    La sleeves picture??

    Was looking at sleeves for the blue 1000C from Texas and this is the picture on the FL-654 thats listed on the chart. My question is whats the cutouts all about? Are the ones pictured just a generic picture? If i buy them from LA Sleeves will i get sleeves that are solid all the wat down exactly like the OEM ones? Im new to buying sleeves so forgive me if im asking dumb questions.

      LA Sleeves = BIG MONEY

      Then you gotta add extra to install, hone, deck.

      Oh, and yes, generic photos.

        Thats what im thinking too. Someone thats bought 1000 sleeves from LA can verify, but i think that the ones from LA will be exactly like the OEM ones, I been google searching but cant find the specific suzuki part number for the sleeves.

            I need two..numbers 1 and 4 were very deeply pitted from the water that had sat in there for years. Surprisingly 2 and 3 look like new.

                That's a generic picture.

                I have their FL-654 for the GS1000 - just like the originals.

                  Thanks. Why cant they just use pictures of the actual item being sold.
