    Fuel sending unit parts fitment?

    Anyone now if a fuel float and sending unit from a 1981 GS 750 will fit a 1979 GS 850 ?

    The drain plates are the same OEM numbers on both models and all the other parts too , EXCEPT the float part number is off . Any suggestion's as I have a 79-850GS and can buy a clean 81-750GS part .

    The bend in float shaft seems different. Me, I'd take a chance and adjust it to fit!

      That's all I see different also . Thanks for your input . I could just switch shafts and use all the clean parts off the replacement . Or bend the shaft to match if possible . McGiver it !
