    Can't find brakes gs425

    Hey people! I have a 79 gs425L that I am trying to find rear drum brake shoes. Any recommendations? I can't find anything online.

    Welcome and post of pic of your bike if you can!
    I think those are on bikebandit for $46 OEM, part numbers 1111173 (513163-001)??? lots of other sources too I am sure, that was just the first one I checked. I would recommend just calling them to be sure and they might recommend other hardware kits to go along with it.

      AWESOME. I looked on bike bandit, but I couldn't find the rear wheel diagram... then I tried again

      I ripped the bike apart completely and painted two summers ago, and now Im putting it back together. I figured I should put new shoes on the pig.

        I bought some shoes from them and those are Emgo brand. Cannot comment on the quality/stopping power as I have not installed them yet (waiting for chain/sprocket replacement in a few months).

          The Suzuki part number is 64400-11860 and they are $34.48 with free shipping from G&S Suzuki.

          While Bike Bandit is usually an OK source, they are usually the second most expensive supplier (right behind Alpha Sports) and have their own part numbering system, which makes it difficult to cross-reference any parts.

              Front brakes

              So I ended up ordering the wrong brakes for my 79 gs425l. I ended up getting the e or the n model ones. They do, however, look easilly modded to fir the l. Has anyone tried this?

                Hmmmm...

                Did I steer you wrong with CRC2? Can you post pics to show the differences?

                    I ordered the shoes from crc2, and the box is sitting at my fiance's office. They should be fine, because the part numbers I found online are the same across the E, N or L. It's the front pads that have a different shaped tab on them. Once I get to the garage this week I will take some photos.
