Wanted: Correct handlebars for GT750 - J model

Post by MikeH1A »

Does anyone have a set of the factory original bars for the J? The bars on my bike are revolting - too narrow and too high (how the PO ever rode her I'll never know :wth: ). I've been ofered 4 different sets locally but none of them look even close to the pics of original bikes.

The 'general export' style bar fitted for all years is part 56111-31000, which is still available from Suzuki. 8)

Thanks for that. I've checked through the local Suzuki dealer and the cost of a shiny new one is $192 ... :shock:

That price was in NZD ? If so, then about $149 USD. I suspect it would be the same here in Canada although I haven't checked :? The price in the USA is $75 plus whatever shipping via mail would cost. I buy most of my bits from these folks if you want to check it out. Alternatively perhaps one of the American board members could help you out. 8)
