but i really dont want to wait another 7 -10 business days to ride again.

Dunno if they'll work.May not stick out far enough for the head light to clear the fork tubes.They will fit the GS forks,just don't over tighten them and squeeze the tube outta round.

For some reason Suzuki discontinued one side but not the other Strange... Your best bet is eBay or find a similar replacement.

From my understanding the headlight brackets are GS specific and no other bike has the same brackets.All the other zuki street bikes have bigger forks.

WHICH Suzuki part numbers are you looking for? Did you remove the fairings from your '04 model? If so, and you're looking for the old-style headlight brackets, remember that the left and right ones are NOT interchangeable. Post some details; I'll start calling around, and see if I can locate any for you. Do you also need the four rubber cushions that fit into the ends of the brackets, or do you already have those? Fill us in on what you need; I think I know at least one guy with an extra set of '89 - '02 brackets, and I'm pretty sure he also has the cushions for them.

He's on the west coast, so I think he could ship them today, or tomorrow at the latest, but ONLY if you post EVERYTHING you need SOON.

Use this drawing as your guide; it is for the '95 model, but IIRC, all of the early ones use identical parts in that area; the '96+ brake calipers and pads are different, but not the steering stem hardware:

Do you need #3, #4, and #5? #3 is the RIGHT bracket, #4 is the LEFT bracket, and #5 are the four rubber cushions...

The sooner you reply, the sooner I'll know whether or not I can help you find those parts...

While I'm waiting for you to reply, I'll start calling some friends...

Send me a PM with your shipping address, and if I can find someone with brackets they're willing to sell, I'll PM you the price to get them shipped to you.

Number 13 is for factory 89 clip ons and is different for bikes with standard handle bars.Just thought I'd add that for future reference.Every thing else should be the same for all E models and F to E conversions.

thanks for all the help guys, but i found some. 24$ shipped from the west coast and they *should* be here Friday or Saturday. i would have liked to get chrome ones becuase the back of my new headlight is chrome, my bars are and so are my mirrors, but i dont care that theyre black i just wanna ride.
