    Does anyone know what rear brake arms will fit an '83 GS750E/ES?

    Hi,

    I found this on some guy's website. Here's one way to find out....

    Parts Cross Reference Procedure - using a couple of our favorite online resources.

    1. Start here:
    Buy parts at a low price for your snowmobile here at Alpha Sports, we carry a LARGE variety of parts and accesories.


    2. Find your bike by year and model. Select the part you wish to reference.

    3. Identify the part number, right-click and copy the part number.

    4. Then use Babbit's cross-reference utility here:


    5. In the pull-down menu labeled "Brands", select "Suzuki".

    6. Right-click and paste the part number copied from alpha-sports into the line labeled "Search for".

    7. Click "Quick lookup".

    You are then presented with every model that the referenced part will fit.


    Thank you for your indulgence,

    BassCliff

      I have a stock one if you need one... It has been squashed slightly by TPO to fit a 140 tyre. Any of the GS ones will fit on the ends but the length is different, the 750 one is shorter from memory.

      What you trying to do?

          So you need stock 750? If so send me an offer on this one. Needs painting.

            I gave that a shot and despite the fact that the reference number and the part number are off by one at the Alpha Sports site, Babbit's only listed the 83 GS750E/ES as the same part number. Now, I doubt that's true as my guess is that GS700's also use the same part.

            Thanks for the links though. I'll use them in the future even though they didn't work this time.

              Thanks for the offer but I bought one from an 85 GS700 on Ebay before I noticed this. My guess is they are the same so we'll see how that works out.
