    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've got a 1978 GS 750. Needs a seat and a Gas tank, plus a whole bunch of other stuff. Any one know how I can find out what parts will fit my bike from others? I have some friends who are going to the swap meet in Caryle PA in a couple of weeks so I want to tell them what to look for. Thanks
 
a 550 tank should fit...and i believe a 550 seat will fit. make sure are both 77-79...i know for sure 80+ seats will not fit your bike.
 
I have the same question for my 80 850L. Mainly regarding the dinky tank. Anyone know what fits or how to find out?
 
dew,

I think you should forget about getting a bigger tank and just devise an engine that runs on hydrated sucrose. i.e. Dew. That way, you only have to remember to fill up one tank for all your fuel needs.

I dunno. I had a tank which I thought would fit, as it looked the same. Once I got it home I found out it was shorter! Could it have been a 550 tank I had? Yeah, yeah. I know. Hold it up to the computer so you can see it. :roll:
 
A GS550 tank is smaller and probably won't fit.
As far as I know, 550 and 750 seats (77/78/79) are the same.
