    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.

Hi,

Can anyone tell me what model/year exhausts will fit on to a 1979 GS-850? From what I can tell, the 1980 model 850 would work, but what about later years and different displacements? I saw a set off of a 750 for sale, but when I checked the parts nos. on partsbandit, the numbers weren't even close, so now I'm hoping on of you guys can shed some light on the subject.

thanks in advance,
Morgan
 
That is the 64 million dollar question. You have now officially reopened this can of worms.

I just bought a exhaust to do the opposite of your question (1979 exhaust of a 1980 GS850G bike). My original 1980 has a chamber under the oil pan that looks like a "H". It connects the the twin exhaust cans to all headers. One thing about the 1980 style exhaust is that the oil ban has threads in it to mount the exhaust. My 1979 version exhaust does not have the "H" piece or mounts on the oil pan base. Beside of that difference, they both bolt up the same.

As far as the 750s exhaust.. dont know.. I know the 850 has the "GS850" stamped on the exhaust pipe.. unlike the airbox that says "GS750, GS850, GS850G"

I hope this helps!
