at least you should be able to get a list of bikes that use the same part.

You might try gs resources .com, a site like this one but dedicated to the GS motorcycles.

I know where one is but I can't tell you cuz I'm going to pick it up next week. I found a complete gs in a boneyard last year. It's about 7 hours away and I finally got the time off to go get the set up.

Not sure what you need a GS axle for... why not use your KZ axle. All you need to do is change bearings, I suspect. Measure the ID, OD and thickness and you can buy the bearing at a bearing place. Most major cities have several stops that specialize in bearings.

Have you tried bike wreckers. Internet and print media should have names of bike wreckers. Most will ship UPS and charge 50% of OEM.
