I've tried ebay and all the other 'old Suzuki' parts places that I can think of. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Post or PM your ideas.

Thanks....Mark

I got the one for my 79 from Bikebandit.

Make sure you get the correct one, there's a different MC for the single disc versus the dual disc.

It's not listed on the Cycle Recycle 2 web site, but if anyone could help you out, it would be these guys. They can get a lot of stuff they haven't bothered to list on their site.

Give 'em a call:

Thanks for the help!

You guys are great. It's nice to find a site where people actually care to help each other.

Thanks again.

if those dont help, a good bet is to check out the salvage yards.

I needed one for my '80 gs 850 L, and deciding not to go with the dealers back-order to japan (1 month waiting time) found one through an old jap parts dealer.

i'll bring the link for a list of alot of places around canada that could be successful.

I think your only possibilities are a place like Bikebandit or a dealer for fronts on a pre-80 or 81 (the ones with the round reservior). I'd hesitate to use salvage, it's an 'unknown quantity' in this case. I've been finding though that when there's a leaky master cylinder it's really just jellied brake fluid causing problems, and a thorough cleaning puts it back to 100%. Provided of course the miles aren't that high, but most bikes seem to do more sitting than mileing. You put 100k on a master cylinder though and there's a good chance it's worn out.

Check these folks out. They frequently list stuff on eBay.
