    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.

Hey guys, would like to do an 850 top end to my 78 gs750, my question is, can I use my VM carbs with 80 and up gs850 jugs or am I forced to use CV carbs, obviously I know I will have to re jet, just don't know if VM carbs and boots will fit?

one other her question is are std. Size 850 piston rings still available or are they discontinued?

cheers

Darren
 
Just use your 750 head on top. ;) The 750 and 850 heads are the same part numbers. '79=small ports and VM carbs. '80-up= large ports and CV carbs.
 
Thanks GSX1000E, I didn't actually use my brain before posting this question................:rolleyes: do you or anyone else know if std. size gs850 rings are still available? I see a few sets on ebay but what about OEM suzuki?

These guys don't have the best prices, but they have the best fishe so you can check parts availability.
 
I just called my local dealer and they are still available but pricey, $56.99 a set, I'm sure I could find them cheaper somewhere else.
