    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...

    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.

I'm sorry, I don't understand what your saying? Can you clarify? Sorry, I'm very knew to working on bikes.
 
Yea I have no idea what's stock and what's not since I'm not familiar wit this model bike. Here's a pic of the carbs.
 
Carbs appear to be from early model GSX-R (flat slide design), or something of the sort... but don't quote me on that. I believe your particular bike would come stock with BS 32mm CV carbs.
 
There is nothing about those carbs that say "GS".
I would have expected the 750s to have BS32 carbs, same as the 850s.
 
I looked on the neck of the bike and it says GS75X. There's a stamp on the rear that says GSX750. Is that different?

What he said.
I'd think it prudent to get the stock BS32s and make your life way easier. Here's some on ebay: http://www.ebay.com/itm/1982-SUZUKI...Parts_Accessories&hash=item3cd41fd6b9&vxp=mtr Not saying buy this particular set, mind you; i think you can find 'em cheaper, but plan on a rebuild. May even post to "Wanted-Parts" section here.
Good luck with the project!
 
As of now I can't put a lot of money into the bike so I have to be selective on what I spend my money on. I would like to at least get these carbs working and then later on possibly replace them. Is there a way to tell what type of carbs they are and maybe buy a carb kit so I can clean it up? Should I start with taking it off and doing a good cleaning? I'm reading the Mikuni BS (CV) Carb rebuild tutorial and curious if the carbs I have on currently is similar enough to follow this document for cleaning?

Okay, here is what I see. First the brake line T is there, the PO just remove the right hand brake line and used a shorter Banjo bolt. All you have to do is get the new lines and the right (longer Banjo bolt and new copper crush washers. Pull the carbs off and take some different angle pics of them. Someone then can better identify them. If you want some more info on the bike you can PM me since I have the same bike. I know just about everything there is to know on it lol.
 
So I found out the carbs on my bike are from a late 80`s GSR so my question is it worth upgrading the seals and orings On this one or buying a stock carb? I don't have a lot of money now so if I can get away with keeping them I will but if they will cause me headaches down the road I don't want to waste my money. If I do buy a new set of carbs can you look at this link and tell me if these are the ones that I need?

Also, I just bought a petcock with the lever assuming that it wouldn't hit the carbs because at the time I didn't know the carbs on here we're not stock. If I do go with the stock carbs will this petcock need to be the style that doesn't have the lever?
