80? GS-750 question

[scamp62]

Have a 80? GS-750 that I got in boxes and pulled from a dumpster so I?m working with no prier knowledge of how it was before it was taken apart, so I really appreciateall of your knowledge out there ! so on my electrical board there is a small hook, upper left that I don?t know what goes there ? I looked at the parts page for electrical and they show nothing there ? is this correct ?

Pretty clean looking for dumpster find. I'll guess the hook holds the side cover on- a 750 owner will know.

That hook holds the turn signal control box. There is a rubber holder that goes around the device with a slot for the hook.
it is very clean. I would still clean that crimp style fuse box and do the quick test. Add the grounds as well. I would recommend the sh775 but I got away with just cleaning the electrical vet well as confirmed by very low voltage drops.

I never new what went there either.
I have the same blank hook.

The blinker relay is located on the backbone of your frame.
And the control uni9t he is talking about would not be found on your model is my guess as it is not on my L.

I guess it will just have to remain a great mystery. Of course if you bothered to look at a real manual.................???

My '82 750E is the same, nothing is attached to the hook. The blinker relay is mounted to the frame under the gas tank close to the seat.

Nothing there on an 80/81 750E. No evidence of anything ever being there on my bike and I found a pic in the service manual that shows it unpopulated. Suzuki probably reused the plate from another GS that did have something mounted there, probably a turn signal control unit. Good place to mount up some accessory or another.

If anybody was actually looking for the purpose for the hook it is plainly displayed in multiple locations in the OEM manual (each model/year listed).

My 81 GS750EX also did not have anything located at that location, but the manual is clear there had been an intent to located the turn control unit there as they did do later. The 82/83 GS110)EZ/ED for example use that location.

Yup, that is the way it is, everything is there that is supposed to be there, though that R/R ought to changed out for a SH-775 or a Compufire. A Compufire resides there on my bike.
