GS550ESG Help

[new_gser]

I am a new member and this is my first post. I recently bought an 86 GS550ESG and I need an ignition assembly. (p/n 37100-00A52) I was told by Z1 Enterprises that it has been discontinued by Suzuki and is no longer available. Does anyone know of an aftermarket part or of some other site that may have one for sale? I have already checked E-Bay with no luck. I was able to jump out the ignition and have started the bike and it runs fairly well so I know it is worth putting some money into it. If anyone can be of help it would be greatly appreciated. I would like to get some riding time in before the end of the season.

Show us a picture or a copy of one the parts diagrams showing your part. When you say ignition assembly...? which part are you talking about. A part number alone doesn't help any.

Welcome new_gser. I'm suprised z1 didn't steer you to an aftermarket part. Check this out:

I'm sure a more seasoned member will chime in with welcomes and some more (better) advice. Stand by.

He is probably looking for the ignition switch. Is the one on your bike missing or just broken? If its broken it may be possible to rebuild it.
If the key portion is messed up, a locksmith may be able to repair it.
Without being able to see the original switch it is hard to tell if another year switch assembly could be adapted to fit your bike. You could probably fabricate a mount so that you could install another switch onto your bike.

They say they have access to hundred of used bikes.

The guy I bought the bike from said someone tried to steal it when it was in front of his house with the For Sale sign on it. The part where the key goes in is busted off completely and the base is busted up pretty bad. I have attatched a drawing of the wiring harness assembly and I am looking for item 12 on the drawing.
