    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.

Hi,
picked up a old GS. It runs but needs a lot of work. From the frame, the VIN is listed as
GS750G-2147.

what year is this bike and any other info?

thanks
don
 
There should be manufactured date, on the VIN tag, on the neck. If it is still there....
 
The “G” (=shaft drive) GS750 was not sold in North America. I’ve found very little info on them, and I don’t find it at all on the parts site from Europe that seems to otherwise be very thorough. https://www.cmsnl.com/
 
Not sure if the 750G was sold outside of the home Japanese market, as it was designed to meet a capacity / licencing limit there.
 
It did come from Japan, and based on limited research, I think its a 1981 based on color.

1980 or 1981 for sure. From what I understand Japan had a cc limit set at 750 back in the day, that's why they didn't get the 850 shafty.

Good luck with your project
 
Looks like they robbed the leftover parts bins for the home market special.
Those solid discs and the horrible hockey-puck front calipers...pure 79 parts.
