Need a set of factory front fork reflectors and the mounting brackets. Junior is missing them. Need them to complete process of bringing him back to factory specs. These are the rectangular upper fork mounted reflectors for an "E", not the round ones on the "F" that are mounted low on the fork.

OK, guess I should admit that the FIRST thing I did when I bought my GS was to fling those things into the trash!

I did some searching on the 'net; the cheapest price I could find for those critters was here:

http://www.suzukipartsnation.com

I searched for the K/L/M/N/P models, which covers 1989 - 1993; they all used the rectangular reflectors. They're located on the HEADLAMP diagram, which you can see here:

You'll need part numbers 17 & 18, unless you already have the nuts (#18).

The Suzuki names and part numbers are:

#17  REFLEX REFLECTOR, FRONT SIDE,  35950-43431  $8.35 EA

#18  NUT,  08316-26055  $1.18 EA

Don't forget to add tax and shipping. RonAyers has the reflectors for $8.86 EA (Nuts are $0.72 EA), and the thieves at ElBanditos have them for $10.70 EA (Nuts are $1.44 EA)...

Probably cheaper for you to order them online if you want them in perfect condition, but if you're willing to wait for someone here to find some acceptable ones in a box somewhere, that is your choice.

Up to you now; I doubt you'll find them any cheaper than I did. FWIW, the Suzuki Nation total BEFORE tax and shipping is $19.06, and the Ron Ayers total is $19.16, so this will probably come down to which one is closer to you for tax and shipping...

Hope this helps...

For real Suzi parts, I get 10 to 20% off everything at my dealer (I'm an SOC member) and no shipping.
I just thought if someone had a set they have taken off, they'd give a good deal. I'm not in any rush.
I have half a dozen round ones. I could always put those on the forl with a hose clamp like one model Bandit (I think) did. Anyway, I bought a set like that for Suzi since the fog lights took off the reflectors. I wanted reflectors back on so that's what I bought. Fairing prevents using the older rectangular reflectors. I can always mount 2 round reflectors on the side of the fender. I have as few fenders so that would be free.

I'd just like to try to be factory original where possible.
