    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...

Hey, good idea, Robinjo. I'll dig out my digital. I think Damien has a digital, too.

He sure does :lol: now he just has to learn to resize them to 640x480 using MS Paint :wink:
 
Hehehe...that goes way back. I'm always resistant to resizing.

;D

Hey all, I just found out that the tank on my bike is actually a 3.4 gallon tank. I guess running out at 2.23 gallons makes more sense now. I'll be upgrading to any of the GS750E(x) tanks this weekend hopefully.

Thanks all and thanks to my new manual too hehe.

3.4

3.4

Well, if it is, it's from a 1979 LN model....... :roll:

(Maybe Harrison stuck it on there when you weren't looking! :lol: )
 
It could be. I've found parts on this bike that dont necessarily correspond with the VIN number and manual information. The tank may have been swapped out as well.

Hmmmmm

Hmmmmm

That's interesting...I'm surprised it would fit but according to my manual, that was the only GS750 that came with a 3.4 tank. :!: :?: :!:
 
Really? The tank on the bike looks like it fits the way I would imagine stock would be but it's just too bloody small. I'm not used to it is all.
Once I get the "E" model 5.0 gallon tank I'll be back to good.

Dm of mD
 
Yeah

Yeah

Yeah, that seems odd to me,too. Because of the difference in volume, I'd think the underside configuration would be far different. I suppose the manual could be wrong but I think the part numbers for 80 and 81 are the same and mine is a 4.0 for sure. :o
 
Hmmm...I'm confused. I faintly recall putting about 3 and change into the tank way back when I first filled it up after the paint job I gave it. I'm still going to get an "E" model tank this weekend though. The tunnel should be the same hopefully. These bikes all have the same backbone on the frame right?
