There are quite a few electronic components made by Mitsubishi for suzuki bikes.
Wouldn't be surprised to see the had some more joint ventures I the past.

If you click on the link it shows both a Suzuki S and the Mitsubishi emblem on both valves.Think Suzuki farmed the valves out to Mitsubishi.

suzuki valves
Ok, I've been measuring valves and i think there standard. Inlet 36mm ex 30mm, no port work and standard size pistons so no tuning mods. Mitsubishi must have made valves for Suzuki. For info the engine # is gs750 18478 and the bike was registered in UK February 2 1977. I bought this bike as a none runner last year and i don't know a lot of it's history other than the engine noise which was the cam followers.My bikes 79 GS1000 1085 checked and approved by stator the GSR mascot and 77 GS750 with 850 top end, GS850g, and my eldest sons 78 GS550, youngest sons GS125.
