    tail trim

    How do you attach the clips holding the silver tail trim to the tail on a GS1000S?

    A little pressure to spread them and slide them up from the bottom.
    There are a couple pics in this post in case you have never seen them installed.

      Clips? Those are hard to find. I would love to get a set.

          I would never trust them to stay on but themselves, that's why they are hard to find. I'd glue them for sure.

            Mine were gone on my GS850 along with the trim. I bought a replacement from Suzuki years ago that was made out of a light gauge aluminum and glued it on with JB Weld.
