    1983 GS750E Project Bike

    This is what I am starting with:


    It needs some work but I am going to fix it over the winter.

    I need to sandblast and paint the headers.

        Nice bike to build from. They are a good all around machine and the engines will take alot of abuse for a plain bearing crank. My 700 has been flogged hard and still runs like new.

            Once some of my parts arrive (thanks SVSooke), I will get started. I also just ordered the "O" rings and stainless bolt kit from http://www.cycleorings.com/intake.html

            Once these arrive I will finish cleaning the carbs and hopefully get it fired up and see if it actually runs! In the meantime, I need to change the oil and get some new sparkplugs. I might need a new battery. The PO gave me a fairly new one he had, but it overflowed while in the bike so it might be toast.

            I found this bike on my local Kijijii in Kingston. I really like the colour and may paint mine red, although I may go metallic candy apple.

                Nice project, I see you're a Bills fan, I'm from Buffalo...I feel your pain lol.

                Have you considered ceramic coating the exhaust after sand blasting? I've heard good things about it.

                    Nice bike!

                    I also picked up a '83 750 a few weeks ago and will be working on it through the winter... I'll be following your build!

                      I haven't started my rebuild yet, too much other stuff to do, not enough time - yet! I want it done by spring so I better get started soon.

                        Update on my project:

                        I needed a lot of parts so I bought a parts bike:

                        It's another 1983 GS750E with only 5400 kms on it

                        Brand new tires

                        Look at the motor and carbs

                              So now I have a stock pipe and a supertrapp, not sure which will go on but more the likely the Supertrapp will. I have all the parts that are missing from the burgandy one already on the white one. I think once I am done, I will part out what's left. I also have title for both.
