    are you sure it's 1993? Is it a GSX-1100G?
    1982 GS1100G

      Or did you fat-finger it and mean '83?

        No it's a 93 gsx1100g. Suzuki re-made them for a couple years. It has adjustable (non-shim type) valves but I can't find any specs anywhere. Don't think it was a big seller.

          Look up the Katana GSX1100F and GSX750F 89-97.
          Same engine, valve train.
          1982 GS1100G-
          1990 GSX750/1127
          1987 Honda CBR600F Hurricane
          1985 Kawasaki GPz750

            Yes, we know about the bike, but you left out the "X" in the original post, so we had to play "20 Questions".

            We still have 18 questions to go.

              1995 Katana GSX750F valve clearances are:

              Intake: .004" - .006"
              Exhaust: .007" - .009"
