    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.

I want to take off the exhaust on my bike to paint it, but I need gaskets first, what am I looking for?

1983 gs400E tscc

also are there gaskets at the muffler? my book says no, but there is some carbon buildup...

thanks!
 
hmm, this is going to be a common issue with this bike methinks, gs400e not listed....


I just hate to pull it all apart to find its some weird triangle shaped gasket with a reverse metric hypo-flange-amajiggy...

thanks though!
 
I don't think they made a 400 in 1983. I'm guessing you have a late 1970's model.
 
Everywhere except the US they did.

It was called a GSX400E, but in Canada it retained the GS name.

I just don't know which exhaust gaskets will fit it is all.
 
Order 'em from your favorite source for Suzuki parts.

The Suzuki fiche will also tell you if there are any gaskets or sealing sleeves between the other parts of the exhaust system.
 
I believe that bike uses the same pistons as the '83 GS750E. If so the gaskets for a 750 will probably be the same as well.
