    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.

I have a gs1000 motor that I am putting in the a moto cross frame :-D but before I do that I am going rebuild the motor. Does anyone know how I can figure out what year my engine is?? So I can get the right gaskets and seals.
 
the repair manual (for my 850) lists all the frame/engine numbers and corresponding years of manufacture
 
I really need to see some photos of this beastie.What class are you going to ride?????? Cheers,Simon.:shock:
 
I will be riding the open class (800cc and up). When I get the beast together I will try post some pics for everyone.
 
All the gasket sets are the same for the GS1000 8-valve, with exception probably to the shaft drive model.

Your engine is most likely a 78
 
Hard to be exactly sure, since Suzuki did not match frame and engine serial numbers. But Bruce is probably right, you have a '78.

All my '78 GS1000 motors have the following serial numbers. 111986, 123070, 107883, 101492, 116835. (wow, I got a lot of iron in the garage!)
