Hope everyone had a good Christmas and New Year.

Bike in question: 2000 Suzuki GZ125 Maruader

I noticed last night that I seem to have lost the left hand side chrome cylinder head cover/trim. Neutral

I noticed when I got the bike that part of the bracket that holds the chrome trim to the top of the cylinder head was broken, although it still seemed relatively sturdy.

Apparently not.

So I have lost the chrome trim, the 2 big allen bolts that secure it to the bracket, and the bracket that secures it to the cylinder head. The 2 bolts that hold the bracket to the cylinder head are still in place, the bracket has just snapped off.

Anyone know any breakers that might have such parts? not sure I fancy getting r@ped at a Suzuki dealers.

many thanks

Yes it does, and I've just bought that bit. Laughing

I saw it last night on ebay but wanted to check elsewhere first.

Still need the bracket and allen bolts though.

Just for giggles, here's the dealer prices:

£20.33 bracket
£76.84 chrome bit Shocked
£5.18 for each bolt

Yeah, but having a cruiser type bike with a fair amount of chrome on and now having a manky cylinder head half on show = -100 pride points.

@ Mikey - yeah, asked him last night mate, but no joy unfortunately.
