I am working on a 16v 1981 GS650L chain drive bike and I have been searching the parts fische for some part numbers for airbox to carb boots. Every thing I look up for that year shows the 8v head. Am I missing something? This bike does not seem to be listed anywhere. I have looked at G&S suzuki and suzukipartsmonster. help please
 
Alphasports have good exploded parts diagrams .

Good luck .

Cheers , Simon .
 
Just looked at Alpha and they don't know the chain drive model either. I will have to go out and look tomorrow and make sure its a 650. I do know it is a 16v though. Square cam covers and clamped on intake manifolds. The airbox is even different from what they show in the parts fische. It has the 2 piece system. looks like the one on my gs1000E

GS 650s were not 16 valve engines, chain drive or shaft. The 8 valve head is identical on the 650E and the 650G, as well as the L deviants, and even the Katanas..
 
Ok its a 8v head. None of the pictures shows the clamp on carb to head intake boots like they have on the 16v heads. They are only showing the bolt on boots and the ones on the bike are definitely like the ones on a 16v head. Could someone have put a 16v head on this bike in the past? Is that a mod for the 650? I do not know the history of this bike and I know it sat around for a long time.
 
I will look tomorrow and report back to you guys tomorrow. You have been a great help again, as usual
 
I looked through all the of 650 models on Suzuki Connect which is the dealer Electronic Parts Catalog and I do not find any models with the clamp on intake manifolds for the model you have listed. The only 16 v motors back in 80-81 were 750's
