    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.

Go to the Home page of the GSresources site, then to the Links. Under Manuals you have several places to search for a manual, but the only manual available for your bike is the '83 GS750e Factory manual with a supplement for the '85 700. A manual will occassionally pop up on Ebay.

Check on Ebay for a tail light and for the front master cylinder your options are most any bike of the same vintage with dual disks up front.

For parts wanted.. you may want to post your wish list in the Parts Wanted Forum :D

Good luck.
 
is the master cylinder the part that is mounted on the handle bars?.. cus that's the bit I am looking for.

Why do you think you need a new one? Unless it is physically broken you can usually clean and or rebuild.
 
the screws that hold the lid down are extremely rusted and I am afraid if I try to open it they would strip/break. also the "Glass" to check the level is totally scratched to heck ad can't see through it.
 
Don't worry about the screws - just be carefull

Hi there ... my buddy had the problem w/ the master cylinder on his GPZ550 ... he just took it into the shop, and they drilled out the screws and used slightly bigger ones ... it's a bit of a bitch if you can't get them out yourself, but it only cost him maybe $30 Canadian funds.
 
I have an extra one of those laying around but it prob. would need rebuilt. I had the same problem with mine though. First, try an impact driver...they work wonders. if that doesn't work just drill the heads off the screws. Go to the suzuki shop and pick a couple up. they are like $.89 per. pick a drill bit just a bit bigger and drill the head off. the cap will pop off and you will have two little studs left sticking up. A pair of vise grips will finish the job nicely. If this doesn't work email me at trevorreilly@yahoo.com and i will dig the extra up...i think its at my apt down here in philly.
