Title: Needed Quickly
Post by: pastor1 on August 11, 2004, 10:25:43 AM
does anyone know where i can get the bolt that connects the brake line from the mastercylinder to the rear brake caliper. It has the hole through it to let the brake fluid into the rear caliper. Also the cover that goes over the rear brake caliper.  If i look down at my rear brake I can see the brake pads inside the caliper, the cover is missing.  If any of you can help I would greatly appreciate it.

I'd say your local dealer would be your best bet. They probably wouldn't have that in stock, but it doesn't usually take too long for them to get stuff...plus you can show them exactly what you're after on their fiche if you need to.

Good luck.  :cheers:

The bolt (called a "banjo bolt" ) is a standard Suzuki brake line bolt (1.5 pitch I think). If the dealer doesn't have some I would be suprised.

The cover is just a dust cover, it doesn't do anything structural.  

I can send you both for $1 if pay the postage.

Using the "Dealer Locator" at http://www.suzukicycles.com, I came up with 3 dealers in the area.  If THIS LINK doesn't work, try it a second time.  (2nd time works for me!) If it still doesn't work you can start from that Suzuki homepage and do the search yourself.
