I am in need of 4 cam cover plugs/seals. I just replaced my cam cover gasket (valve cover) and it still leaks in an inspection i found a hole in the cam cover plug. I have check numerous places but they are either out or discontinued. Does anyone have any ideas. I also need a breather gasketl

thanks

Suzuki Canada has lots of NOS parts still available for older Suzukis. I just picked up a center stand spring for a '79 GS1000 that the dealer in my area ordered last week. If you know of a dealer you can probably have him order the parts you need. If not try an old friend of mine, Murray Neibel, at the dealer listed below. He's been selling Suzuki since they started importing them to North America and over the years has bought up a lot of NOS stuff from other dealers who didn't do so well. Hope this helps.

I got mine at bikebandit.com - it's an '80 1100.

I just tried at Bandit but they are out of them and not sure if they can find any. Would take 10 days to find out.

If you're talking about a hole in one of those little "half moon" plugs, couldn't you clean it up then patch the hole with black RTV silicone? Let it cure then cut the excess off the exterior with a razor and you'd never be able to see it.

Just a thought. Maybe you've already done that to get back on the road.

Hi,

Yes I tried to patch them but they have compressed over the years and it leaks from all 4 and patching did not work once it got hot.

Partsandmore is first place I tried but they are out of stock and have not found any as of yet. So they do not know when they will have any.

thanks
