    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.

Is it a GS or GSX?

Greetings-

I'm hoping someone can clear something up for me. The 1983 GS 750-
when I ask the dealer about parts, they refer to it as a GS750E. The
Suzuki cycles website ( http://www.suzukicycles.org/All-Suzuki/all_suzuki_models.html ) refers to it as a GSX. So what is it really? When did the bikes shift from GS to GSX & GSXR?

Thanks for your help.

GS has 8 valves, GSX has 16 valves and GSXR has oil cooled motor.
 
bikes with 16v engines were marketed in the USA as the GS----E models (from 1980) while in europe and other countries the same bikes were called GSX----

to make things more confusing for you fellas in the states... some 8v engines were still called E in 1980 and 1981 (this denoted a higher spec 8V model compared to the basic model)
