i was wondering if anyone who has owned a 79 gs850 has replaced the rear disc brake because im trying to do that right now by buying a used one online. the only thing is.... i dont know what truly fits and what doesnt... so any info on that would be amazing. thanks!

-Aris
 
The 750, 850 and 1000 from that year, were all the same.
I replaced the rear one on my '79 750 with one off of an '81 850.
(I just wanted the factory drilled disc's)
So, probably a bunch of years/models are the same. ;)

just the disc? 59210-18402 is the part number. There is a guy here that has an interchange database application. I will try to find him and give you his name so you can PM him.
 
The thickness of the disc and the off-set on the rear is different from the front disc's.
The front ones are labeled Min. Thk. 4.5mm (right and left with the slots) and the rear is Min. Thk. 6mm.
The inside pattern, is also different as can be seen here:
(the top one, is for the rear)

The '78-'79 front rotors are interchangeable. I have a couple of rear ones that I could sell for $15 each plus shipping.

It shows the rear disc as 59210-18401 on the page but pops up 59210-18402 when you click the link to order the part.

Just one of those things I guess. No one but a rich guy could buy OEM anyway. 331 buck OUCH!

Hi,

Yep, you got to watch out for them pesky know-it-all computers. Superseded part numbers can be tricky when doing cross-references. It works better using the original part numbers. Alpha-sports is notorious for the highest prices on the net. I'll bet cyclepartsnation.com, partshark.com, and gssuzuki.com have better prices, but still kind of steep. :eek:


Thank you for your indulgence,

I have the zedder software but it's at work and I actual get both sat/sun off. First time since Christmas. Therefore, I won't have access to it until Monday.

You should checkout www.cheapcycleparts.com. I think they have very good prices. They have OEM Parts too.
 
you guys are the best! thanks for all your awesome info. this helps me so much and i appreciate everything from you guys. i'll let you guys know what ends up happening with this.
 
I guess that beats the $26.00 WITH shipping that I offered you, eh? :rolleyes:

Just sayin'

Daniel
 
Yes a comparison of the shipping rate should be done. Ebayers always seem to screw you on the S&H if they can.
Also if a memebr here soes something bad he will get smacked down by the collective wheras an EBay dude is always iffy. Notice how you dont see both sides!
 
JEEP, did you even look at his link?
I guess that $31.00 with shipping, is ALWAYS less expensive than $26.00 with shipping right? :rolleyes:

I dont get it shipping here is done based on weight and distance point to point.

Is it flat rate anywhere in the US? I also thought the part was 14.99 buy it now. Dunno why but the hallucinations are starting a bit early today.

As with a lot of software that you may get on a torrent, you wont be able to use it if you do find it on a torrent. piracy sux and programmers use code to stop piracy!

The code that is required for this program to be used is emailed directly from Zedder and you need to copy paste it as it has loads of special characters!

I bought my copy from Steve about 5 years ago and it is absolutely AWESOME!!!
