If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

Are you sure about that? I posted a thread a few weeks ago here about a similar issue which no one replied to, but after lots more searching and making some calls I put an order in with Partzilla which included 13682-31210 'STARTER VALVE C --- CAP, CAP, STARTER', based on this parts diagram. My parts come in Monday, so I can let you know if what I ordered was correct.

no i am not sure, thats why i said to let us know if he finds any!!!!!!!
will be interesting to see if they are correct, although even if they do fit your bike, they may not fit other GS models ;)
 
The new parts turned out to be a mix; brass nut, but with the small plunger opening and cap.





So if you're looking for the larger caps, I don't know the part number, but the part numbers in my previous post work together at least. The inner diameter of the boot is the same for both, so they are interchangeable with either plunger shaft.
 
that is great to know. i think a lot of guys will be happy now that you have found these parts.
how much are they?
 
From Partzilla, not including shipping:

Brass choke plunger nut (small cap): 13418-44080 - $6.53
Choke plunger boot (small): 13682-31210 - $2.89
Choke plunger nut o-ring (between nut and carb body): 13278-47090 - $1.25
 
so just over $10 for a complete plunger nut assembly with brass nut,new boot and o ring.

sounds like a bargain to me..........
 
Is that rubber cap even neccessary? One was ruined on my 750 and I just left it off.
 
One of my choke plunger nuts was broken, similar to missing the cap, and that plunger had some scoring on it from the dirt that got in there, and did not slide or return as smoothly. Short-term it's probably okay to run without a cap, but I've read of people having issues with one carb's choke plunger hanging and causing running issues, which is probably symptomatic of dirt making it past that cap seal.
