    The screws will provide a mechanical lock, better than adhesive alone.

      well I can still redrill and add a small screw . Will have to run to the hardware and see how small I can find.

      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.

        Ed..Do you think the weight of two screws would be an issue as far as slide function as compared to the 3 other unbroken ones?????

          No problem with a small bit of weight chuck. Use small screws.

          Would be best to do this before the glue drys. The idea is to flare the plastic post out a smig to swedge it against the hole in the diaphragm.

            On my DRZ350S, it snaps on to the slide holder and is a separate replaceable part. Wish they were all like that.

              well as a test, I filled a 20 OZ pop bottle with water and tied a string tight around the slide and suspended it from the slide.. It lifted the 20 OZs no problem and i seriuosly doubt any stresses like that will ever be applied to the slides unless its during a very violent crash. I am claiming a victory on this one..( fingers crossed..LOL ) PS...I dont suggest this as a standard stress test..I thought i was gonna tear the diaphram at one point. I should have used maybe about 1/3 of a bottle.

                  Looked for something abit more reasonable in weight and found a half full can of paint stripper to use. Can says 15oz , so i would say this is around 8 to 10oz of weight suspended by the repair. I think this fix is gonna be ok.
