yeah, they are $6.60 each, but you KNOW they will fit.

If in a pinch you can use one of the old gaskets as a template and cut some fresh ones from autoparts store gasket paper. A paper hole punch is a good match for the screw holes. Scissors and an Xacto work well for jobs like that.Last edited by Nessism; 11-10-2014, 07:27 PM.Ed

Sirius Consolidated folks!!!! Ive said it dozens of times. Save money, great quality, they HAVE PILOT SCREWS CHEAP.......... Even with shipping your still way under dealer pricing.
See page 7. On the home page it will say Sellect make....choose Suzuki
Where it says choose part...choose carb parts.

I would rather trust my bike to a "QUACK" that KNOWS how to fix it rather than a book worm that THINKS HE KNOWS how to fix it.Comment

Thanks for the responses. I'll probably go with those from parts outlaw, thanks Steve! I have no desire to make my own, my time just isn't worth the frustration for $6. Also it looks like sirius only carries ones for 83+, cool site though.Comment
