    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.

SAVAGE

Hi,
Does anyone know if the cam covers for the GS1000 range are interchangeable ? or is there some variation ?

Cheers.
 
Not exactly sure of when the change happened, but on 850 covers there is a later version with more bolt holes.
 
Are we talking about 8V motors?

Going by pics of the heads and the gaskets and the part numbers.

GS1000 78-81 all models (G, E L whatever) will interchange (Suzuki PN 11171-49002 SUPERCEEDED 11171-49000 and 11171-49001)

GS750 77-79 and GS850 79-81 share the same cover (suzuki PN 11171-45000) as each other but it's different than the GS1000
The bolts all look the same as the GS1000 but the cam chain tunnel is different.

The 82-83 GS850 gained the extra bolt
