my 85 450GA is having a small fuel leak from its https://www.partzilla.com/product/suzuki/13491-44500. I believe it's some form of surge valve. Where are they hiding? I cannot seem to find the rubber OR the complete assembly anywhere. Does someone have 50 in their basement? Either way let me know and I will GLADLY pay you. Otherwise does anyone have any idea how I could make a new one?

Hello Gentlemen,

How about buying a thin sheet of viton rubber, then cutting out a new diaphragm? Depending on size, an old carb slide diaphragm could also be repurposed. A doable project, but not a simple one.
Edit: if you search eBay for "accelerator pump" and then narrow the search to "motorcycle" parts, you will find several options that may work. Honda (Keihin) has a very similar part. It seems to be 29mm diameter, though. I think yours is closer to 25mm? Anyway, you may want to dig around to look for something that can be modified...

I am seeing what you mention in the second part of your message. Maybe a modified part would be best here.Originally posted by Nessism View PostHow about buying a thin sheet of viton rubber, then cutting out a new diaphragm?

I ordered the ebay one mentioned above but they appear to be the same part. The suzukimatic and hondamatic were essentially the same bike with tweaks it seems.Originally posted by 45bpcr View Post
