Suzuki / 81 RM 250 Bush
« on: July 31, 2017, 09:22:00 pm »
Hey all,

Im chasing a rear brake lever bush for an 81 250 X. Its the one thats pressed into the frame and the rear brake lever pivots on. Suzuki part number 09319-12022- NLA... There are some similar bushes getting around on ebay (09319-14003) but they are incorrect.

Mines worn out and the brake lever is sloppy.

Anyone got a lead on one of these suckers..?
