    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

    From Boulivard Suzuzki parts finder fuel cocks GS750 44300-45011 82.78 GS1000 44300-44011 267.29 If they were interchangeable the part number would be the same. I'm not sure of the spacing of the mounting bolts on the 750 vs the 1000.

    1979 GS1000E Project

    I believe the 78 and 79 carbs are the same except for the choke lever location. 78 directly on the carb , 79 on the dash/handlebar, with cable to the carbs.

    One simple thing to rule out is that your choke is giving you the fuel you need to start.If it's an 80 you have the dreaded petcock.

    My next vintage big inline four bike

    I am amazed at the parts one can still get for 30 year old Suzuki's as well. And Ebay still provides some decent used parts for the discerning eye.

    Lay on a coat of petroleum jelly for a while then as suggested below steel wool and continuous application WD40 or similar to minimize scratching.

    brake overhual

    My preference is to run both lines to a junction and then one line up to the MC. Z1 Enterprises has all sorts of lines in different lengths. Correct length is important,you don't want binding(short) or extra line sticking out all over.
