So I dropped my bike this morning and the end of my break lever broke off. I am soooo mad about this  :x Where would be the best place to get one from? Im in Canada but I buy most of my stuff from the net in the US. I have a 2005 GS500F. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

You could try here they seem to have good prices.  At least compared to the dealers around here they did.

Even if the voices aren't real they have some good ideas.

brAKE levers go for about $15 US on eBay, OEM suzuki parts; you can get a new clutch + brake lever together for about $5 more, plus S&H

But how much do break levers cost?

:P Who needs brake lever, or brakes for that matter? They only slow you down.  :P

I made a lever for breaking tire beads out of $4 worth of 2x4 and $3 of miscellaneous hardware, does that count ? <(''<) <( '' )> (>'')>

Isn't that what the "Break" lever was designed to do?  :dunno:

I'd try your local Suzuki dealer.  If they don't have it in stock, they'll get it for you in just a few days.  If the price seems out-of-line, then maybe the internet.

The problem with ordering from a U.S.-based internet location is that they may not ship cross-border.  Even if they do there's the added tax to consider -- may not be a deal.

The dealer is probably the easiest way to getting your bike whole again.

I've mentioned this before, but up in Riverside, CA I got mine (new oem) for a whopping $7.95 after a similar mishap (damn center stand... or rather damn newbie doing it wrong).

It'll give your hand character.  The ball on the end is intended to protect whatever it hits during the accident by making it a blunt object.  It'll go right through your hand in an off without that ball.  For $8, I'd just get another.

This thread has some interesting interpretations of English words ("break" and "gived")
