Title: Headlamp shell
Post by: Dusty ST on Monday, 16 April 2018, 12:28 AM
Had a search and surprisingly can't find anything...
Question is... does the GSX share it's headlight with other Suzukis?
The front bezel on mine is quite badly rusted on the lower edge so I'm after another.

Sv's , bandits and gsx500 for a start
Some have chrome bowls some have black plastic bowls .
Go to Robinsons foundry and cross ref the part numbers you need it'll show what other bikes share the same part .
:cheers:

Thanks Seth, cross checking the numbers at RF I've found a couple on Ebay... £60 which is more like it.
RF list £220 for a Suzuki one  :onya:

Interesting all the LED headlamp options that turn up, I'll not be going for one - just interesting......

I'd probably hang on to it, particularly if I go for a non Suzuki replacement, you never know when the OEM might be useful!

Mk2 (after 2000) 600/1200/650 and 1250 Bandits share the same headlight.
The problem is that a lot of Bandit riders with faired bikes want to go "Naked" so they are pretty rare, hard to find and usually very expensive.
