Hi, Anyone help me out and got a scrap GPZ right hand handlebar switch to sell/part out. I only need the red plastic starter button as annoyingly mine fell off somewhere last week. (See pic)
thanks

Greetings AJH...do you know if the right-hand switch gear (and the button) differ between the 1981 and 1982 GPZ1100  year models? The reason I ask, is that I have a right-hand switch but am unsure what year I have.

button looks the same if ebaayy part 178477391155 is correct. listed as an 81 with the 81 part number. 46091-1155. 82 = 46091-1214.

thanks for the reply, I believe they're the same but looks like youre in the U.S and Im in the UK so probably not cost effective just for a button.

I will have a look in the next couple of days, I think it may be the same as my 82 Ltd, if so it's yours. Are you still at the Chiswick address I sent the R/R to ?
