My build 78 suzuki gs750

[NoH2Oh]

"Lol what fuse box there is none."
First time I took my cover off to check the fuses I thought the same thing. Holy crap....this all runs on one glass tube relic. And it was cracked at that. Luckily the factory backup was still in the protective plastic . Things were so much easier back then.

Good luck w/the project.

Never really realized how much the frame looks like a Japanese featherbed. With a bit added bracing.

Carbs look good. The best way to get to know your bike is to tear it down and put back together. I've gone thru just about everything on my 850 and it's such a satisfying feeling in the end. Ya, I've had lots of help but it's all in the learning for me.

It appears to be a nice looking bike now but It's gonna be a better running bike when you get it done.

Thanks and yea it's a working progress.

Thanks and it's gonna be a slow build.

on your first posted pic of bike....first thing that grabbed my attention are those nice red calipers! Have fun with project and keep us up to date!

Yea it came like that but they will be up for grabs once I remove them and upgrade..

What did you paint carbs with? Is it gas proof? I want to paint mine also so not sure if I should just clear with spraymax or what?

I used auto zone caliper paint. Once there painted I baked them in the oven for an hour at 200. I'm not sure if it's gas proof I hope it rest ands it. I guess we will find out lol.

I didn't have anything it was straight hook up. I redid to how I like it and feel much safer about it.

Well nothing much going on except the bike is on the road. But have a bit of a problem keeping it running when it's warmed up. I did pick up a new rear swingarm and tire not sure if it will go on the bike yet. It's a 05 gsxr 1000.

Just need the brake setup
And a little clip of it running


Now I need some help when she is warmed up and it idles down she stalls out. Starts back up right away but when I take off she bogs like it's starving. Any ideas?

Carbs clean? Valves adjusted?

Yeah your carbs look great, but I have never heard of using CLR to clean them.
