Hi everyone!
I am new to the forum as I just picked up my first GS. I purchased a 1984 GS750E(Will post a pic or two soon). I understand these are the same bikes as the GS700E in the United States(I am up in Canada). So I need some help from you guys if possible because well I am having issues as to a couple things
-Is there a repair manual I can purchase for this bike?If so which one?
-What is the difference specifically between the GS700E and the GS750E from 1984? I understand that it is pretty much the same bike but as far as parts go are they the exact same?
-What model parts interchange with this bike? I have seen lots of parts for 85 GS700E's and 83 GS750E's. Not sure if these are the same as my bike or not.
-How important is the stock airbox? Is this a part that I can find with relative ease?(It has air pod filters right now from the last owner)
-Anything I should look out for?
Overall I am super excited to start working on the bike, I will probably put it back to all stock if possible. It needs some work for sure. If not just the paint then the pegs being wobbly and the pipes aren't lining up properly. Everything supposedly works though. Haven't really been able to test it as I got it as a straight trade for my old Kawasaki kz440 ltd.
Please teach me your guy's tricks with your superior knowledge of GS bikes and have a great day!
