    Not horny!!!

    Little help folks. An old member here that has been gone too long. Saturday I took Suzi ('82 GS1100GKZ) on a ride with my pastor and about 15 people including former rocker Mylon Lefevre. Anyway, about half way thru the ride, my horn button just popped out! I hadn't gone 50 feet and the spring followed it. I couldn't very well stop everyone in the middle of a turn. Can the button be replaced from another old unit or do you have to buy another control cluster? Some don't use it much but I really try to keep folks off me in traffic. Thanks for all the input in advance, I'll check back tomorrow...

      You can get the horn button, contact and spring right from Suzuki. All three are probably under $10. Check Bike Bandit or other online parts fiche.

            worn button ears?

            Is the housing cracked at the horn side?? if not then the ears on the horn button have gone bad and grown weak.. and the vibration give it the go ahead and it went.. if the housing is cracked then you are looking at about $65 from $uzuki.. ( I priced one for just the housing) it includes everything.. housing is not available by its lonesome..

            btw I have one from a 79-80 550 that may work send me an email

            (If it is not violating anything) at joep.dey@gmail.com

                  You can order any and all parts you need for the cluster from Bikebandit.com

                  You got to ride with Mylon! :shock: It's a BIG WORLD man! If you ever see him again, give him a brotherly hug from me. I have all his works and followed everything he and the broken heart did over the years. Takes me back man.


                  Where was this ride if I may ask?
