    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.

I'm replacing the Master Cylinder of my 1978 GS1000 which of the following will work for me:

Go to any parts fiche vendor website, such as this one: http://www.suzukipartshouse.com/oemparts/c/suzuki_motorcycle/parts

Find the rear MC on your year/model and note the part number: http://www.suzukipartshouse.com/oemparts/a/suz/50d40240f8700230d8b4e6bc/rear-master-cylinder

Now go to the year/model for those others that you listed. If the part numbers are the same, you're in business.

That rear master cylinder was used on a lot of years and models, so you'll probably be okay just eyeballing it. Are you sure you need a whole new master cylinder? These are easily rebuilt with new internal parts. If you buy a used one, you should plan on rebuilding that one too so that you know, beyond a shadow of a doubt, that your brakes are in good working condition.
