About the Suzuki GSX1100
Carburetor and brake service parts for the original GSX1100 model codes.
Suzuki introduced the GSX1100E in 1980 as the successor to the GS1000, with a four-valve-per-cylinder DOHC engine. The full designation matters today: an E-model brake repair and an L-model carburetor rebuild call for different application checks.
Choose the brake component you are rebuilding
A master-cylinder kit services the hydraulic control at the lever; caliper seals service the unit at the wheel. Identify which assembly needs work before choosing parts. For carburetor service, record the markings on the fitted rack as well as the motorcycle’s model code. The examples below show the supported applications for each job.
