just doing the daughters suzuki gs250t 1981 front brake calliper and needed a new dust seal and piston seal.
.
luckily i had a spare bongo front calliper kit in stock.
.
the seals were exactly the same although the bongo piston is deeper
.
so anyone looking for an odd front calliper seal etc the suzuki kit is perfect, listed for the gs250,400,450 and others all early 80's.

they are available cheaper if you shop round, just used this as an eg.

Does that make her bike a Suzazda or a Mazuki? Useful info. I get my bike seals from Wemoto, might be worth a try.

they do them, but dont buy the piston kit, just the seal kit. the piston is not as deep as the bongo.
