GS400 Master Cylinder

[thecount]

Howdy everyone, would anyone know where a fella would be able to get a master cylinder for a 1980 GS400? Mine really is at a stage where the res, rubber insert and cap all need to be replaced and I am not scoring any goals finding anything
Any advice greatly appreciated.
Cheers

GS400 Master Cylinder

Howdy there BassCliff

Thanks for the welcome. need a pic well here one is. Had the wee bike for about 20 years and it has been laid up in a shed for about the last 12 (not even started, till a few months ago and was thrown into a instant 800 kilometre ride to a new home), thus the un compliant master cylinder.

Found a new parts finder service here in Aus so hopefully onto a lead or two.

Cheers

Hi,

What a nice looking bike!



There are a few GS members "down under" (Suzuki_Don? Zooks?) who might be able to help you source some parts. I know shipping from the States can be unreasonable.

Click on the "UserCP" link in the upper left corner of the page and update your location and other information if you like. There may be another member not too far away.


Thank you for your indulgence,

BassCliff

Good stuff Gav and welcome! Where in Aus you hiding? There's quite a few of us around here from all over the shop.

Anyways, I haven't looked yet but I'll also be needing a master cylinder for my 450 once I get towards finishing the rebuild, and my intention was to go scour the local bike wreckers.

Let us know how you go, always good to see another GS getting back up and running!

Wow, I am really liking that 400. That looks to be an excellent ride for the Mrs first bike.
