    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 see several references to it in the manual. I'm assuming it's somehow different than Loctite.

What does it do, and are there similar products that could accomplish the same task?
 
In my factory service manual, there are about 5 or 6 different types of thread lock (Suzuki Bond) mentioned. I wish I had information on what the differences are, but I don't.

Each installation process has the "proper" compound specified, but I don't think it would hurt to stick to the regular blue or red loctite depending on the need.

Hi, The Suzuki bond you refer to comes in 2 grades the grey stuff is good but the white stuff is better (and more money) Solved? Nah, it is just great stuff you use to asseemble the engine but any top grade sealant will to the same deal.
 
I always try to use "Suzuki Bond", I find it better than a lot of commonly available gasket sealants & it doesn't leave so much of an obvious tell tale colour. But it is about 5 times the price

Suzuki Bond is used to seal the cases when the cases have been split, It is not expensive, and is not really even needed in ones toolbox unless you split the cases. Yamabond, honda bond, all the same thing. BUT. if you have split the cases and maint instructions call for this suzuki bond, fight the urge to cut costs here, The main money savings is in doing it yourself. Man made it, man can fix it, or if I can't fix it, I'll f#@& it up so bad no one else can fix it either.
