    Whose driven on the left side of road? Any timely tips?

    I've swapped back & forth regularly for the past 50yrs and 100% agree Brendan, after driving for a long period a temporary stop for fuel or food etc. is without doubt the most dangerous time to get caught out.

    installing a volt meter on gs1100e

    After frying a battery on a GT750 and getting stranded years ago I've used one of these on several bikes since. They work perfectly easy to install and unobtrusive. Simple yellow, green, red indicator to warn of over or under charging...

    Hello from FL:gs750 Suzuki

    I bought the exact same V&H pipe brand new a few years ago for my '78 GS750, the docs in the box said with stock airbox & filter no jet changes required. I've probably still got the info sheet somewhere.

    Still not right, FFS.

    Well first off and most importantly I hope your get rid of whatever it is you've got PDFQ Bob. You don't mention how the plugs looked during your various tests, I'm guessing they must be very rich or very lean. Rob/Zed1015's help was invaluable when I has similar issues as after years of old...

    GS1000 Fuel Flow Problems

    Ain't nothing wrong with running an inline filter, in fact it can only be a plus, just as long as it's not a small 50 cent Chinese one and you change them regularly. Only my view of course after doing exactly that for 50+ years :rolleyes:

    GS1000 Fuel Flow Problems

    If the fuel level was low then that's exactly what you'd expect the fuel tap to do when the bikes running. If the tank isn't low then everything points to either the diaphragm being Donald or the fuel tap (On" tube/passage being blocked.

    Signs of fuel in petcock vacuum pipe.

    Appreciate your thoughts, just to be clear the pipe wasn't connected to the petcock and the was a small amount of fuel in the end when I unblocked it after running the engine up for while using a remote tank. I just can't think how or why it'd be there when the vacuum is pulsing/pulling (I've...

    Signs of fuel in petcock vacuum pipe.

    I've recently run the bike up a few times after a rebuild using a remote fuel tank to visibly check to leaks & balance the carbs etc., whilst doing so I had the petcock vacuum pipe on carb #3 plugged with a bolt. When I removed the bolt ready to connect to the petcock once the tank had been...

    In-Line fuel filter?

    Suzuki fitted them to some models, my brother had a mid 2000's GSX750 that had one as standard so guess one of those would do the job if you wanted to fit one.

    '78 GS750 fork oil level/air gap

    As part of the recommissioning check list I wanted to change the fork oil. I appreciate that I might need/benefit from new springs too at some point but until I get some miles on her I'm not able to tell. I've found the capacity spec (180cc) in the workshop manual link Nessism kindly posted for...
