Title: Need 1 stock bar end
Post by: NjDan on January 21, 2013, 11:44:08 AM
I have an 06 gs500f the PO lost the throttle side bar end so I am looking for a replacement...I know many of you have lost one and sometimes replace them with aftermarket if you happen to have the stock one sitting on a shelf I'll take it off your hands :) I need the whole assembly not just the cap

It's possible one of the resident parts whores have one they'd be willing to part with cheaply.

If not, there's this on eBay:

That set on ebay needs:
1. Longer bolts
2. Inner spacer
3. Nut for end of bolt
4. Rubber expansion bushing

The only problem with my pile of used ones is the rubber bushing is usually worn out. Probably could make one with a stack of rubber faucet washers of the right size. $3.50 for that bushing, not too expensive, so get one from your local dealer. Often the bolt is bent a little, but can be straightened.

A new complete set is $25 or less if you google the part number: 56200-01841
It is not a GS500 specific part - it is a generic Suzuki part used on many different bikes.

You have to check them once in a while to be sure they're still on tight. They can work loose - as you've found.

I'll check. I know I have 2 pair which were run through the cleaner so they're shiny silver and require painting. I'll check for a good looking one that has not had the paint cleaned off.

Got one. Some very slight rash on it but not bad at all. Bolt has a tiny bend but you can straighten it if you feel necessary. Bushing is NEW ($3.51) as I keep some in stock (I'm a parts whore!).
I can mail it to you for $12. if Ok, then PM me for details.
