    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.

When I am looking to buy parts for my 78 GS 1000 there is often no option for just a plain GS 1000. Usually there is more than 1 option, 1000C or 1000N or 1000E... What diagram do I click on?

And, is the VIN a factor???
Thanks
 
Depends on which model you have. There are some subtle differences between the models. Post a pic and your VIN and I'm sure it will be identified.
 
The wire wheel, single disc brake front wheel 1978 GS1000 is a 1000C. C = 1978. The 1978 mag wheel, two disc brake in front bike is a GS1000EC, although the C is typically dropped in this instance.

Here she is boys. That is not the original tank, but I am hoping to salvage it.
Thanks

I'm going to try to attach another pic here, but I'm not sure the forum will let me...

Notice in the 2 fuel tank diagrams, there is the 1000C & the 1000N

Now Nessim tells me that typically, the C is dropped.
I'm not catching on to the Suzuki way of thinking here...

Thanks

The 1000N/EN tank doesn't have the indent through the emblem like the 1000C/EC tanks did.
