    Brake Lever Light Switch Contacts??

    I am in the process of building a 1980 GS850G, and noticed that the contacts for the brake light switch are missing from the brake handle assembly. I believe they are parts 6, 7, and 8 shown in this diagram:



    Does anyone know where I can get these parts? I have only been able to find part 6 at this point.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    You can e-mail me directly at banzai240@yahoo.com if you have these parts and want to sell them.

    Thanks,

    Hi,

    Click the link in my sig file below to find lots of GS850G lovin'. Start with the READ ME page. You can buy an entire new front brake light switch for about $6 at www.partsnmore.com. Welcome to the forum.

    Thank you for your indulgence,

      Yes, but Parts-n-More has a $35 minimum order.

      The good part of that is that they carry enough stuff at decent prices that you can easily make that minimum.

      Please also be aware that they have a flat-rate shipping charge of $8 and that they are in Canada, so shipping time is delayed a few days for border crossing.

        I would rather trust my bike to a "QUACK" that KNOWS how to fix it rather than a book worm that THINKS HE KNOWS how to fix it.

          Darin, where are you located? You might want to put that in your profile so it can be easier to help.

          With that said, have you talked to your local Suzuki dealer? These aren't that expensive and they'll probably have one as they are still used on other bikes.
