Missing airbox screw

[Adler]

So I got to the point of fixing the airbox on the GS550L I'm restoring and I add weatherstripping then i go to screw it down and I find the previous owner only gave me one screw for the airbox cover, where can i get this screw? none of the schematics seem to have a number for it.

Also, when i touch the filter material it seems to falls apart, seems as though ill need a new one. Where can these be purchased cheap. I'd prefer OEM so i dont have to mess with jetting.

Hardware store. Bring the one you have and ask for a match.

ok cool, I was thinking maybe it was some special japanese voodoo screw.

Many options for air-box filters.
Uni
K&N
Stock
Try mrcycles.com for stock or Ebay for all

so on that site, here it list 2 parts that point to the filter, part 2 and 3, is 3 just the filter material?

Is it possible to just replace the filter material for alot cheaper? anyone try this?

[Larry D]

Part #2 is the box itself. Part #3 is the filter.

[Adler]

well thats pretty sweet... is it possible to buy filter material and slap it together myself?

[Larry D]

I wouldn't recommend it......Why would you ? The dang thing is only $13....

If you have a Suzuki dealer near you, you may get lucky and they'll have one in stock.

$13 is the list price, after shipping id expect more like $40 because i live in Canada. If I cant find a local dealer, making it myself would feel awfully satisfying.

[Larry D]

Ahhh...yes...Canada shipping is terrible....maybe some of the other folks from there will chime in.

I've never heard of anyone doing that, but, that doesn't mean it can't be done.
