Today whilst filling up my steed I managed to break the bracket that holds on the fuel cap cover (circled).

I have found a website that stocks the part BUT I'm unsure if I order This or This or both!

Any help appreciated including alternative suppliers.

I think it's the hinge fuel lid not the other one. icon_thumbs_up.gif

No, I was reaching over to put the nozzle back into the petrol pump after filling up and caught it with my leg! :oops:

Further to the above, A.J Sutton have the hinge on back order and can't confirm when in stock. I then emailed a few London dealers and those that bothered to respond to me all say theres at least a 3 week wait for the hinge. :shock:

So, after an internet trawl, I contacted these guys http://www.suzuki-spares.co.uk/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; by email and, I swear, literally within 2 minutes I had a reply with the price and guaranteed delivery before 1pm on Friday.... Now that’s service. :kiss:
