      I don't care if I get the exact ones, but it sure was nice to learn that these are available from the dealer - and at prices cheaper than they're showing on ebay! LOL!

            Trevor, your bike is spotlessly beautiful, don't you ever ride it?

              Never seen TDCC before. Sure that's not a typo?

                He rides the hell out of that thing. I think he's just that OCD and can't let it sit dirty. Lol

                  Lol...thanks retcol...like Spyder says, I ride the hell out of it! 20000kms in the last year. It just hit 50000kms last week.
                  Syder might also be right about the ocd thingy. I enjoy cleaning it almost as much as riding it.

                    Hi Ed,

                    At the risk of totally booting this thread sideways (apologies, Spyder):

                    Flyboy asked the same question over in this thread

                    Pretty much the same pictures there as above in post#15.

                    As I said, as far as I have been able to find out, the black TDCC emblems are specific to the 83 650G and GL. I think the 650GT (Euro model) had the same.

                    Although the inability to find one as a replacement part certainly had me doubting their validity, mine, GSJim's 650GD, Skateguy50's old 650GLD, and a newer member on here (Wingsconsin) who just posted a video of his GLD, all have the same TDCC emblem.

                    Pretty convinced it's not a typo, but just an oddity exclusive to the '83 650s

                      OK here's the break down of the TSCC and TDCC .TSCC is Twin Swirl Combustion Chamber,TDCC is Twin Dome Combustion Chamber.As far as I know only the 81-3 650's had TDCC.

                        The twin dome design is not exclusive to the GS650. During my search I found that Suzuki used the same design in other bikes, but the badges are not found on GSes apart from the 83 GS650.

                          That is very interesting. I like learning new oddities about the history of these machines... Thanks for sharing, and good luck on your quest for new ones...
