    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.

Im about 99.9% sure these will fit the 78 1000C Im rebuilding but the "vehicles it fits" list goes as late as 1980 and doesnt list any 78 models. I once read that the 77 and 78 750 boots were the same also..can anyone confirm if the Ebay ones are correct?? Can anyone thats used the ones listed in the parts fiche for the 750s confirm the fitment???

Doubtful
All the bikes listed in the sale have BS carbs, yours has VMs
 
Chuck, IIRC, when I purchased new ones for my 79 1000E, I got them from Z1 and they were supposed to be fitted to a 750. Apparently the same carbs and I had no problems with them.

This. Suzuki never sold the 1000 boots for VM carbs separate to the airbox. The 750 boots fit well - the 'trumpets' inside the airbox are about 5mm shorter but it doesn't affect performance at all
