    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    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.

My closest Suzuki Dealer is 55 miles away and I don't want to drive up there [-( . Where can I order gaskets from online?
 
Get a silicone gasket from Real Gaskets.

http://www.realgaskets.com/files/motorcycle.htm

They're the same price as the OEM one, they can be reused indefinitely, and THEY DON'T LEAK. I have them for both my 750 and 850.

The '78 750 takes the same one as the early 850 P/N RG-GS850-G1 The 850 is just a bored out 750. It uses the same head and valve cover.

They're great people to deal with as well.

Pay attention to the directions about torqueing the bolts. You need to go only about 1/2 to 3/4 turn after finger tight, and you should check them after the first time or two the engine gets hot.

If you do a search here you'll find other info about them.
 
I second the Realgasket advice. Those things are INCREDIBLE!

Another good source for valve cover gaskets and lots of other assorted stuff we need is Cycle Recycle II in Indianapolis.

I used realgaskets.com on both bikes. The are about the same price and they work perfectly and will last forever. Don't forget the breather cover while your at it.
 
Are the 1978 and 1979 the same gasket? There is not a breather gasket listed for a 1978 gs750
