    Hiya all!
    Just looking for some bits on a Katana 250 - does anyone know if the full brake assembly (master cylinders to calipers) for front and rear are the same as the GSF250F Across?

    I suspect it does but I've never owned either - scoping out a Katana to buy but it's missing these parts and I'm not too keen on an orphan.

    Can you look up part numbers and cross reference them?

    Hey Murdo.
    Not really hey, I need the part numbers for GSX250S and I can't find a microfiche or PDF available online. Webike has hard copy parts manuals in stock, I may have to bite the bullet and get one for a bike I don't own.
    Already got Across parts manuals.

    Thanks Grey - I would suspect the same thing from what I've seen on Jap bikes and cars but if it's no good that's a 170kg paperweight until I find the right bits.

    Hey Murdo - tried CMSL but they don't seem to do many JDM only models but they are very good at what they do - I got some parts recently for my WR200 (another orphan) that are unavailable new anywhere else and at a reasonable price.

    Kiffsta! That auction site is great! I'm looking for parts for a Y31 Gloria also, that will come in ultra handy. The year model is 1991 but they were only a 2 year production run anyhow.

    I'll buy the bike at the end of the week then. Thanks for the help fellas! If I hang onto it, I'll put it up in project bikes!
