Choke Perch and Lever for 82 1100E?

[mmattockx]

My 1100E came to me with no choke cable, perch or lever. I just pull the choke rod manually but I would like to get it back to the stock set up. Partzilla doesn't show the perch or lever, just the choke cable. Before I call my local stealer, is the perch and lever still available or am I shopping for used bits on fleabay? Can someone post a pic of their 1100E showing the left handlebar with the OEM perch and lever in place? My service manual only shows the routing of the choke cable with no details on the bar end of things.


Thanks,
Mark

The new parts are still available. I have purchased a few handlebar setups in the past few years.

These look like the clutch parts? I have those and there is no choke lever perch incorporated into the clutch lever pivot/mount.

I will have to call the stealer and see what they want for it, thanks.

This may help, but bear in mind this is for a UK model. One of the big US dealers should have a similar fiche.

Thanks, Steve. I wasn't paying close enough attention on the Partzilla fiche. It also has those parts and they are listed if I actually had looked properly. It appears the reason I don't have the bar mounted choke is that I don't have the original LH switch. The one on my bike has no boss on the bottom for mounting the choke lever assembly. Unless I am misreading the fiche and it doesn't screw into the bottom of the switch housing. Can someone confirm that the choke lever assembly does screw into the underside of the switch body? My switch is marked on the underside of the switch body with:

SUZUKI
374-6
TOKAIRIKA


Anybody have any idea what I have here?

You can buy the correct left handebar switch assembly with the choke actuator for $121.61 from Partzilla. Obviously the choke actuator (aka body, starter lever) screwed into the bottom of the handlebar switch as there is a screw shown at the bottom of the assembly. If you feel lucky, you can get a used left handlebar switch with the clutch cable actuator already in place:
