So am I reading correctly that the 83 GS1100 E models use the same oil filter that my 78 GS1000 does? Is the o-ring gasket the same too?

My 1981 GS1000 and 1983 GSX1100ESD use the same filter and O ring.

It's also the same filter for the 80 550 and the 82 850....
If you can get your mitts on a HIFLOFILTRO HF133, it fits my '78 750, and both my '82 and '83 1100Es. It also comes with two different O-rings! :-D

The filter is the same but the o-ring is different because the filter covers are different. You can tell if you look at the parts schematics closely. The '78 has 3 studs that hold the filter cover on and the o-ring has 3 squiggles (sorry for using technical terms) in the O. The '83 uses 5 studs on the cover so the o-ring has 5 squiggles in it and the o-ring itself is slightly thicker.
Like mcycle-nut said, some filters come with both o-rings. I have 3 spare that fit your '83. Let me know if you need them and I'll throw them in the mail.

You guys all rock. Thanks for the tips. Kevin, I'll look for that filter. Right now I have a pile of filters for my 1k bikes but no o-rings. Paul, I'll take you up on your kind offer. PM sent with address.
Thanks again everyone. There is no other place like the GSR!

If you have Advance Auto Parts in your area they carry Fram bike filters. The Advance close to my house didn't carry mine but they were happy to order them so I picked up half a dozen. They come with the o-rings. Between what I've found on the shelves and what they ordered I have enough to last about 40,000 miles on hand.Hoomgar said:

They don't carry anything motorcycle. I have Paparo for local pickup and if I am going to order it then I just use BB.

They would gladly order it in for me but they do not stock any motorcycle related items.
Around here we have a lot of bike dealerships that will get you bike parts but like I said I also have Joe who has all that stuff in stock and just gives it to me. I got an inspection last night and it and the sticker cost me nada
He has my 1000 in limbo remember? So the perks just pour in :lol:

He has to give me something so I don't draw and quarter him, wrap him in small packages and put him in my chest freezer you know? :twisted:
It pays off for tires too. I get tires at his wholesale cost (no mark up) and then free mounting and balancing. Other assorted bike parts for free too. He really is a nice guy but just has way more work than he can handle.
