It attaches a front reflector to the bikes front fork - screw hole. Any ideas anyone?...It would be greatly appreciated.
FYI, Tried Bike bandit and ronayers and couldn't find.

Thanks

That look like a screw used to hold down a motherboard in a computer.  I doubt that it is that large but who knows.  Have you tried hardware stores or do you have place that sell strictly fastners?

Take it to the dealer, they'll find a part that'll work,
maybe even off a different bike-Suz has a lot of interchangeable little parts...
  A good parts guy will take it to the back, go look in his parts bins and try to
match it...  Just take all the items so he'll be able to find the one little part
easier...

I won't make any promises but I know I did have them somewhere out in the shop, I use the space for driving lights...I'll take a look and if I find them you can have them just drop an addy

Thanks anyhow Man, I got them ordered in from a stealership. Price $15 CDN, better than $40 anyhow. Went to the bike show today, they(Stealership) dropped us some "comp" tickets for the show (which we were gonna buy anyway) so I figure they ended up being free anyways.

Crap!!  You could have had mine.  I took those ugly reflectors off anyhow.  They are sitting in my tool room with all the other removed weight misc. clutter from the bandit.
