About the Suzuki GN250
Keep this Suzuki single’s carburetor, fork and brake applications tied to the exact year.
Suzuki’s 1982 GN250E used a 249 cc air-cooled four-stroke single with SOHC valve gear and cruiser styling. Across the GN250 family, that shared model identity does not remove year and equipment differences. Carburetor diaphragms and caliper internals need closer checks than a broad family label.
Preserve the GN250 diaphragm’s missing 1984 entry
The slide diaphragm covers 1982–1983 and 1985; 1984 is not included. The oil filter and fork seals have broader 1982–1988 coverage, while the caliper kit identifies 1988 only. For a GN250F, GN250E or imported variant, compare the exact designation and fitted assembly with the product.
Know your GN250 before choosing partsGN250 repair checkpoints
Use the model, year and fitted component together when comparing these applications.
Carburetor diaphragm
1982–1983 and 1985 example
Do not fill the 1984 gap by assumption. Match the carburetor and diaphragm profile as well as the listed year.
Brake repair
1988 caliper-kit example
Identify the fitted caliper and internal pieces. The wider oil-filter range does not extend the caliper kit to earlier years.

Identify your motorcycle before orderingGN250 identification checklist
- Frame and model
- Record the complete stamped model and frame/VIN characters.
- Engine and fitted assembly
- Record engine markings separately, then compare the component being repaired.
- Assembly comparison
- Compare the fitted assemblies with the correct model-year parts diagram or service manual, especially when an engine, carburetor, wheel or front end has been replaced.
