    Does anyone know what size socket is needed to remove the CS sprocket nut on a `79 GS 1000E?

    I think it's a 32 from memory. There are 2 different sizes from Suzuki & one is a little bigger than the other. Possibly a 32 & a 36mm. 32mm should get away with 1" 1/4 socket

      I believe you are correct at 32 mm.

        I thought this was going in a whole 'nother direction.
        I always use vicegrips.
