      When Basscliff gave you the megawelcome, he included links to parts fiches you could use to confirm parts numbers between models and years. That will be a good place to start

        Hi,

        I have no direct experience but, knowing Suzuki's affinity to re-use parts, I would think that those parts you mention would be similar enough to be usable. With the harness you may need to shorten or lengthen a wire here or there. I'm not sure if the gauge cluster is different between those two models so the connectors may be different. If you're good with wiring diagrams you may be able to make everything work. Good luck.

        (Note: If
        the newer part numbers return no results, use the older, superseded numbers.)



        Thank you for your indulgence,

        BassCliff

            Have a look at the wiring diagrams in the manuals and I think there are very few differences between 81 and 82, so I don't think you'll have any issues with that.

            The 80 - 82 models are all very similar, things changed a lot in 83.
