    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.

Hello guys,

As a newbie here, i'd like to say hi to everyone! It's such a pleasure to be here! Whenever i needed some help with my GS, forum was,and still is great source of knowledge, so i decided to sign in. Recently i'm working on my 1982 GS 750 (GS75X,tscc engine) and i have a problem with exhaust camshaft. It's in pretty bad shape,with a lot of pittings on the lobes. I want to replace it, but it's quite hard to get one (in Europe). I've heard that cams from gs 1100 (idk which year precisely) should fit without any problems, but i'm not 100% sure. Could You please help me out here, and tell me which cams i can use instead of a stock ones (from gs750)??
P.S. I'd like to apologize for my english - it's not my native language.

Take care!!
 
The 1100 cams are the same, with a little more lift and duration, must use the 750 sprockets. The 750 exhaust cams usually have split rockers, they will chew up an 1100 cam. I used two pair of intake rockers on mine. The 1100 rockers are not the same width at the valves as the 750 ones.
 
Yes, 16 valve GS1100 cams will fit. The 1150 cams too, but there is no tach drive gear on those.
