    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. 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.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

parts fiche and www.alphasports.com lists the rear disc for your bike as being the same as for a 1980 I did nit look up other years http://www.alpha-sports.com/suzuki_parts.htm
and you can do the lookups yourself.

I cannot find the name of the parts databse guy sorry.
He is a member from UK or maybe AU.
 
Hi,

Another cross-post. See the responses in your other thread.

I did not find any cross-reference that listed the rear rotor on 1980 850G the same as the 1979 850G.


Thank you for your indulgence,

I have got the Zedder cross reference software but there is several rear disc's listed for the 1979 GS850GN sorry, without a suzuki genuine part number its near on impossible to cross reference.
