The fuel pump plate on a Suzuki GW250 could still be held on by silicone applied at the factory, as it is mentioned that Suzuki applies silicone in some places.

- W/R (White with Red tracer)

@Mr. Anderson thank you sir, I really appreciate the help. Because the bike is no longer sold and my bike is a Canadian model. It's harder to find parts for. But it's a great bike and holds up to punishment very very well
