GS750L - Putting a fuel guage back on

I'm also interested in this because I'm using a tank that has no fuel sensor but have a harness and set of gauges that have the fuel guage. I'd love to be able to make it work... What would it take to add a sensor to a tank that doesn't have one?

or is there an aftermarket alternative - like those used for marine applications that could be fitted?

Apparetly it s a pain in the arse to add a fuel float/sensor to an older tank. Hard not to get leaks. Ive finally decided on a fuel cap with fuel float on that. Just got to get the measurements for the fuel filler hole...

If you have got all the bits and just need a tank Id suggest just replace your tank for a more modern one. Its seems (Not 100% sure, so check) that anything after 1980 that was an L model (GS750L etc) had the fluel float/sensor on. Just look underneath the tank for a circular sensor... also check the mounting bolts as some had just the 1 and some had 2.
 
Heh that just goes to show there is more than one way to skin a cat. Pretty cool

I did consider that but I've already put some time in to shaping this one and like how it came out / really want to use it. Surprised no one has done this already. Would it not be as simple as drilling holes in the tank and using the same parts off a tank that has it?
 
Well thats what I thought but everyone has said its difficult to do... maybe you could buy an old tank and try it. If it does work you might have a customer here with a tank that needs a float/sensor lol :-\\\
